Bosnia and Herzegovina
When we told people back home that we were going to Bosnia and Herzegovina, everyone’s first comment was about the war. And this is one of the reasons that we wanted to come to this country: to learn about its vivid history, BUT to also see Bosnia and Herzegovina beyond the war.
The coffee is out-of-this-world good. Our caffeine intake in Bosnia and Herzegovina was ridiculous! The theatrics of serving it in a copper coffee pot and with a cube of lokum just enhances the experience further. Slowly sipping your coffee while people watching or discussing the world’s problems is a proper cultural practice.
The landscapes are mind-blowingly beautiful – Mount Trebevic, Jajce, Konjic, Una National Park are just some examples. The country is full of raw, natural beauty: rivers, waterfalls, lakes, mountains. You have to see it really understand the level of beauty we’re talking about!
If you are looking for a relatively unexplored destination full of charm, nature, history, friendly faces, and did I mention the great coffee?!, head over to Bosnia and Herzegovina.
