Check out our photos from Sarajevo. It was a brief visit, 4 days in Sarajevo and 3 in Mostar. But what a trip so much history, such good food and friendly people. Much of Sarajevo and Mostar still extensively damaged which was very strange, leaning a more in depth history was fascinating yet very sad and it is clear that feeling amongst certain people run high. The younger people seem happy to move on however there still seems strong feelings, justifiably in those who remember more difficult time more clearly. A truly tragic history that people are all to willing to discuss which was super interesting. The feeling we both got was that the tough time are far from over.
On a positive note, the people were super friendly and it was great sampling the local fare and talking to the locals. Can definitely see myself returning to the Balkans in the future.
Seeing Mostar and the Stari most (bridge) was incredible, one of those amazing sights you read about in a book and seems so exotic and a life away then to finally see it. Spectacular!
