Sarajevo Travel Blogs

Dubrovnik had left me a very good impression and Sarajevo awaits for an interesting experience the rest of the trip. The journey passed through Bosnian vilage before reaching Mostar 3 hours after. I was a bit haunted seeing bullet holes from gunshots at the apartment complex in that town. It was ha…

I've  had the incredible fortune to go visiting Bosnia and a small part of Serbia. I took part in a special proget in which i had to sleep in an elementary school and to use only old bikes (taken from Italy)  to move in the city (Sarajevo) and even out of it. we did lot of kilometres unde…

Arrived at Sarajevo Airport after 4 flights from the UK. Tierd.. Got a taxi and headed towards the holiday Inn. (see review). I just loved the place, the people, the culture. Met two of my friends from Sarajevo the first morning and we headed into town.  Alot of the damage during the war has b…

    The JAT Airways turboprop from Belgrade to Sarajevo took only forty minutes, even if it did sound like a Lancaster Bomber. “Why are you going to Bosnia?” someone had asked me back in the UK.  “And please don’t tell me you’re going there on holiday.” Well that was ex…

My bus pulled in to the station in Sarajevo, mid morning. It was snowing and I was still a bit sleepy from my early morning. I took the tram from near the station to the center of Old Town, an easy 10 minutes. I checked into my home away from home in Sarajevo, Hotel Safir. I had a different room t…

I usually go to Sarajevo to visit my family. The first few pictures are of my dad's aunt making pitas, which is a Bosnian pie. The woman is an expert and she makes 3 in like 20 mins. My favourite pita is a potato pita so she made me two potato pitas and one cheese pita. I documented the process bec…

Sexy Mama It’s approaching 22.00pm when I bundle off the beautifully scenic although chaotic train ride from Mostar to Sarajevo.  I beg a call on a mobile off a pretty lady and manage to make contact with Juan and Lisa the adorable couple I first met when we were mutual Couchsurfers with Ki…

I was absolutely struggling with the concept of leaving Dubrovnik.I needed to start heading North to get to Milan for my return flight.Getting reluctantly to the bus station on my last evening I'd missed all the buses heading North except for one going into Bosnia-Hercegovina to the small town of M…

We arrived at the memorial place around noon. Based in Sarajevo we had about a three hour drive to get to Srebrenica. Me and my journalist buddy, Morten, weren't sure if we were going to do a story on the events, but I had made up my mind that I wanted to visit Srebrenica when I was in Bosnia.…

We spent 2 days in Split Croatia, which is right on the coast and a big jumping off spot for people who plan to tour the islands of Croatia.  I have done island hopping before and it wasnt something I found super exciting, so we decided before the trip that we would head inland to Bosnia and H…

 Las únicas imágenes de Sarajevo que tenía en la cabeza eran aquellas relacionadas con la masacre vivida tanto en la ciudad como en el país bosnio. Durante algo más de tres años las televisiones nos informaron de una de las mayores barbaries bélicas que se recuerdan en Europa desde la I…
