EEET2013 – Day 17 – Mostar (Bosnia & Herzegovina)

After experiencing the advanced and quick driving skills of Balkan bus drivers (irony), we decided to make a short stop during our last road trip between Sarajevo and Dubrovnik (Croatia).  Some research about the city and its history lead us to Mostar, a small picturesque city in the deep south of Bosnia and Herzegovina. You can reach the city either by train or bus. Both are quite cheap and more or less take the same time to get there, but the train just leaves very early in the morning or late in the afternoon, making it impossible to a) rest well or b) stay over for only a couple of hours. That is why we decided to take the bus.

EEET2013 – Day 14-16 – Sarajevo (Bosnia & Herzegovina)

An eight hour bus ride brought us to Sarajevo, only 250kms. away from Belgrade. A taxi brought us to Villa Hipodromo. A extremely hospitable gentlemen from Bosnia received us generously and we kindly joined them near the beautiful swimming pool. They seemed to like us very much as they invited us over for a family barbecue they would be having that Sunday evening. His best friend was present too and together they tried to explain us, in perfect English or German, the life they livid during the Yugoslavian war of the nineties. Sarajevo, as capital of Bosnia & Herzegovina, was an isolated city and at that moment we didn’t realize just how bad the war had been for Sarajevians.
