  • Join me for a walk through beautiful Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina, aka the Jerusalem of Europe. Here's the catch: I arrived in the city at 5:30am and got to explore it before the city had woken up, so I got the city all for myself.

    So, come along as I show off some of the beautiful things that Sarajevo's old town (Baščaršija) has to offer. It's a city that has lived through many empires and experienced a siege during the Bosnian War just 30 years ago. This makes Sarajevo akin to an outdoor museum, and it's surely a place worth exploring. Come along!

    Ja sam iz Brčkog, nemam nikakve veze sa Sarajevom, niti sam odrastao tamo, niti imam familije tu, ali kad god dođem osjećam se ko kod kuće, nevjerojatan grad, zrači nekom posebnom energijom, žao mi je što sam studirao u Tuzli, a ne u Sarajevu...

    Have you ever listened to the song by “Kemal Monteno - Sarajevo Ljubavi Moja” translated Sarajevo my love, Kemal monteno is the son of a Italian soldier that fought in WW2 and who fell in love with Sarajevo and a Bosniak women there so he decided to stay in the city and marry her Kemal who was raised in the city made a tribute song to where he was raised and it’s one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard Tito used to have him sing it for him as well in person. And during Kemal Montenos funeral a colony of people sang the song together as they carried his body to be buried at the Sarajevo cemetery. Plz listen to it when you get a chance I think you would really like it

      No one forced them out, they choose to leave because they don't like the Muslim heritage. Look up Momcilo Krajisnik's speech at the end of the war. The peace agreement was signed in December 1995 and right after that he made a nationalist speech to Serbs in Sarajevo saying that they should move out because now "Muslims will rule the city"... No one else ever told them to leave. As a matter of fact, many Serbs are now working in Sarajevo and take a daily commute from East Sarajevo where they decided to make ethnically cleansed Serb town on the border of Sarajevo city and they still come over and earn their paycheck in Sarajevo. No one is stopping them from actually living in the city but they choose not to because they're bigots like yourself.
