Sarajevo, Bosnia Herzegovina

Sarajevo and all of Bosnia Herzegovina that I've seen so far look beautiful in autumn. I got myself an Airbnb for a few nights so I had some space to work on a presentation for a job interview in Germany at the end of the week.

I met Alex from China who spoke so many languages, including Slovenian and Italian. We went for a "Boiled Wine" (see photo) and then chatted until late.

Sadly half of the businesses on Google Maps didn't have accurate opening hours and weren't open when I showed up. Half the places that were open only took cash. It's strange as until this last year I hadn't used cash in nearly 20 years! I wasn't going to get out some Bolivian Marks for a couple of days so it even took longer to find a restaurant or cafe that would take Visa or MasterCard.

One afternoon I turned up to a walking tour and there was no one there. I used the time to go shopping for a warm jumper and a jacket to prepare me for heading into single digit temperatures in Munich and London at the end of the week. I can't believe I've been travelling with only a backpack with summer clothes and a rain jacket for 8 months now!Meer informatie
