In the summer of 2012, I'm back in Sarajevo working with people who are good journalists and after all this time also good friends. My language skills are no better, alas, but I hang out with natives and internationals in the know. So I'm planning in this space to tell Bosnian stories to American readers, with my Bosnian friends free to call me out on errors or wrong headed interpretations. This is a fascinating area of the world and these are interesting times.
Welcoming sign and good thought.

The monastery bore no resemblance to the elaborate and rich Buddhist shrines we toured in Thailand that pompted Cisco to remark at one point: Really, they are a big overdone.
