Welcome to A Baby Boomer in Bosnia, where I explore the fascinating culture, history, and everyday life in Bosnia and Herzegovina, this heart-shaped, but much misunderstood country.

I’m David, your host, sharing stories, insights, and conversations from my life here in the north west of the country.

Whether you’re tuning in for the first time, I’m so glad you’re here.

From the golden Slavski Kolać bread to the array of delicious dishes like sarma and spit-roasted pork, the feast is as much a sensory delight as it is a cultural immersion.

I explore the historical roots of Slava, tracing it back to the 13th century and its evolution through time, emphasising its role in preserving Serbian identity during periods of occupation.

Throughout the event, I feel a profound sense of belonging and gratitude, making this more than just a celebration of food, but a testament to enduring traditions and community bonds.

Thank you for tuning in to A Baby Boomer in Bosnia. I hope you enjoyed today’s episode and that it gave you a little more insight into life and culture here in this fascinating part of the world.
