A Face in Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina June 2008
“In 1998 I read “Balkan Ghosts” by Robert Kaplan and it turned a switch on inside of me. It suddenly seemed as if I was always going to places everyone else had gone, so I chose a less traveled path. After reading that book, I went to Bulgaria for a month. I have not returned to Bulgaria since, but I hope to this spring. I have, however, been a frequent traveler to the Former Yugoslavia, i.e Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Macedonia, Slovenia, and Serbia. I have included Greece in my Balkan excursions. I see this area as the historical and emotional crossroads of the world, full of hope, promise, pain, and blood. I have fallen in love with the Balkans. There is no other place like it.”
