Welcome to An Englishman in the Balkans, the podcast 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 a longtime listener or tuning in for the first time, I’m so glad you’re here.
In this podcast, I share another glimpse of my life, this time during the first real snowfall of the winter.
I’ll be talking about:
Environmental challenges, including heavy snow, strong winds, and torrential rain, and their impacts on us such as power outages.
A bit about our rural lifestyle, especially what its like living with a wood-heated home.
Local food traditions, like pig slaughtering for winter food.
The benefits and challenges of living in Bosnia, such as the lower cost of living, friendly locals, and the significance of learning at least some of the local language.
I have decided to produce more “walk-and-talk”, storytelling podcasts, providing a personal account of my experiences, that I hope you will find interesting and engaging.
