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 episode, I share my personal journey of living in Bosnia and Herzegovina for over 22 years.

I talk about my fascination with experiencing new cultures and how it contrasts with the experiences of other expats from the UK and the US.

Despite being deeply rooted in my British heritage, I have embraced local customs without trying to impose my own culture.

I also discuss my unique 'in-betweener' status and reflect on the cultural identity challenges that come with long-term relocation.

Join me as I explore the joys and struggles of adapting to a new way of life while still holding on to my British roots.
