A Quick Question Before This Newsletter Gets Underway
The Best and Normal Moments
Not necessarily in chronological order.
Over the past few months I have been looking at how I tell my stories as an older person living here in South West Europe. It’s been both confusing and somewhat frustrating. However you circle it, I am no writer. My passion is with audio. Video is in a definite second pace for me, but I like to “dabble”
So. What to do?
Well. My decision is to keep this Substack primarily text only. There are now links in the main menu to where my original podcast is archived as well as a link to my YouTube channel, where there has also been a rebrand and refresh.
I honestly feel that Substack (whilst extremely good), is trying to be all things to all people, and somehow that doesn’t sit comfortably with me.
But. I did launch a second, audio only Substack, which I have titled “A Baby Boomer in Bosnia”.
Let’s Crack on
The Podcast
The Video
The Notes
I’m David, and Coffee and Rakija is a Digital Magazine about my life and experiences in a rural village in North-West Bosnia and Herzegovina. I’ll be giving you a unique look, through the eyes of an immigrant (me), of this much misunderstood country. My goal is to replace the many negative perceptions of both the country and its people, that you’ll be served by international media outlets. Thank you so much for dropping by.
And Finally
