If you didn't already know, I am David, a 71-year-old British expat living in Bosnia and Herzegovina and someone who has lived in Bosnia and Herzegovina for the past 22 years.
This podcast blends engaging conversations with locals and narrative-driven episodes that take you on immersive journeys through the region’s history, food, and everyday life.
In this video, I visit my neighbour to see the process of butchering, jointing, and preparing a large pig for various uses like salting, drying, smoking, and making sausages.
I'll show you around my neighbour's smallholding, explain the cultural significance, and share some insights into the local way of life.
This is a candid look at rural living, as well as some tips for experiencing Bosnia off the beaten path.
