Bosnia

burden of history

The Meeting

For a foreigner, Bosnia seemed like a very peaceful, calm country, where people could think that no one was bothering anyone because they lived with their own past. It was as if life here was constantly lived in the past, and for a stranger, that is, a traveler building his future, it seemed possible to disappear here and open his mind to the sky without anyone's harassment.

In this country, where young and old populations predominate and it is difficult to see children, it was understood that transferring the burden of all this history to the next generation was a difficult decision for everyone.

Cold Love

If we do not forget that everyone's cold faces, which seem strong enough to manipulate the climate, are due to this burden, we can see that love, still as a rare value, continues its story in these lands.
