Franje Milicevica 39 Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina, 387-61-382-940
It took me 5 hours to get to this city from Sarajevo, my bus went thru winding (but good) roads that follow river valleys amount the mountains, but it was worth it. Mostar is beautiful, a city of long history with a very famous, very elegant one-arch bridge built in the Ottoman era ("most" in Slav means bridge, "mostar" means the bridge keeper), but was known by the world mostly because of what happen here in 1993, during the civil war. At that time, the city and the area around it were popul...
Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina chan_hc We love it when the bus driver cares so much about his passengers that at stops he counts them to make sure everyone gets back on. 500m down the road we pulled over to wait for the two people he left behind to run and catch up.
For the first time Shona got to see what it was like before the EU merged all the boarders together. During the 3 hour ride we got stopped 4 times to check our passports, and not one bloody stamp, *******s. The bus route took us in and out of Croatia and Bosnia sev...
Originally, Mostar was going to be a quick couple stopover on our way to Sarajevo. Instead Brandon and I ended up spending two days there and it proved to be probably the most culturally enriching experience of my life and somewhere I will never forget.
Upon arriving at the bus station us and two guys from Australia were picked up by this man named Bata who ran the hostel we were staying at along with his sister Majadas. This guy had one of the coolest accents of all time and is one of...
Wow what I tiring day I have had. I am staying at Majadas hostel which is recommended by everyone as the place to stay in Mostar and to do the tour is also highly recommended as well. The tour I was going on was run by the backpackers and cost 20 Euros and left at 10 so I got up early to have an explore of Mostar. Mostar is a really cute little town in the south of Bosnia surronded by hills and is famous for a bridge that locals jump off and is between 18 to 25 meter high from the water depen...
Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina richardcowleyKako si? I just woke up. I arrived in Mostar yesterday 26th of April at 8pm. Like Sarajevo i was confronted again with some taxi drivers upon arrival. But! What a difference. They politely asked me if i needed some help or a room. I said yes, i am staying at the 'Majdas Rooms'. "Ahh Majda! Let me call them for you so they can pick you up." Now that is the way to do it! While waiting i got into a talk with a Bosnian Serb. He told me he wants to leave Bosnia for good soon and is just waiting fo...

... up the stairs to the first floor. I was going all in. I walk up to the first floor to literally have my heart sink and skip a beat. I was in the corporate operations floor of a bank. Files, folders, papers, briefcases covered the entire floor. Bank records of people all over from back in the day, half obliterated cubicles and corner offices, umbrellas, shattered glass from the windows that formed the outside facade of the building was all over the floor. I was in my ...

Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina michlac... the warm sun- so good. We then went down to the river to wet our feet, the water was so cold! From here we took our last photos of Mostar. Then went for our last wander through the old town. AJ, Rebekah, Shona and I arranged to meet Clare and Celeste at the train station later on. We went back to hostel for a bit of a relax, while eating fresh figs from the tree shading us. The owners were so ...
Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina jcastellan... aa ha lest litt Lonely Planet igjen, har jeg laert at gamle broen, Stari Most, ble bygget av en tyrkisk arkitekt paa oppdrag fra Suleyman den store i 1557. Broen ble jo bombet i stykker under krigen paa 90-tallet. Den er naa bygget opp igjen, hvilket tok 10 aar aa fullfore. Det ble nemlig bestemt at broen skulle bygges opp igjen paa samme maate som opprinnelig bygget. Samme type stein, samme type redskap etc. Broen er i dag et symbol paa samhold. Broen er ogsaa beromt for mennene som ...
