Backpacking through Bosnia

An interesting article about Backpacking through Bosnia is recently written by Scott in his Travel Blog.

Scott visited Sarajevo and Bosnia and has some useful tips to say  - Here is an excerpt from the article:

So what is the first thing you think about when you hear of Bosnia? When I told my friends that I was planning a trip to Bosnia, they thought I was crazy. Unfortunately, when people think of Bosnia they still think of horrible images that they may of seen from the war that happened years ago. The truth is far from this stereotypical image that many people seem to have. I am convinced that Bosnia is one of the most beautiful places in Europe. It is also much safer than many people tend to think. Unlike many other parts of western Europe that people generally don’t associate with crime (like Paris), I never felt unsafe when I was there (for more information about crimes in Europe you can read my article about personal safety in Europe or my article about common scams). If I would have listened to my friends, I would have probably missed what turned out to be one of my favorite places in Europe to travel…

Thanks Scott for nice introduction to Bosnia and Sarajevo!
