  1. The bonds between Sarajevans are stronger than family, in some cases. You trust them with your life, your soul. Another thing that is strange about Sarajevo is that life was reduced to single moments with great clarity. Sharing a cup of tea, a beer or a scrap of food dressed up to look delicious, was monumental.

  2. There's nothing prettier than my arrival in Sarajevo, with the welcoming smiles of dear people.

Nowhere in the world have I seen more jovial people.
