MB took a short trip to Sarajevo, capital city of Bosnia & Herzegovina (B&H) during the recent Eid break. The city has much past and recent history which attracts tourists from all over the globe and the city is known as the Jerusalem of Europe on account of it’s history of its religious diversity and tolerance.

MB also had a few beers in a great Irish pub in the old Ottoman district of the town, and a few more in a Glasgow Celtic/Scottish theme bar in the relatively newer Austro Hungarian side of town, but no need to get into all that! Better instead to recount a story or two from the trip and MB has chosen one from the past and one from more recent times.
