How is the situation in #Bosnia-#Herzegovina 30 years on from the war? This is the question at the heart of my new book, 'The Bosnian Straitjacket.' Many thanks to all those who contributed reflections. Pick up a copy today through the following link! amazon.co.uk/Bosnian-Strait…

For a small country, it is beyond ludicrous to teach children of the same land as though they belong to irreconcilable worlds. Ethnic and religious division in education does not strengthen society, it corrodes social cohesion and leads to no benefit whatsoever. We are not inventing the wheel. Children should be taught together. There is no two-tier maths, physics, chemistry, languages, music, sports, technology... Give the kids and their parents the option of an English-language curriculum alongside their mother tongues and watch their minds broaden instead of being barricaded.

What is a unique Italian dialect doing in northern Bosnia? In the village of Štivor, (older) inhabitants still speak a dialect of Italian, celebrate traditional saint's days, and create food that is a cultural fusion.

Just stumbled into a bus from Tuzla, Bosnia, full of Japanese tourists. In the middle of Kazanlak, central Bulgaria. (No, not April 1 joke).
