Hi!

Regard the hotels,I recommend Holiday inn,in the centar of the city.Its better to book before the trip.Mostar is far from sarajevo about 100km,and its easy to get to.The most important to see in sarajevo is old part of town-Bascarsija.

Dear Piviz,

I am an American Ex Patriot living in Sarajevo. The advice on the Holiday Inn is extranious at best. Why go to Bosnia and still in the most American place in the most Western City. If you are going to Mostar (to see the bridge I am guessing, if I am wrong then I commend you), you are in for some of the most beautiful and treacherous driving you have ever seen. But remember that the trip is half of the adventure. You will get to see Jablanica (Yaa-blan-eet-sa) and if you stop you may get what is supposed to be the best roasted lamb in the world. But make sure that when you get close to Mostar you stop and get some med domac, domestic honey.

Any other questions, I or my wife are always ready to help fellow Americans.

Cheers

Brian

Dear Pivitz,

Wouldn%26#39;t you know it, but the Americans are presumptuous again. Sorry for the inadvertant guess you were from the states, your English is just that good.

There are a lot of Finns in Bosnia, as I am sure you know, most are in the Tuzla region. The word for Moyaka, or soup is Corba (Chore - Bah), Fish is riba (reeh - bah), beer is pivo (pee - voh), and on and on and on.

You might be already in Sarajevo, but if you didn%26#39;t get there yet don%26#39;t miss %26quot;Vrelo Bosne%26quot;, which is the spring of the river Bosna, beautiful... Sarajevo film festival is a great choice if you catch any tickets, which will be in box offices on next Sunday. There is also rafting on the river Neretva (on the way to Mostar), that%26#39;s the river that passes through Mostar, as well as on the river Una (near Bihac) which might be even more adventurous, but only in case you are going to spend more than 3-4 days in Bosnia, because Bihac is far from Sarajevo. The best way to go around the country is by car, so if you%26#39;re comming by plane, you might consider renting a car.

Hope you have the best time in Bosnia!
