Where have I been for the past two months of not posting a podcast episode?

In this episode I bring you up to date an recent events and what you can expect going forward.

As an English language podcaster in Bosnia and Herzegovina, I sometimes feel like an outsider, but it also gives me a unique perspective to share with my audience. Living in a small village like Čardačani allows me to experience the local culture, traditions, and challenges firsthand.

Through our podcast, we aim to bridge the gap between different cultures and shed light on the beauty and complexities of life in the Balkans. We want to challenge stereotypes and showcase the resilience, creativity, and warmth of the people we encounter.

One of the aspects we are particularly passionate about is highlighting the untold stories of individuals who have overcome adversity or made a significant impact in their communities. By sharing these inspiring narratives, we hope to inspire our listeners and create a sense of connection and understanding.

Our focus moving forward is on quality over quantity. We want to ensure that each piece of content we create is meaningful, informative, and engaging. This approach allows us to maintain our enthusiasm and provide our audience with valuable experiences and insights.

We are also exploring collaborations with other content creators and experts in various fields. By joining forces, we can pool our knowledge and resources to create even more impactful and diverse content. We believe that collaboration is key to fostering a sense of unity and expanding our reach.

In the coming months, we have planned interviews with local artists, entrepreneurs, and community leaders. We want to showcase the vibrant cultural scene in the region and highlight the initiatives that are driving positive change.

Additionally, we will continue to document our own experiences, whether it's exploring new hiking trails, attending cultural events, or participating in community activities. By sharing these personal anecdotes, we hope to provide a glimpse into the daily life and adventures of an Englishman in the Balkans.

We are grateful for the support and feedback we have received from our listeners thus far. It motivates us to keep pushing forward and improving our content. We encourage everyone to stay tuned and be part of our journey as we navigate the ever-changing podcasting landscape and continue to share stories from this fascinating corner of the world.

Thank you for being a part of our podcasting community, and we look forward to bringing you more exciting content in the future.

Previous Episode

In this episode I’m sat in the reception area of the Marriott hotel in downtown Banja Luka. Why? Because at the moment the first ATP 250 Tennis Tournament is under way in Banja Luka.

This tournament is also called the Srpska Open, as Banja Luka is in the entity of Republika Srpska.

I have managed to get to talk to David Sammel the coach of British player Liam Broady.

I find out about tournament life, how a coach motivates and supports his player, the importance of mind-set and much more.

Next Episode

Welcome to another episode of "An Englishman in the Balkans Podcast," where we traverse the rich cultural landscape of the Western Balkans.

In this edition, recorded outside in our garden here in the village of Čardačani, I sit down with the incredibly talented Jelisaveta Gluvić-Wragg, a classically trained violinist, who has embarked on a remarkable musical odyssey that took her abroad and brought her back home.

In this intimate conversation, Jelisaveta shares the transformative experience of studying abroad and how immersing herself in diverse cultural settings shaped her musical sensibilities.

Deciding to return to her homeland, Jelisaveta opens up about the pull of her roots and the sense of responsibility she feels toward her community. She shares her vision of contributing to the flourishing music scene in Bosnia and Herzegovina, fostering artistic growth, and inspiring the next generation of musicians.

You'll also here "village sounds" during the podcast, I hope that makes you smile?
