My Two Worlds: The UK and Bosnia and Herzegovina

Published on: 22nd October, 2023

Hello, this episode is a bit different from normal, because I’m replaying a podcast episode thats not mine.

Let me explain.

Back in may I was a guest on a fantastic podcast hosted by Slavenka Vuković- Bryan called Two Worlds, One Me.

I think the podcast title is pretty explanatory, but basically my two world have been and are, the UK and my now adopted home of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Now, many of you have asked time and time again for me to talk about how I arrived here in Bosnia.

It’s a long story actually but on Slavenkas podcast I opened up for the first time.

So here’s my story.

I really really do recommend subscribing to Slavenkas amazingly interesting podcast.
