A nostalgic dive into the history, culture, and experiences of an Englishman living in the Balkans during Yugoslavia's era.
Martin Gannon shares his journey from England to Yugoslavia in the 20th century, his experiences of working in the tourism sector, including establishing a pilgrimage route to Međugorje, and his life in Yugoslav Airlines.
He also discusses how the country has changed after the breakup of Yugoslavia and the future of tourism in both Bosnia Herzegovina and Croatia.
Despite the significant changes and challenges, Martin maintains that the Balkans remains a place close to his heart, with its rich history, stunning landscapes, and most importantly, its welcoming people.
The piece of music in this podcast is: “Moja Je Pjesma Lagana” by Parni Valjak.
