National Museum
First of all, thank you for being patient! I started classes at Georgetown on Wednesday and arrived back in the US on Tuesday night, so it’s been a very quick adjustment with only a little time to edit photos and write these posts (I LOVE my classes, though!)
Today, I’m going to take you on a walk through two national museums. The first is Sarajevo itself, which is a preserved testament to its…

Jajce Fort and History
Jajce Fort and History
Hello! Welcome back! Now that we’ve gotten thoroughly soaked in the waterfalls together, please follow me! We’re going into a fort from the 1300s, perfect to play Dragons and Castles and Princesses with!
After I finished my hot chocolate, had a long conversation with Hemingway profusely apologizing for my negligence in his care, and wrung myself dry (no last name puns, please), I headed to the…

Jajce Waterfalls
Hi all!
The day after my exam here (one of the primary reasons I had to purchase a laptop) I took a bus to Jajce, one of the oldest Bosnian towns. Bosnia is smaller than most people think and it’s easy to get places by bus if you buy the tickets in time (we’re an eight-hour drive from Croatia and it has taken every bit of my willpower not to hop over there). I had a 7:30 am bus out of Sarajevo…

Lukomir Pt. 2
So I left you on a hilltop pretending to fly over a ravine that is allegedly home to a dragon. The only thing I was lacking was the LOTR soundtrack, but if you know me you know that’s really not an issue, since I can hum the whole thing to myself as I please. Which I definitely did.
We traipsed down the hill, through the little stone houses, and began to walk down that path you saw earlier, the…

Lukomir Pt. 1
Hi all! I’m going to break this excursion into two, mostly because I have so many photos that I want to share, and I don’t want it to be overwhelming in one go.
Last Thursday I took a bus ride to Lukomir, an “ethno-village” in the mountains about two hours from Sarajevo. I met the tour bus (about nine people, including the guide and driver) at 9am by Vijecnica, where we drove through the…

A Day in Sarajevo
A Day in Sarajevo
Some days on any trip, especially research-oriented trips, mean no excursions, no crazy adventures, and a day in a cafe or meetings that you can’t necessarily share all the details of. This is fine – indeed, to spend a day as a local is to learn in some small measure what it is to be a local. So perhaps I will describe to you what it is to have a day.
I wake up in an apartment that is almost all…

Graveyards
Hello, friends!
After a flight situation that had me missing my connection in Vienna to Sarajevo, I had to stay the night in Vienna before arriving to Sarajevo a day late. Everything was fine- Austrian Air put us in a great hotel, paid for our dinner and breakfast, and gave us an overnight bag that included pajamas – but it meant I arrived in Sarajevo about 5:00 pm on the 13th, a day later than I…

Paris Pt. 2: Musee d'Orsay and Tour Eiffel
Paris Pt. 2: Musee d’Orsay and Tour Eiffel
After the Eiffel Tower, I went to one of the only places I’d actually “scheduled” time to go to in Paris: The Shakespeare Book Company. Located directly across the Seine from the Notre Dame, The Shakespeare Book Company is a bookstore originally opened by American Sylvia Beach in 1919. During the 1920s, it was a literary salon, a gathering place of minds like Ezra Pound, James Joyce, and Ernest…

Paris Pt. One
Hello all, and sorry for the delay! In case you hadn’t heard, I had a slight laptop snafu and had to purchase a new one here. I arrived in Sarajevo a little over a day ago, but I’m going to start at the beginning.
It turns out that to fly to Paris and then to Sarajevo is cheaper than flying direct to Sarajevo – by like, a thousand dollars. So I took advantage of the moment and spent about 36…

The Road Goes Ever On and On
The Road Goes Ever On and On
“It’s a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don’t keep your feet, there’s no knowing where you might be swept off to.”
Guess who’s traveling again? *looks around* *raises hand* Me, me! I am! And I’m bringing back the blog so you all can travel with me, because I a) love sharing it with you and b) think that everyone should have an honest chance to…

You Are The Day
You Are The Day
I need to write. I neglect it, an honest process I need to have with myself every day that I always manage to forget or push aside as something just as easily done tomorrow as well is would have been done today. But then I miss details, details of my self, and of the world around me, of my thoughts and dreams, of all, certainly, that matters so much more than the vacuous details of these things…

A Moment With Lincoln - And Without Instagram.
A Moment With Lincoln – And Without Instagram.
Recently I resolved to spend less time on Instagram. I knew I loved it because I was able to interact visually with my world, but I began to spend my down time when I wanted to think just scrolling through the app. This time, I realized, was handicapping my thoughts as much as it was using my time (and my parent’s data). Instead, I resolved to write down an experience every time I felt I wanted…

White Alliance.
On Friday afternoon I got off the bus at the crossing of Mount Pleasant and Irving Streets in NW DC. I had every intention of walking into the local market to get tomato sauce for dinner, but immediately after I stepped off the bus, I heard a large commotion and saw a handful of police cars. Directly across from me was a group of about 20 teenagers, from my judgement ranging from fourteen to…

Srebrenica.
Today, July 11th, 2018, marks the 23rd anniversary of the genocide at Srebrenica, where 8,373 boys and men were killed intentionally by Bosnian Serb forces in one of six UN-protected “safe zones”. I always commemorate this day, a mental reminder of why I do what I do, study what I study. This anniversary, however, finds me with the need to share the story and its implications. I think history’s…

Libricide and the Destruction of Cultural Heritage
Libricide and the Destruction of Cultural Heritage
“The fire lasted into the next day, the sun was obscured by the smoke of books, and all over the city sheets of burned paper, fragile pages of grey ash, floated down like a dirty black snow. Catching a page you could feel its heat, and for a moment read a fragment of text in a strange kind of black and grey negative, until, as the heat dissipated, the page melted to dust in your hand.” –Kemal…

In Defense of Empathy
In Defense of Empathy
Monday was MLK Jr. Day and we inaugurate Donald Trump as President on Friday. The squirrels in Fourth Ward Park, where I sit writing this, are scampering around, oblivious to the tragedy our world is witnessing. The past two years I’ve hoped that he would fail, and it always seemed inevitable that at some point, he would. But he won, and I have only begun to fathom the pain that his tenure will…

"No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite."
