Road to South-East of Bosnia

I love to travel south-east direction from Sarajevo. Not crowded and not so bad road. Beautiful and interesting in any time and season. Well, maybe not so interesting in the winter time, if you are not prepared and if the road is closed.



































I prefer to use it in the summer and autumn. In the summer, in the mountains, air is refreshing and a gentle breeze makes you a good mood. In the fall season, colours are incredible and outstanding. You simple forget anything else and makes so many brakes and stops for shooting photos and sometimes this travel take twice needed time.

My favourite breaks are Tjentiste, national park with a great monument from the second world war, Cemerno, the mountain crossing and natural border between continental and Mediterranean climate with a fantastic view to the highest mountain peaks in Bosnia toward state border with Montenegro and Bileca, with an old medieval necropolis, some 30 kilometres before the final stop in Trebinje.
With all these stops and temporary short brakes, you need about 5 hours of very smooth and relaxing drive.

If you come here, take your time and pass this route. Breakfast in Tjentiste, coffee in Bileca and lunch in Trebinje. Don't hurry and take it easy...

Cows and Colors - Bjelasnica

I love October! There is a part of it called Michael's Summer and it lasts ten days of that beautiful month. You have to be prepared and ready for, 'cause it's easy to miss it. Sometimes you are to early and sometimes is late and Michael's Summer is already left.
But, if your timing is well, then the award is special and unrepeatable. Anyone who loves red, yellow blue and brown will enjoy these ten days, of course if hit right place and right part of the day.
We are again on Bjelasnica olympic mountain, some 30 km from Sarajevo. Weather is nice and warm, elevation about 1000 meters. Near small mountain village, two girls are posing just for me.
These girls knows what is healthy life on a clear air and good vegetarian food.
They have a friend who also decided to pose for me. He perfectly fits to the autumn atmosphere.
















Winter is close, so the clouds are in scouting mission, low and quiet, searching the best place for their rest and final mission. In just few weeks snow cover will reach about one meter deep. Nature and residents are ready for it.
