Who we are
I’m David, a retired media consultant, voice-over artist, and content creator living in a charming rural village in northern Bosnia and Herzegovina. For over 22 years, I’ve immersed myself in the rich culture, history, and daily life of the Balkans, sharing my experiences through my blog, Coffee and Rakija, and various creative projects.
Together with my wife Tamara, we as storytellers, craft engaging podcasts, videos, and articles that bring the essence of Bosnia to life.
Whether we’re uncovering hidden gems, exploring fascinating traditions, or offering tips for expats and travellers, our goal is to inspire curiosity and connection.
When we’re not creating, we enjoy life at a slower pace, embracing local customs, meeting interesting people, and appreciating the beauty of this remarkable region.
Let’s explore the Balkans together!

Hey there, fellow adventurers and storytellers!
Whether you’re tuning into my podcast, diving into my blog, or exploring Bosnia through my YouTube channel, every story, every snapshot, and every moment is crafted with passion and care.
But here’s the thing—bringing these tales to life isn’t without its costs. From keeping the mics rolling to maintaining the blog and creating those YouTube moments you enjoy, it all takes a little something extra.
This is where you come in! By buying me a coffee (or two!), you’re not just fuelling my caffeine cravings—you’re fuelling the creation of the content you love. Your support keeps the stories flowing, the videos uploading, and the podcasts streaming.
Buy Me a Coffee and be a part of the journey! Together, we can continue sharing the beauty, quirks, and untold tales of Bosnia and beyond.
Thank you for being amazing and for helping this over-70 explorer keep the adventure alive!
