Coffee and Rakija.
A Blog, Podcast and Vlog, by former soldier and retired media consultant, David Pejčinović-Bailey MBE.
What to Expect from Coffee and Rakija
I write about my life and experiences in a rural village in North-West Bosnia and Herzegovina, giving you a unique look, through the eyes of an immigrant (me), of this much misunderstood country.
I also have a Podcast where, I introduce you to some of the interesting people I have met, who help me to dispel the negative perceptions that many people have of this country.
As I travel around exploring the rich culture and history, I also discuss the challenges and joys of immigrating to a new country.
