Reflections from a Wet December Garden in Bosnia
Welcome to An Englishman in the Balkans, the podcast where I explore the fascinating culture, history, and everyday life in Bosnia and Herzegovina, this heart-shaped, but much misunderstood country.
I’m David, your host, sharing stories, insights, and conversations from my life here in the north west of the country.
Whether you’re a longtime listener or tuning in for the first time, I’m so glad you’re here.
In today’s episode, I’m coming to you from my misty, waterlogged garden in northwest Bosnia. Donning my trusty bobble hat, I reflect on life here in the Western Balkans as winter takes hold.
In this chat, I share updates about my content journey, including experimenting with a new microphone setup, meet the Zoom H3, complete with a fluffy “dead cat” windshield! I’ll also touch on the magic of audio storytelling, the beauty of birdsong (yes, woodpeckers made a guest appearance), and the joys of living simply in this serene corner of the world.
💬 What to Expect in This Episode:
• The charm of a rainy Balkan winter day 🌧️
• Exciting audio gear upgrades and future plans for content
• Reflections on building community and the art of storytelling
• Sneak peeks into upcoming podcasts and celebrations of two Christmases!
Whether you’re a regular listener or discovering the podcast for the first time, this episode is all about connection, creativity, and embracing the little things that make life in the Balkans so unique.
