It's like, is it Bosnia, or is it its own thing? No entiendo....
The BiH elections took place the day after I arrived in the country. Political billboards are everywhere.
For explicit evidence of the interweaving of Orthodoxy and Serbian nationalism, look no further than the door of this "Orthodox kiosk," as I refer to it. Not quite a church; much smaller than that. Part of me expected to find a soft-serve ice cream stand around the bend from the front door, part of which has some saint engraved onto it, and the other part having the Serbian double-headed eagle.
Trebinje tagging: The Serbian double-headed eagle, the name of the town, and some sort of early 20th century British schoolboy "Where's Waldo?" character.
