This bakery is a city gem and makes an amazing pizza with Suho Meso and Kajmak that is an absolute must-try. The pizza is massive and lines always long but well worth the wait.

Hi there! I'm a passionate explorer, originally from Sarajevo, currently calling Florida my home, all thanks to my remote job. This digital nomad life grants me the freedom to work while exploring new horizons.
I've wandered through the charming streets of Portugal, soaked in the lively culture of Spain, reveled in the lush landscapes of Ireland and Scotland, explored the artistic treasures of France, indulged in Italy's culinary wonders, and ventured through the diverse landscapes of Germany, Turkey, and the Czech Republic. However, my heart truly belongs to the Balkans because the region's rich tapestry of history, stunning landscapes, and warm, welcoming people have a magnetic pull on my wanderlust. From the picturesque coastlines of Croatia to the rugged mountain terrains of Bosnia, every corner offers a unique adventure waiting to be discovered.
With a wealth of travel knowledge at my disposal, I'm here to design your dream journey. Let's unearth those hidden gems together and turn your travel dreams into captivating experiences! 🌍✈️
