Those prices are whatever I could get my hands on – either bar prices or in a local store!

This was in 2001, so I think things have settled down a bit there! At the time, I never felt threatened, even though some of the images may suggest otherwise!

Amazing fotos,

i live in Croatia which is pretty close to Kosovo, i still didnt manage to go and am not sure if really would like to take my kids to see something like that. Anyway the “danger mine” sign i also see here, especially in the estern part of the country, if you go on the small roads in that part of the country you can also find used to be villages.

Kosovo really doesn’t look like a happy place to be in. I really hope that the problems there slowly sort themselves out as it slowly looks like it’s picking up since your time there in 2001. It’s not a place you hear as much of these days either.

This part of Europe was once such a popular tourist destination so it’s such a shame to see how the brutal war affected it. It’s nice to know that travelers are taking the time to visit Kosovo again and this will no doubt help with the future of the country but as seen in the pictures there is a long way to go yet.

I like the part about the Rakija drink, it seems like every country I have visited have their own ”Hooch”; the Japanese have the wonderful Saki and I recently discovered a tasty brew in Thailand called Ya Dong.

I would also like to ask Anthony what the tourist figures are like nowadays and how many actual visitors/travelers he encountered during his trip.

My dad went to Bosnia on a tour of duty (with Canada) years and years ago and I've been obsessed with visiting ever since. The pictures he brought back looked nothing like a war zone (though the highway sign he brought back riddled with bullet holes did). I hear that it is a much safer place to be now, and still just as beautiful but ignored by tourists and travellers alike. Thanks for a great post! 1002things’s last blog post..Monday’s Picture of the Week
