Easter, Walking Again and Learning to Slow Down

In this episode, I sit down in the studio for a more reflective, radio-style conversation about life here in northern Bosnia and Herzegovina.It’s Orthodox Easter weekend here, and as always, it brings with it food, family, tradition… and a reminder of how different life can be when you choose to live in a country far from where you were born.I talk about:* The difference between Easter in the UK and Bosnia* Village life and traditions (including roast pig and “death by food”)* The recent flooding here in northern Bosnia* Getting back into walking at 73, and feeling it!* A chance encounter with a badger on a quiet country road* Why I’ve removed browsers from my phone* Slowing down, meditation, and the pressure we put on ourselves in later life* Plans for hiking in Zenica next week* And why I’m beginning to think more seriously about legacy, storytelling, and building my own websiteThis is a slower, more personal episode, less about information, more about reflection.If you’ve ever thought about living abroad, slowing down, or simply making sense of life as you get older, you might find something here.
