I don't know if we quite knew what we were getting into heading into Bosnia & Herzegovina.  We had booked a day trip to Mostar from Dubrovnik through our Airbnb host, enchanted by the pictures we had seen of Mostar's famous bridge and teal river running underneath.  It looked like a fairytale, and as a photographer, I wanted to capture its beauty through my lens.  What I naively underestimated were the very real world scars etched into the landscape of this picturesque country, and what a profound impact the kindness and resilience of the people who lived through horrors would have on our time there.
