I was born in Sarajevo. I speak Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian and English, but with a strong Bosnian accent. My mother was born in Croatia. My father was born in Turkey. My late brother was a follower of Indian philosophy and understanding of life. My grandfather was Hungarian. My husband is Scotish. I have Bosnian and Irish passports.

In this story the only unusual fact is that it is my reality and not fiction. But in Sarajevo such a biography is not unusual, and maybe that?s one of the reasons I live here.
