Oh! It’s not F. Murray Abraham! Thank God! I dont like that guy’s voice! And I wanna hear a new narrator! Looks like it’s gonna be an interesting episode! Can’t wait!
My family comes from near this area. I visited the former Yugoslavia only once in my life when I was 12. I lived there a full year with my grandfather, learning about how life moves with the rythym of the seasons. I will never forget him nor the pristine nature I experienced there. Much of the Balkan peninsula is strewn with such beautiful and pristine landscape. My hope is that one day soon the newer generations will truly put aside their differences and preserve this land as it is and claim it as their heritage. I am eager to view this episode.
Now we see why the Croatian National Anthem is titled “Lijepa naša” domovino, Our Beautiful Homeland.
