Welcome Paul

Sounds like you have a lot to offer the board with your broad experience of the main resorts so don't be shy and share your knowledge with the rest of us!

Look forward to hearing from you again

But u have to remember that they have just come out of a bitter civil war. I remember years and years ago that Yugoslavia was quite a popular tourist destination... people will go back eventually.
