In this episode, Tamara and I explore an array of fascinating Bosnian superstitions and traditions.

We discuss the myth of 'promaja,' the belief in the harmful effects of drafts, along with rituals like throwing water behind travellers for luck and the significance of breaking mirrors.

We delve into Christmas customs such as baking Česnica bread and practices like carrying a Qur'an or using charms to ward off the evil eye.

We share insights on how these superstitions intertwine with social etiquette and daily life, reflecting Bosnia's rich cultural mosaic.

Our discussion spans from financial omens with itchy palms to the broader, harmonious connection these beliefs have with the land and heritage.
