From Bosnia to Zimbabwe

The resilience and global-mindedness of a Bosnian woman navigating life in Zimbabwe

In this episode of the podcast I talk to Ramajana Mabita, originally from Bosnia and Herzegovina but presently living in Harare in Zimbabwe.

Together we explore different facets of her life, from her childhood experiences moving between Bosnia and Germany to her colourful journey of adapting to life in Zimbabwe amidst its unique challenges.

Along the way, she shares her views on local fashion, cuisine, culture, and music, as well as intriguing reflections on similarities and paradoxes between Zimbabwe and Bosnia.

Ramajana also highlights positive experiences such as meeting Zimbabwean celebrities and her growth in storytelling through her Instagram account. This episode is a glance into the resilience and global-mindedness of a Bosnian woman navigating life in Zimbabwe, promoting a fresh perspective on African life beyond media portrayals.
