Amila Bosnae http://amilabosnae.com - Political blog with a twist of Bosnia-Herzegovina Tue, 16 Jun 2009 15:53:21 +0000 en hourly 1 AmilaBosnaehttp://feedburner.google.com Moving.. http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/AmilaBosnae/~3/62FEbuVmq04/ http://amilabosnae.com/2009/06/16/moving/#comments Tue, 16 Jun 2009 15:27:02 +0000 Amila Jašarević http://amilabosnae.com/?p=1783 I’ve had some hosting and other issues on this blog and have decided to move it back to http://amilabosnae.wordpress.com, which is where I used to blog before getting my own domain.

All posts and comments have been copied onto http://amilabosnae.wordpress.com, but I’m still working on things there. The blog probably won’t be so active though, as I simply lack the time to keep both an English and a Danish blog - and the Danish one is easier as I constantly feel like commenting on current events from Denmark. So the new/old blog is most likely just going to serve as an archive - but we’ll see. This blog is going to stay online for a while as well, but I don’t plan to write new posts on it.

You can get in touch with me at amilabosnae(at)gmail.com :)

The website tells you how you can join as a blogger, user of social networks like Facebook and Twitter or just plain in your e-mails.

In the videos in the campaign several refugees speak out. Among them Aldijana Bećirević from Bosnia-Herzegovina who had to flee her country in 1995. Today she is a solicitor specialised in immigration law. Her video is very moving, as you can see below. Make sure to see the others’ testimonies as well and find out how you can support the campaign at lookbeyondthelabel.org
