Best for: Cheap, hilly Sarajevo base for nomads who want story-rich cities.
Bosnia is on the cheap-Balkan playbook — 90-day visa-free, residency for longer, costs that look like Albania's. Sarajevo is unique in feeling — the coffee culture is genuinely better than most nomad-famous capitals, and the price-to-quality ratio for old-town café-work is hard to beat. Internet has improved a lot since 2022 but still patchy in some neighborhoods; verify before signing a longer lease.
