크로아티아 스플리트에서 보스니아헤르체고비나 모스카르로 버스를 타고 넘어왔다. 저녁 10시쯤 도착한 나는 맥도날드에서 호스텔 예약을 위해 잠시 시간을 보내고, 노숙할 곳을 찾아나섰다.

I took a bus from Split, Croatia to Bosnia and Herzegovina, Mostar. Arriving at around 10 p.m., I spent a moment at McDonald's to make a reservation hostel for tomorrow, and went out looking for a place to sleep. Homelessness in the city is as important as sneaking around.

경기장 근처 풀 숲에서 하루 노숙 후, 예약한 골든브릿지 호스텔에 갔다. 호스텔 예약 사이트에서 보니 평점이 무료 100명 이상 모두가 5/5로 만점이어서 무슨 이유인지 너무 궁금했다.

After a night of homelessness in the grass near the stadium, I went to the Golden Bridge hostel I booked. When I saw the hostel reservation site, I was so curious about the reason, as all of the more than 100 people gave the perfect score of 5/5 for hostel.

아침 일찍 8시에 갔는데도 매니저 스테판이 눈을 비비며 반갑게 맞아주었다. 그는 내게 "커피 마실래?" 물어보길래, "좋지" 라고 대답했더니, 직접 끓이는게 아니라 밖에 있는 커피집에서 카푸치노 한 잔을 사들고 왔다.

그리고는 내게 한 가지 부탁을 했는데, 침대에 임시로 붙일 이름표를 만들어달라는 것이었다. 나는 특별하게 만들고 싶어서 3시간을 그려 만들었는데, 그동안 테이블 위에는 스테판이 무료로 주는 커피, 음료수, 과일, 케이크가 쌓여있었다. 왜 평점이 만점인지 알 것 같았다.

Even though I went early at 8 a.m., manager Stefan rubbed his eyes and welcomed me. He asked me, "Do you want some coffee?" and I said, "Okay." I thought he will boil it himself, but he went out and brought a cup of cappuccino from the coffee shop outside.

Then he asked me a favor, asking me to make a name tag for the bed temporarily. I wanted to make it special, so I drew it for 3 hours, and there was a pile of coffee, drinks, fruits and cakes that Stefan gave me for free. I could see why the rating was perfect.

Stefan의 mostar에 대한 설명을 듣고, 환전을 하기 위해 밖으로 나왔다. 여권이 필요하고, 1.96KM이 1유로였다.

After listening Stefan's explanation of the Mostar, and then I came out to exchange money. Passport required, 1.96KM was 1 euro.

스테판이 추천한 현지 음식점에 갔다. 요거트갈릭고기뷔렉을 먹었는데, 뷔렉은 발칸 반도에서 먹는 부드러운 패스츄리가 겹쳐진 빵이다. 그 안에 고기가 들어있었고, 위에는 요거트 갈릭 소스를 뿌려줬는데, 정말 맛있었다. 가격은 4.5KM으로 2KM이 1유로쯤이었다.

I went to a local restaurant recommended by Stefan. I had yogurt galric meat burek, which is the bread, soft pastries inside eaten in the Balkans. There was meat in it, and I sprinkled yogurt garlic sauce on the top, and it was really delicious. The price was 4.5KM, and 2KM was about 1 euro.

그 이후에는 크로아티아계 대형마트인 Konzum에 갔는데, 정말 저렴한 수박을 보게 되었다. 1kg에 0.25KM이었다. 그러니까 8kg에 1유로라는 것이다. 유럽에서는 보통 1kg에 1~2유로 정도 하니까 굉장히 저렴한 것 같다.

After that, I went to Konzum, a large mart from Croatia, and I saw a really cheap watermelon. It was 0.25 KM per kilogram. Therefore it's 1 euro for 8kg. In Europe, it usually costs 1-2 euros per kilogram, so it seems very cheap.

모스타르의 오래 된 다리 주변을 걸어보기로 했다. 시장은 흡사 터키인들의 골목을 생각 나게도 했지만 터키와는 달랐다.

I decided to walk around the old bridge in Mostar. The market reminded me of a Turkish alley, but it was different from Turkey.

거리를 걷다보면 왼쪽 편에 DON'T FORGET 이라고 쓰인 비석을 볼 수 있다. 유고슬라비아 내전을 아픔을 잊지 말자는 뜻이라고 한다. 조금 더 멀리에 있는 오래된 다리도 보였다.

As you walk along the street, you can see a monument on the left that says DON'T FORGET. It means not to forget the pain of the Yugoslav civil war. I could see the old bridge a little further away.

오래 된 다리는 참 멋있었다. 매년 레드불에서 주최하는 다이빙대회가 여기에서도 열린다. 다이버들은 관광객들의 돈을 받고 다이빙을 뛰기도 하는데, 위에서 아래로 떨어지는 것을 보니 아찔했다.

The old bridge was very nice. A diving competition hosted by Red Bull is also held here. Divers sometimes dive for tourists' money, and it was dizzying to see them fall from top to bottom.

길거리에 있던 공예품 가게에서 나무로 표현된 '오래 된 다리' 작품을 봤다. 다리는 'golden bridge'라고도 불리는데,

I saw an artwork of "Old Bridge" expressed in wood at a craft shop on the street. The bridge is also called the Golden Bridge,

밤이 어두워지면 노란 조명이 켜지는데, 그 불빛에 의해 금빛 다리가 되기 때문이다. 저녁에 보는 것이 확실히 더 분위기가 좋다.

When the night gets dark, the yellow lights turn on, for the light makes the golden bridge. It's certainly a better atmosphere to see in the evening.
