EVP in Sarajevo Antonio Kordić, Universtiy of Zagreb, Croatia
Firstly I would like to thank the members of the European Visiting Programme for making it possible for us students to visit other dental faculties in foreign countries. In this brief paragraph I will describe what was my overall experience of the Faculty of Dentistry in Sarajevo and Sarajevo as a city. In the beginning of the second semester we four students, Adi Karamehmedović (5th year), Fuad Khaiat-Mardnli (5th year), Antonio Kordić (4th year) and Ruža Bjelovučić (3rd year) went on a well organized trip to Sarajevo. We arrived on Saturday morning just in time for the VII International Symposium in General Dentistry, which was being held at the Faculty of Dentistry. The symposium was very educational and highly beneficial for our further professional education. Our accommodation was being well taken care of by the local students of the Faculty of Dentistry in Sarajevo near the Faculty and the city center. During the day we were on the Faculty observing or assisting on clinics, or listening to seminars. I must express my high admiration for the educational atmosphere which I was witnessing during my short clinical exercises and their heartwarming hospitality. In our spare time we were being guided through Sarajevo on sightseeing of destinations Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque,Baščaršija, Sacred Heart Cathedral, The Yellow Fortress, Spring of Bosnia (Vrelo Bosne) and the degustation of their local food. In the evening we had organized gatherings and I must say that the city is alive even during the night.
