Don’t Miss is a platform dedicated to discovering Herzegovina as it truly is—through its people, wine, food, landscapes, and a rhythm of everyday life that cannot be rushed.

We are not about “top 10” lists or quick recommendations. What interests us is context. The story behind a glass of wine, the quiet of a courtyard, an unplanned conversation, a journey measured not in kilometers but in experience.

We don’t see Herzegovina as a destination, but as a place of encounter—of culture, nature, and character. Everything we share grows out of real experience: visits, conversations, tastings, walking, and listening.

Don’t Miss exists for those who travel more slowly, more curiously, and with intention. For those who want more than just to see—they want to understand.

Tim Clancy is an American writer and travel author with a long-standing focus on the Balkans, particularly Bosnia and Herzegovina and the region of Herzegovina. For decades, he has written about the area not as a passing visitor, but as someone who has lived it - walking its landscapes, listening to its people, and engaging deeply with its history.

His work avoids postcard imagery and simplified narratives. Instead, Clancy approaches places through their human stories, cultural layers, and historical complexity, combining curiosity, respect, and precise language. He is especially known for making complex social and historical contexts accessible to international audiences without reducing their depth.

Through numerous essays, articles, and guide contributions, Tim Clancy has played a significant role in shaping a more nuanced international understanding of Bosnia and Herzegovina - one rooted in context, contradiction, and lived reality rather than stereotypes that guided him in creating the Don’t Miss platform.

She is not interested in surface-level interpretations or destination narratives without depth. Mirna creates and curates content that invites slower reading and closer observation, emphasizing authenticity, a strong sense of place, and the voices of those who live there.

As the the content creator and editor at Don’t Miss platform, Mirna Jelčić creates a space and provides experiences where Herzegovina is not a product, but an encounter - and an invitation to travel with time, intention, and understanding.
