I got a bit interested in learning more about Bosnian culture and currently looking for the answers to some questions. Does anybody know any facts on how Bosnians (plus Croatians and Serbs) treat Russians? Do they have an eye on Russians like, say, older generations of Polish people do? Or are they generally friendly?
The Serbs traditionally adore the Russians. The Kroats and the Bosniacs (Muslim Bosnians) wouldn't be too keen on the Russians I suppose, because of the historical link with the Serbs.

Sometime I visit Serbians sites and I can understand from 10% up to 70-80% of serbian language it depends on style and subject. :)

I don't know about Bosnians, I've never talked to Bosnians, but Serbs are always friendly and they are good guys.
BTW, I got a friend in my town, he is my real friend, it looks like his forefathers from there, his last name is Serbin. :)

For all people from all nations: you have good guys and not so good guys everywhere, nationality has little to do with morality...
