Sassy Sheep Farmers in Bosnia
3 November 2008
I made a video to capture a borrower visit in Bosnia. Learn about sheep reproduction AND witness an attempted dog attack!

Nice work Milena. Great video to reveal the life of a Kiva borrower. Plus, I’m really glad that the dog didn’t attack.

A tip of the cap to you, Milena. That was incredible. I think you found your life’s work.
I am going to promote you on facebook as the exemplar of polish american interviewing of bosnian women!

Nicely done – both the video and the work with Kiva. Can’t wait for the next video update…

Great vid Milena…they’ve accused me of being a bandwidth hog here at the office for my repeated plays of it!

You make me want to be there with you–amazing video and that woman is so funny. Ten sheep. Ten. Thanks for putting a smile on my face! Hope you are having an amazing time.

I am very proud of you. As much proud I am, as a mother might be. I always knew that you are a treasure to keep. But you are free, not for keeping, and you are flying high. Good job, Milena. Produce more videos since they “produce” many good tears.

Hey Milena,
So, this video got sent to me by a friend from law school that I worked with in Sarajevo in 2006. He sent it to me because I taught English in Gracanica in 2003. Then, when I clicked on the video, I saw that it was YOU–didn’t we go to high school together?!! Anyway, Gracanica is one of my favorite places on earth. Right now I’m in The Hague continuing to help prosecute war criminals (as I was in Sarajevo)…keep me updated on your work! Where are you now? I’d love to hear more about what you’re up to. All the best, Natalie

Milena, looks like a lot of fun.

Milena,
I was horribly slow but finally had a chance to sit down and take a look– amazing! It was definitely very strange to see you in a video over the Internet, but I am so proud of you. It has finally sunk in what you are doing, and I’m so happy to see that you are having a great time pursuing something that you love. Miss you lots. Take care.

Hey Milena, finally found an internet connection good enough to watch the whole video, absolutely love it. The editing is slick and the content hilarious, hopefully you can make more, you have talent!

Hey Milena,
Thanks for putting up this video. It was really cool to see what you are doing over there. I felt like I was right there with you for a minute. The video was quite entertaining as well.(Good music taste) On top of that, I feel well informed about sheep reproduction now (: I look forward to more in the future. Keep doing what you’re doing over there!
