Fantastic nature and scenery, cheap, great food, and not spoiled by travel industry or big businesses.
It’s pretty wild and not as developed as any of the neighbors, but very genuine and I’m into that kind of stuff.
Downsides: very few people talk English.

Here is another comment from a Redditor who saw the country:
We swam in natural pools with waterfalls, ate delicious food, took a million pictures of Mostar during golden hour, and met some cool Bosnian people who took us out to some nightclubs. I loved it! There were days when we felt like the only tourists. The natural landscapes were stunning as well.
