So you're about to head to Bosnia and Herzegovina for a few days of meetings. But you realize: you have no idea what Bosnia and Herzegovina is like.[Sale: 50% off until Saturday, October 2nd! If you're on the fence, do pick it up sooner rather than later--or drop us a note, we're happy to answer questions.]Sure, you know where you're staying. Maybe you've got a guidebook that describes places to visit if you manage to scrape together a few hours of sightseeing. But what's Bosnia and Herzegovina really like for doing business?More practically:
- How should you greet your business partners?- If you're invited to someone's house, what sort of gift should you bring?
- If given a gift, should you open it right away?- Are there any special considerations for female travelers?- Perhaps most importantly: if you order the burek with some hurmasice, what on Earth is that going to look like? (hint: the hurmasice is a dessert!)
Bosnia and Herzegovina: Business Traveler's Passport is designed specifically for businesspeople. It contains around 150 pages of information on Bosnia and Herzegovina, focusing on areas of particular concern to the business traveler. While it does contain a small amount of information on hotels and sightseeing opportunities, these sections are intentionally light--this is not a travel guide!

* Country Facts: Demographics and other statistical data, with an offline map of the country.
* Doing Business: Greetings & courtesies, meeting protocol, business attire, business entertaining, etc.
* Women: As travelers, are there any special considerations in Bosnia and Herzegovina? As a businesswoman, are any extra measures needed? How are bosnian women treated in their own country?
* Money: What does the money look like? How much should different service people be tipped...if at all?
* Travel: Visa info, departure formalities, electrical system, etc.
* Safety: Emergency numbers, notes on street crime, hospital locations, health & medical care.
* Points of Interest: A few interesting museums and cultural sites, in case there's time after the meetings.
* City View: Background on Sarajevo, with a handful of hotel descriptions.
* Telephone System: The subtleties of dialing to & from Bosnia and Herzegovina. There's even a section on how to use pay phones in Bosnia and Herzegovina (without needing to read Bosnian).
* Life Cycle: From birth to marriage to old age, what's life like?
* Gift Giving: The subtleties of giving personal or business gifts.
* Holidays and Festivals: Solid background on the popular holidays and festivals.

* Terms Dictionary: Over 100 words & phrases translated into Bosnian.
* Embassies: Embassy locations and contact info for a few dozen countries.All content is 100% available offline without a network connection. However, street addresses are linked to the Maps app, URLs open up in Safari, and phone numbers & email addresses bring up the appropriate helper apps. Note, however, that the Maps app on the iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch currently doesn't have any street data in Bosnia and Herzegovina. So those address-to-map links won't be useful until that situation changes.For more screenshots & info, or to drop us a comment or question (shockingly, we enjoy hearing from customers!) visit us at www.ridic.com.Sure, you know where you're staying.
