After many years of wanting to visit Medjugorje, my prayers have been answered and I have finally persuaded my husband to come with me. He is a sceptic who shies away from organised religion, but in recent years has attended the occasional mass service with me (he's very much taking baby steps, but stepping in the right direction nevertheless). I doubt that he could undertake a full blown pilgrimage, but given that he's a real history buff, thought we might be able to combine Medjugorje with visits to other places of historical interest in Bosnia Herzegovina/Croatia.
Given that neither of us speaks the local language, we fear we would struggle getting about if we were to make our own travel arrangements and wonder if it would be terribly frowned upon to "piggy back" on a pilgrimage from the UK. Alternatively, maybe there are some organised tours of the region whereby we could branch off for a couple of days to visit Medjugorje.
Please, please, can any of you lovely people help me out with some suggestions or advice that might help us?
Many thanks in anticipation and may God bless you x
