Forbidden love between Muslim and Serb: Mustafa and Sofija have been married for 60 years and they defy the hatred on Balkans (VIDEO)
There are no rules in life, nor special tactics for 60 years of life together. At the end, it all comes down to love
Sofija came to Tuzla first time when she was a girl in 1953 from Vojvodina to visit her friends. That was her first independent travel, without her family. With the stroke of luck, she remained in this city and got a job, and she met her future husband there, who came from Bijeljina to Tuzla for work.
