So you're about to head to Kosovo for a few days of meetings. But you realize: you have no idea what Kosovo is like.
Sure, you know where you're staying. But what's Kosovo 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?
- Are there any special considerations for female travelers?
- Perhaps most importantly: if you order the tulumba, what on Earth is that going to look like? (hint: it's a dessert!)
Kosovo: Business Traveler's Passport is designed specifically for businesspeople. It contains over a hundred pages of information on Kosovo, 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! Seriously!
Instead, it has entire sections of information on:
* Kosovo Basics: A brief history of Kosovo, with some background and historical highlights.
* 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 Kosovo? As a businesswoman, are any extra measures needed? How are kosovan 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 and 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 Pristina, with a handful of hotel descriptions.
* Telephone System: The subtleties of dialing to & from Kosovo. There's even a section on how to use pay phones in Kosovo (without needing to read Albanian or Serbian).
* 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: Background on the popular holidays and festivals.
* Religion: Info on Kosovo's religious climate.
* Superstitions and Folklore: Common superstitions, along with kosovan stereotypes.
* Food and Recipes: Descriptions of common kosovan foods, along with recipes for a few appetizers, main dishes, and desserts, including burek, mushroom soup, kebabs, lamb with rice, and tulumba.
* Terms Dictionary: Over 100 words & phrases translated into Albanian and Serbian.
* Embassies: Embassy locations and contact info for a handful of 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.
