Croatia

Well…I'm writing for a school newspaper and I have to write about how many people know and what they know about my city and my country…

so I was thinking: What do you/the foreigners think about Croatia? What did you hear about it? What is first thing on your mind when you hear the word Croatia…and so on…

please be honest and write few sentences…even if you don't know anything about it say it…

I have to write something!!! 

thank you :)

First thingI remember whan you say Croatia is that they beat england in footbal. Next year, it will be bad tournament without england, but, Croatians were better, so it is fair.  Another things?  You have clear sea and beautiful landscape – many tourists are interested in it! I have never been there, but  some of my friends have sad it was nice to be there.  Some places from your country i know from tv.

Hi, well, one of my friends goes to Croatia regularly, and he likes it a lot, he says you have really pretty girls. I`ve been passing through Croatia, but never stooped anywhere long enough to make up my mind about it, although I`d like to see Zagreb.

Hope you`ll write a nice report!

P.S. svidja mi se snupi :))

Croatia is a paradise for sailer's,clean water hundred of island,a lot of bays and creeks for save anchor.But Croatia is for me a old fishermen with one leg,he took care to my boat in the war times.once i ask him where he lost his leg…he lost his leg in the second world war,through German bombs…after a while silence i ask him and you don't hate the German you invite me for lunch on your boat,you know i am a German.He answered: don't be worry about this,you wasn't born at this time and when you go in the war, you must also accept the risk.The tragedies is going on: he lost his son in the time of the last war in Croatia ,he suffers a lot,but he loves the sea. "The old man and the sea" is not fiction from hemming way!the old man and the sea has been real, he lived with his wife till 2004 on his boat,island murter.
