Dušan, welcome to Croatia. I hope that you will have a nice and succesful life here. Don't bother with people (probably mostly older) who will be rude with you because of your Serbian origin. The younger generation that is staying in Croatia is mostly over the all war drama.
Hvala Ante, Ziveli!
Not all elderly people think the same.
Nikola Tesla was a Serb from Croatia. He is my idol. Btw, i am Croat, even if i don't care, the only thing i realise by people is-asshole or not. Nationality, fuck that.
As long as he's not chetnik mentality ,he'll be fine😊.And for your stupid comment of "rude old people" ...they had many reasons to be rude for "certain"serbs, so respect that.Ne budi dupelizac na štetu svog naroda.
To što vi mladi nemate loših iskustava i sjećanja iz rata ne daje vam za pravo da "sraćkate" po onima koji su ih imali i imaju ih dan danas🤔.Preko tisuću obitelji još uvijek dan danas traže svoje nestale mrtve.Poštuj tuđu žrtvu.🤨
I za tvoju informaciju preko 10,000 srba se borilo na našoj strani i nije bilo postrojbe da ih nije bilo u njoj.Ubuduće se suzdrži takvih debilnih komentara😐.Neka dečko sam ocijeni kakvi su Hrvati...ne treba mu sigurno "odvjetnik" kao ti.🤨
@@elizabethwilk9615 Of course not🤔.That's just disrespectful comment from this antevunic, dude🙄.
Thanks for the video;) My grandparents were Croatian so I am busy applying for citizenship-I live in South Africa so cannot wait to move! Keep the videos coming;)
best of luck!!
So did you move or are you still there?South Africa is turning to shit quickly
I am still here:) South Africa is beautiful and does have a lot going for it, but it's not where I want to be;)@@mariocroatia9321
Tanja is probably still in SA@@mariocroatia9321
I am Croat, nice video,welcome and enjoy your living in Croatia,your home also
Each time my friends ask me about my move to Croatia, I tell them the peace of mind and freedom I am feeling.
This is priceless.
Excellent episode, thank you for sharing with us.
Glad you enjoyed!
Dušane brate, dobro nam doša. I grew up in Split during the War and my best friend was Serbian. It taught me since very young age not to judge people by their ethnicity but by what kind of a person they are. Croatia as a country is a homeland to Croats and Serbs alike and we should all move forward and try to understand each other better.
Welcome home Dušane ! Your way of thinking, your maturity and spirituality are stunning. Everything you've said in the video is sooo true, and you analised it with surgical precision and accuracy ! You are on the right place, on blessed soil. Stay still ! Just to tell you, you are not alone in your views! There are many of us (we too!) returned home from overseas, anticipating big storms and positive turning point in Croatia, just like you ! This holy soil of your ancestors is blessed by God. Entire future is controlled by Him and belongs to him. And as you know, everyting in our life has a particular reason. Rejoice and enjoy your Croatia, great move you've made !
Wow thank you Sonja for the amazing comment. it truly is blessed and wish you all the look with returning home!
In 2020 I got an " intuitive knowing" or a feeling (hard to explain) that children of croatian immigrants would start coming back to their homeland and it makes me happy to see more and more people coming back. Welcome😊 it just gives me positive vibes
I have seen lots returning, seems to be for similar reasons
Just like you I grew up in the States and would return to Dalmatia with family in the summers. The people, the food, the way of life with family and traditions touch my heart. As a woman safety and the fact I could walk the streets at night with my sister and not worry was a huge plus. Now that I have kids I bring them back and am thinking of retiring there. The West has lost itself; ridden in crime and fast food leading to high obesity rates etc. is not that there isn’t good food it’s that people work so much that they no longer even cook at home. It’s a vicious cycle. Good luck to you and don’t worry about your ethnicity although I consider you brave - the Serb Croatian issue I know can be tough but honestly I don’t hear too many people bring it up anymore. You’ll always find people who are negative anywhere. Many blessings.
You seem like a really genuine guy and all your reasons for leaving are valid i wish you all the best :)
Thank you!
Totally agree. Not triggered or scared off. Went back to the UK. Last October. Was there for three months. No. It's done. Flew back to Croatia last Thursday! Feel totally at home here. Just a completely different vibe. Guess I needed to leave to realise for certain that there was nothing for me in England anymore. My heart is here in Croatia. No intention of going back to the UK unless it's to visit!
Hopefully will get a chance to meet you at some point at an expat meetup in Zadar one day!
I felt the same, I thought I wonder if I go back will I miss it? Then I went back and realised it was definitely done for. It’s a broken country.
Feel free to add me on Facebook and we can meet up for a beer or coffee sometime. :)
Hi any thoughts on getting a job over in Croatia getting a one way flight from dublin next week
As someone who is a indigenous Brit, you are 100% absolutely bang on about how bad this country is getting!! Going to the dogs. Good for you getting away.
There are a lot of Britts moving to Croatia for exactly the same reasons, I have a few friends that are English, they are on you tube also ua-cam.com/video/TJdEEdvdgqk/v-deo.html
I left Croatia as a college student and after 20 years of living in USA, even though it is Florida, it never feels like home. Every time I land in Croatia, the frequency and vibration is different. You can connect with the person behind their eyes. Here in USA I feel like living among robots. No soul.
I left Croatia as a college student also. I lived in New Jersey for 20 years and I'm going back. People are cold and fake. Will do anything for money.

will you come back though?
Thank you for this video where you honestly opened your soul and said things for which many wouldn t have courage to say.
Considering uncomfortable subject of Homeland War in Croatia...there is nothing that you,who didn t participate in it,could change.
Yes,Croatia and Croats suffered terible destruction and casultyes because Serbs agression,from inside and form Serbia and Bosnia.
Croatia barely survived,and yes,many wounds are still very much hurtfull.
But you need to know ....Croats are not monsters.
We do know that not all Serbs where suporting agression,and even had around 8.000-10.000 fighting in Croatian Armed Forces.
Those people we Croats consider our brothers,our groundstone for the future,because their hart whose in the right place and we will never forget it.
I have an honour and priviledge to have some of them as my dearest friends.
Those few courageous sould have my deepest respect,and God help those who even watch them wrongfully. They are my heroes.
Don t fell uncomfortable here,no normal man will ever have any negative thoughts about you because youare a Serb.
Just be normal man,live normal life,respect Country and people around you the sam way you respect your self,and you will enjoy here.
And now ...a big THANK YOU for explaining to people here how realy World outside Croatia looks like.
Real World,not the one we see thru mainstream media,which lie us every day.
Your truth will help Croats to apretiate freedom and safety which is normal in Croatia and maybe love our Country more then they do now.
Wish you long and beautifull life in the most beautifull Country in the World.
Thank you so much for this comment, it means alot to me!
Hi. Good video.
I'm also interested in moving to Croatia. Im currently residing in the Netherlands and the things you did mention about the UK also applies more or less to my country as well.
I am currently doing some work for a couple from Netherlands, they are happy here in Croatia!
Just found your channel and I have to say, WELL DONE!! This is the second video I've watched of yours and your honesty and pursuit of freedom of life is inspiring. Subscribed and following.
Fantastic, glad you're enjoying Matthew, thanks for the sub!
I’m not from Croatia but after being there last summer, it captured my heart. There’s something special about it. If money was not an issue, I’d be there in a heartbeat ❤️
Try and make it happen! you can live a good life here and buy a house for alot cheaper than the west
I agree with u 100% I'm in Canada and also looking to move to Croatia.
So many Canadians here its crazy! get here soon!
@@Dusan.GrujicHow do those Canadians make a living in Croatia? Are they independently wealthy or have passive income? Thanks in advance
They usually have their own businesses or have been clever with investing.@@ViajesYrecuerdos-lv8uc
Totally on the same page as you. Good luck finding your safe place in Croatia!
Greetings brother! My grandpa used to live in Split, Croatia when he was young. Once i visited that city and I`m completely in love with it!
Nice man!
Dear Dusan thanks for this mazing video.Your Video is nothing but truth about GB or even complete EU. People are blind in GB and EU and there dont see the truth what there government has done to them.I live in Germany and i see exactly what is our government doing to us.Crazy this is not freedom. I am moving back to Croatia this Summer and i do say Ciao Germany after 40 years..Croatia is not heaven on earth and in Croatia are problems as well but in Croatia you are free and you can live in peace..Please dont worry about your Serbian family name we are same people Croats and Serbs lets move on like brothers and live a good life. I agree with you and your points in your video 100% .You made are right choice..Stay strong and Welcome to Croatia ....
Fantastic, I am happy you are moving back! This needs to happen on a greater scale and i think it will when people start waking up and seeing reality for what it is.
Good luck moving back
I am from Poland and I have been going to Croatia since 2000, I fell in love with this country and the Croatian people, Drinking coffee and looking at the sea is something wonderful, if God willing, maybe I will be able to buy some piece of land and build a house,I am glad that you escaped from England .We are Slavs
Good luck i hope you can make your dreams come true!
Dušan, you're very welcome to Croatia as your ancestors homeland! Don't be affraid of your heritage and name since all normal people regardless of their ethnic background are accepted if they're normal, decent and kind people! Yes, very dark things have happened between our two peoples: Croats and Serbs, but that doesn't mean people have to hate eachother even today instead of working on common and much, much better future in friendship and relaxed and close relations! Hatred is huge waste of time likewise leaning on prejudice, holding grudges against others because of something bad someone else done in past and so on...
Wish you all the best man!
Thank you for your warm welcome and your kind words.
I agree that holding onto hatred and prejudices from the past is not productive, and it's important to focus on building positive relationships with people of all backgrounds. I look forward to exploring all that Croatia has to offer and meeting new people along the way.
Thank you again for your welcoming message, and I wish you all the best as well.
Great video. Your perspective on how things are is amazing
Glad you think so! I appriciate that
My family is Croatia as well but immigrated to the US. I have dreamed of moving to Croatia.
Why not give it a try!?
It all resonates. Im starting the journey “home”. Even though i was raised overseas. Thanks for the relatable points Dušan, ive enjoyed and look forward to more content.
You got this! More content up soon!
Our youth is going out of Croatia, i have two nephews, one is living in Netherlands (before he was in Birmingham-never again, he said) the other is wandering through Scandinavia, he likes the cold. I welcome everyone coming to Croatia. Stay and multiply
Everyone should travel, but they should eventually return back to the motherland :)
@@Dusan.Grujic yeah, i agree with you, i am kinda gypsy too, Volim da mi je dupe na putu. Živ mi bio bratko, pozdrav iz Istre
You are a Croatian Serb and Croatia is also your homeland so welcome back. Path to future is to break the cycle of hate. For more than thousand years Croats and Serbs lived together and have never fought a war until 20th century. Its time for us to go back to that.
I wish everyone thought the same way as you :)
Welcome back don't look at the negative and you will be right at home
Thanks!
Spot on ! My story is similar but my dad moved to Australia . It’s changed so much over the years that it also feels like a prison . Would love to be able to live in Croatia !
never say never!
I'm a Croat, was born in Serbia, lived there bit less then half my life, then moved to Croatia. Some of the best people I met were Serbs
Great to hear :)
Ive felt like this for a few years now. Uk is so far away from its old values. I can rember when i was a child 30 years ago and my neighbours would just walk into our house uninvited just for a chat over tea and biscuits. Everyone is out for themselves now and most communication is over social media. Me and my wife drive from Lincolnshire in uk to croatia every September. We have 2 nights in Switzerland and itally on the way there and one night in austria and germany on the way back. We would love to live there but tied to uk because of the health care here.
Dobro nam došao😀😀😀
Hvala vam 😁
Brother, I feel the same way about Germany. Yes it might be more economically stable compared to the UK, but the people here are the issue. I was born here, grew up here, but half of my family is Serbian and I saw that culture "on the other side" when I went there every year. Germans are cold, reserved, it's hard to make friends and keep friends (even as a German!). Then there's immigrants and tax money getting thrown out and corrupt politicians. Maybe Croatia isn't better, but they have sun, they have the sea, they have friendly people. All the things I'm craving. I've been thinking about moving since Covid started. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thank you for sharing my friend! all the best if you make the decision.
I’ve been searching for info on my father’s biological parents for many years and recently found out his father was Croatian. Now I’m researching Croatia as a place to live even though I’ve never been out of the untied states.
That's incredible! Discovering your father's Croatian heritage and considering Croatia as a place to live is a remarkable journey. It's never too late to explore new horizons and embrace your roots. Wishing you the best as you delve into researching Croatia and contemplating this exciting new chapter in your life. May it bring you fulfillment, connection, and a sense of belonging. Cheers to your future adventures! 🌍🏡✨
"people who've lived in the north all of their lives won't understand".
I can tell you, I am from the north. Netherlands, that is and I very much feel what you're talking about.
I have friends here who moved from netherlands, looks like the country has been destroyed :(
I think you're spot on about the evolution of the western world. Could you make a small chat about why you chose Croatia and not Serbia in this perspective?
Good question, ill make a video in the near future
Cannot agree more with you Dušan. Especially regarding the cough cough narrative.
Thank you!
Great video, very informative family history. Just so you know, it's only a conspiracy theory until it's no longer a theory. Looking forward to the next video.
I always say its always a conspiracy if it isnt the mainstream narative. But they try and remove the other side of the arguement completely
Dušan,
Love hearing this view how you think about your freedom and the people in Davos. I think the same way and was seeing trough the bullshit straight away. I have never been to Croatia but I have this sensation from childhood that I would end up there. I would always picture myself with the croatian colors when their country played. Haha little bit weird but the truth.
Thanks for being you brother. God bless you in the name Of Christ Jesus.
Come down and experience it for yourself!
Thanks very much for the comment!
Dusane, I hear you 100%!!!
Just like you, I won't go into the politics of the place, but will just let you know that I am of Croatian background.
I went to school there 'til grade 7, then came to Canada with Mom; Dad came here three months earlier to check the place out.
Yesterday was 53 years since I came to Canada; was January 15, 1970; was a market day (which are held weekly over in Croatia in smaller towns), and I'll never forget how cold it was here.
Of course, lost all my friend there, didn't speak any English, and had to establish new friend here.
Fortunately, the kids in my class here adapted me quickly, and taught me about kid life here.
That said, even after 53 years, I still don't know where truly I belong. Sometimes I think I'm a Canadian (as my Canadian wife insists that I am), sometimes I think I'm Croatian.
Sometimes, I love both places, sometimes I hate both. Sometimes I think Canada is my home, sometimes I think Croatia is.
Mixed up thanks to two cultures, and backgrounds, that's for sure.
Life in Canada in many ways is very similar to life in UK, which is no surprise since Canada was a British colony for a long time, and even today many things here are done the British way, except for Quebec, but that's whole 'nother story.
People there take much more care of each other than here. There, grandchildren often times look after their parents, and grandparents.
Not here. That's why we have many more nursing homes here, than in Croatia.
Traffic in UK?
HA!
I worked about 50 kms away from home, but many times it would take me 2 hours to get to work, and two hours to get back home.
Traffic was horrendous, and it's getting worse, Yes, we have commuter trains, but during the Winter months the track signals would freeze or the train cars' doors would freeze, and wouldn't open or close. The funny thing is that the train cars were made in Thunder Bay, way, way up north on the Polar bear migration route, so you would think they would know a thing or two about cold weather.
had the cars been made in Brazil or Australia, well OK then it would be part of the game.
After a while, I realised life here was getting worse, and wasn't worth living here.
Introduced Croatia to my Canadian wife once on a vacation, and she convinced me to move there. She loved it.
Long story short, we came back to Canada due to her family's situation.
Oh well...
"England isn't what it used to be", you say. "it's going to the dogs", HA!
I can say the same for Canada; it's already gone to the dogs long time ago.
Too many people, too much traffic, impossible to get decent health care, cost of living is ridiculous, politics is polarised. Quebec is a different place than Canada.
Rest of Canada doesn't know what it wants to be, one part is pulling this way, one part is pulling that way.
Frankly, it's a country that never should have been created the way it has. Instead of one country, it needs to be 10 or 11 different countries. I used to tell my friends that Newfoundland should separate from Canada, and join the EU. They would be much better off.
All this being said, and as I told you before, never count England out of your life. It's still your "home", but in a different capacity.
One day, you will want to go back, maybe just to see the old place you used to go to.
It's in our genes to do that.
Dusane, don't get involved in climate change issues and other things. You're a young man, have a young family to look after, and now live in a nice place. Don't worry about that shit, there are others who can worry about it.
Buy a piece of land there or rent it or lease it, and plant a large orchard.
Plant some fruit trees; apples, pears...they don't require much labour, and will give you lot of fruit to eat and sell, and make you happy.
It will give you a sense of accomplishment in addition to seeing yourself and your family mature.
That's much more satisfying than worrying if the World's average temperatures rises or falls by 1.5C!
"No more flights", so what? You will have your family, and an orchard you can go to and pick some apples.
Life is good!
Last time I was there, some guy in town wanted to introduce me to some government Minister.
Phuc that! I just wanted to go there, build a house, and live there with my wife happily ever after.
I wasn't, and still am not interested in changing the way our Planet Earth rotates. Let it do it's thing, and I will do mine.
Jeez, this is such a long comment, I should have done a UA-cam video.
Cheers Dusane!
Hey man! Thank you as always for your comments, I always enjoy reading them and listening about your life and stories about here and Canada.
Its true, maybe you should pick up a camera and give it a try! or maybe one day i can get a bit of a interview style podcast going 😂
I have an expat friend who moved here not so long ago, he's got a similar mindset to me. but he hates where Canada has gone recently and what was once home for him is something he cant stand anymore.
Cant belive you were commuting for 4 hours a day that is NUTS!
And the fruit thing is something I toy with in my mind as it would be nice, who knows maybe one day when i get some money together!
Thanks for the support!
I wish you a good life there! Like from Palma de Mallorca!
You're very welcome to call this whole region Your home. You have a very healthy mindset, and I already see You won't have any issues in any of former Yugo countries. It is VERY insightful and useful what You said is happening in the UK, and that You don't want to see it here. We all stick together (when we're done swearing), and we won't let our loved ones loose their freedom. Even tho it seems as it's going that way, don't loose hope. We're a stubborn bunch here, we like to wait till the last moment, and then we stand up from our chairs (and have fun, otherwise it's not a challenge).
Welcome home, relax
Zivili!
Generally I don't comment on videos but you had me at "felt like a prison" and that hit like a ton of bricks. For those who never lived in a western country may not understand how brutal and depressing it can be. I share and agree with many of your concerns, might add as well I still have some freedoms on the other side of the pond. In case of uncertainty, I can take my rifle and hunt for food, collect rain et cetera...but that is the worst case scenario. So what do you do for income? Work remotely with UK salary? How easy was to find lodging? Are rents fair or perhaps staying with family? Are you seen as an outsider (like a tourist who understands the language)? How fast did you acclimate? Sorry for all the questions but I'm curious as moving there is on my mind daily.
I completely understand your perspective, and it's important to acknowledge the different experiences and challenges people face when living in different countries. The feeling of being restricted or confined can indeed be overwhelming, especially if one is accustomed to different freedoms.
As for income, it varies from person to person. Some individuals work remotely with salaries from their home country, while others may seek employment locally in Croatia. Finding lodging can also differ depending on the location and individual circumstances. Rent prices can vary, but generally, they are considered fair compared to other European countries.
Being seen as an outsider or a tourist who understands the language can depend on various factors, including your interactions with the local community and how well you integrate into the culture. Acclimating to a new country takes time and varies for each person. It involves adjusting to new norms, building connections, and familiarizing oneself with the local customs and way of life.
It's understandable that you have many questions as you consider moving to Croatia. Exploring these aspects and gathering information is essential for making informed decisions. Take the time to research, connect with people who have made a similar move.
Ultimately, your decision to move should align with your personal goals, aspirations, and what you value most in life. Best of luck as you continue contemplating your options, and may your daily thoughts about moving to Croatia lead you to the right path for your future.
Thanks for posting Dusan. Your comments at 14:44 are spot on! Most English-speaking western nations are sold out to the agenda of control. Much success in your new life in Croatia.
Thank you!
Well Said. I am 22 and thinking to move to some place in eastern Europe and looks good Croatia what is TAX in Croatia like?
Its not very tax friendly in all fairness. but atleast you know taxes are going towards improving the country so im happy
I like to watch PJ Watson and still I didn't understand it was so serious 🤦🏼♀️.
Welcome home! It's never easy on any part of the world... but here is better for raising a family! God bless you and your beautiful family!
Youre 100% correct on that one! bless you too!
we should have a beer next time Im back in Polaca, my story is akin to your dads but from the other side of the fence, Serbs Croats same people same culture divided by external political interests. See the Uk in exactly the same way as yourself and will soon be back home for good I hope. I think we'd get on. Take care and God bless.
Would be awesome to hear your story! Please contact me when you’re down and I’ll meet you. Cafe bar Boris in Polaca has some great cappuccino too!
Its not culture its just a system. Brttish used to be that way 100 years ago but modern anglo/american culture destoreyed family and old european values.
agree
Dušan i totally share your feelings about England and about Croatia.
I wish we could talk more in person..
Best wishes for you and your beautiful family
Hey Božana! Well if youre ever around Cro you can let me knoW
Sure Dušane ...let's have a coffee in Zadar next summer ☀️
I didnt hear a signle conspiracy, its all real. Also, Croatia provides one very important benefit, the sea. if you own a boat, you can leave and spend time at sea while shit is happneing on land.
yep true :) although i heard it was hard for people to dock anywhere when it was all happening so they were stuck at sea
@@Dusan.Grujic I will take stuck at sea over stuck in the UK anyday of the week. im from Amsterdam, things are a bit better here but im choosing to jump ship and go to Croatia.
Bosnia is even better.. rural mountains
We have been on holidays 6 times in Croatia, we love it but get real even in a few years it’s become all about money same as every other ‘developed’ country. We still love it.
Maybe it will, But for now Im enjoying it to its fullest
Agree with you 100%
I’m very interesting in your videos, because I looking for moving to Croacia 🇭🇷 buy is more easy to see your video with spanish subtitles 😊
Best of luck!
Welcome to Croatia. Serbs where allways best imigranats for Croatia. Gave us great people. Decpite few bad years in history i allways say the prophecy.. we have big luck that we speak same language.. and that will be soon clear to everyone why.. That is from Croatian patriot. Beautiful family. Wish all the best.
Hey there,
First off, thanks for the warm welcome! It's great to hear your perspective and the positivity you're sharing. The idea that shared language can lead to deeper understanding and unity is something to truly appreciate.
And you're absolutely right - history may have had its ups and downs, but what matters now is the shared bonds and the potential for a brighter future. Your patriotic spirit shines through, and I'm grateful for your well wishes. Wishing you and your beautiful family all the best too.
Let's keep looking ahead and building bridges.
Cheers!
We always welcome normal, logical & freedom loving people here in Croatia.
Just don't force any kind of stupid foreign stuff on the locals and enjoy one of the greatest lifestyles in the world!
your spot on with your video uk is a mess it really is question is how does one emmigrate to croatia from uk as were not in eu know could you give me any advice were currently selling our home in birmingham your help would be appreciated thank you
hey man, fortunetely for me i had a croatian passport aslong with English so i have freedom in the EU.
check out www.expatincroatia.com/ it may have some information for you
28:50 Yeah, the Croatian bureaucracy has almost become world-renowned. You're far from the first person to complain about it.
Welcome (back) to Croatia, hope you find a good life here and hope that your (inevitable) encounters with those who just can't get past the war years are few and far between.
You can be from Mars, for my concern. Nice person is always welcome, who ever and from wherever. So, welcome! 👍
I agree with you, but aren't you worried about increasing control everywhere within the EU? Is there a way of contacting you outside of this channel? Maybe telegram or signal?
you can email me on grujicc.dusan@gmail.com
Welcome..home..Dušan....
Hvala!
U are a good lad Dušan.
Welcome to the Balkans😅.
Great video and thank you for the insight that I can definitely relate to. 🎉
Thank you 🙌
Great video, from an Englishman
cheers Ryan
If you love people in Croatia and understand the mentality of croats
You should not have problem to accept reality what happend on the 90's .....terrible war.
One day I was helping my friend to renovate the house and I found some book. ..(.swedish language )
I read and found
It said that words /croats = radical=
It means when necessary,you have to act
Good luck to you...Sretno ti bilo
I accept what happened, There was atrocity created in both sides. I think with the youth of today something like what happened in the 90s would not have happened today.
Welcome to Promina.
Thanks Sime!
Just found your channel. Totally on the same page as you. Things in the US are just like in England and i am looking for someplace that is actually free, not fake-free. Croatia is now on my list of potential relocations. During the cough cough did they lock every one down like in England and the US, and force people to get V's? Were masks forced? Are people there still wearing masks? Are people there more like minded thinkers about that situation like we are?
No harsh lock down. I could go anywhere at anytime. I didn’t get a single V, but it didn’t cause much inconvenience. I probably bought 10 masks in two years. In the public spaces, the mask wearing was enforced, but nobody cared really and I wasn’t fined without wearing it.
During my time there it was relaxed, the police even turned a blind eye to things as they were on the same side as the citizens. i think it was fairly harsh at the very beginning with army stopping from crossing areas but that soon changed when we found out more about the virus.
Thanks alot!
If you haven't already and are interested in joining a community living or interested in living in Croatia please join us on Facebook facebook.com/groups/6953631684672220/
welcome back
Thanks!
Hows it going mate any suggestions for getting work for an irish man? Nothing left for me over here getting a one way flight to croatia next week
What skills you got?
If you want Irish people could come to Croatia to fix teeth ,it is much cheaper..so you could work on it
It seems you are searching for something? Croatia is just a place like any other with people who are nice, rotten and everything in between? Not to deny physical beauty of Croatia, it's the people who make the difference?
Human love and consideration is very much in low supply everywhere including Croatia. I hope you find what you are looking for
Hey Anna, Im looking for freedom & Peace. and a safe place for my family to grow up with out the brainwashing and wokeness of the west.
Yes freedom is state of mind and we the people must be willing to work for peace, wars do not happen because people love peace? The west is in very dark place at this time consumed by its love for individualism and materialism , wokesim it's is latest obsession. Perhaps we are all seeking unity, justice , peace ? in the process we get confused ?
croatia wanted to secede from Yugoslavija n serbs attacked with the might of yugoslav army. Thats how war started in a nutshell.
Dušane govoriš li Hrvatski? Kakvo ti je razumijevanje jezika?
Dušane, how is your Croatian/Serbian? How is your comprehension of the language?
Živia!
Cheers!
Da pricam jezik, ali slabo ;)
@@Dusan.Grujic Učiš li aktivno ili ideš pasivnim pristupom s obzirom da već nešto razumiješ i govoriš?
@@jd2379 Trenutno samo učim od ljudi s kojima razgovaram. U ovom trenutku bio sam previše zauzet da bih išao u neku školu
@@Dusan.Grujic Iz tvojeg iskustva, da li se s našim ljudima da sporazumjevati na engleskom? Bi li osoba koja govori samo engleski mogla živjeti u Hrvatskoj a da nikada ne nauči hrvatski?
From your experience, can you live your day to day life using only english? Let's say person doesn't want to learn croatian, could they still live there?
@@jd2379 I would say that you could live day to day speaking only English if you were renting and just doing normal stuff. BUT if you need anything at all sorting with bureaucracy then English is useless. I’m using Croatian language all the time here if you want to live here you need to learn it.
Tako je Dušane. Pa nećeš valjda u Srbiju.
idem tamo prilično često jer tamo imam porodicu, ali ne planiram da živim tamo.
Hi sir
How are you
Am ayyappan electrical engineer .I have interest to come to work in Croatia please i need your valuable support to me . Please refer to job opportunity for me..
Hello. I can't help you directly but I can give you advice. Croatia is a mostly secular, majority christian country. We are also 99% white and we've never really had non-white immigrants. People aren't very racist but they will think you are strange. However, there isn't a lot of crime here so you should be safe.
Our salaries also aren't as high as Germany or Netherlands so we emigrate for work too. It's becoming popular for asians to come and work here, so there should be many companies that will let you find work. Watch for scams, though. Also, if the company thinks you are planning to move to Croatia for work then leave for richer EU country using Schengen visa they will not hire you.
Do you watch Sargon and the lotus eaters channel?
Never heard of it
Welcome to Croatia.I actually envy u for the step u took.im kinda in the same situation,i moved overseas due to my wife being from there.now after 10 plus years my heart is crying to go back home.my body took a beating due to food change (gmo plastic) and food here in North America is horrible.my body is used to minerals and food from Cro. where i lived all my life and the change was drastic.Anyways,every summer i go back home its harder to leave and im thinking of moving back for a year with my kids to try it out so they can perfect the language and for me to get a break :).Were actually from the same place ,i think u mentioned Drniš area.I grew up there until the war started in 91.Croatia has some letargy in people that is still there from the time of Yugoslavia,but in my view it has grown a lot and since the EU,i think things are moving forward and mentally people are more professional and mature now then lets say 10-15 yrs ago.I think there has been a good progress.I think Croatia has the potential,people will move back and some new people will come to live there from the west,and the country will move forward.That next step is gonna be when this goverment HDZ is defeated on next election and some new ,fresh faces arrive because they are the ones who represent this letargy in the country and need to be replaced cause they are a horrible party and goverment that does nothing good on the lower levels of muncipalities etc.Croatian people are mentally good people,specially in the north and welcoming.I think most people that u meet fill find it great that people like u moved back and the country is richer for 2 yound parents who will contribute greatly due to mentality and will to change things around them.The thing about the west ,UK included is that its changing for the worst, i can see in school system and also the safety is not what it used to be with the influx of horrible immigration policies.Once again ,welcome.im hoping ur water and all other issues resolve soon so u can chill and make like nature videos or something :) after all the stress.but i think u wouldnt have as much stress if u bought a house already hooked up to all the utilities. :))
Thank you for your warm welcome and for sharing your own experiences with me. It's always interesting to hear from someone who has gone through a similar journey.
I can understand your desire to return to Croatia, especially with the physical toll that a change in diet and environment can take on one's body. It's great that you are able to go back to visit every summer and are considering a longer stay with your children to allow them to perfect the language and experience the culture.
I agree with you that Croatia has come a long way since the days of Yugoslavia, and that there is potential for even more progress in the future. It's unfortunate to hear about the issues with the current government, but I'm hopeful that new, fresh faces will be able to make a positive change.
As for the situation in the West, I understand your concerns about the changing school system and safety. Every country has its own unique set of challenges, and it's up to individuals to determine what is best for themselves and their families.
Thank you again for your kind words, and I hope to see you back in Croatia!
it's nice to live in a country without n-words ;
