Croatia is my favorite country, I fell in *LOVE* with Croatia the 1's sun vacation there. I live in Sweden but I can easily see myself living in Croatia! _HRVATSKA!_
As a Croatian, I have to say this is a good video, the only DON'T that is not correct is the one about tipping. Tipping is not mandatory as in some other countries, especially in a certain percentage. Ofcourse you should leave a tip if you were satisfied with the service/food, it's polite and makes both parties happy. And yeah, some of us may be proud but we don't get offended easily, especially if you're a tourist...
English is a compulsory subject in croatian schools. 8 years in primary school, and then the secondary school. So, yes, people do know english around here
Ivan Poparić yep whell in my school English is secondary but eh ik English I'm the best in my class, well my godfathers and godmothers son is the same age as me but hes a little older then me Like few weeks we know English Like the same as well so we're kinda budys we sometimes talk in English trough meseges and when we see eachother is person
Ja dalje mislin da dobro pricamo engleski jer ga nakon skole dosta koristimo i odrzavamo. Najvise smatram da je to zbog titlovanih filmova. Konstanto slusas i citas, odrzavas jezik. Pogledaj zemlje koje sinkroniziraju filmove, malo i nista pricaju engleski iako su ga imali u skoli
I am Italian and in my experience Croatians speak exactly as they think. Also they like those who show respect and have a good behaviour. If you have these two qualities you can make many croatian friends. I remember never ending conversations with croatians met right in the street. Just be fair and respectful
@gamewizard I What about fascists? You seriously wanna bring history up? We, Croats, don't like talking about history because it seems like in the Balkan everybody disagrees with others... Its safer not to talk about it, at least not face to face.
i would add one more thing. Don't skip the "inland" part of country. The seaside is great but the rest of the country is beautifull as well (best example are Plitvička jezera).
And you can enter Plitvice freely! What a gem! For me, it's the best national park in Europe. Hands down. The park itself and the structure behind it. Very nice indeed.
Im from saudi arabia 🇸🇦 And I wanna say that my actual dream is to visit croatia i have a huge love for this country i even drew croatia's map which i didn't do it for saudi arabia lol i really Hope that one day i will be able to visit u Btw i watch football and i always watch croatia when they play😉♥️
Was on holiday in Croatia a couple of weeks ago . What a fantastic country. Agree with everything you said but one add on is tap water is ok to drink no need to buy loads of bottled water. And the cevapci is to die for :)
our tap water is one of the best waters in europe, btw the bottled water you can buy there is that same water actually coming from jana spring or velebit. trust me lol my uncle from germ was buying it and only later realized it was the same water. as a croat i can assure u it is the truth
And also 2 things: 1) Please don't swim on your floaties to the islands that seem close bc they are NOT 2) Don't hike in your flip flops bc you are most likely going to brake few bones or even die (The first one refers especially on Czech and Slovak tourists bc I'm done with the everyday news about few Czech/Slovak lads floating from Zadar to Ugljan (15 km) and almost drowning
Domagoj Tušek also DO NOT put ur (rented) yacht on autopilot while u go drink wodka below deck and also DO NOT go kayaking when locals tell u there is a storm coming. (Refering to the russians that autopiloted their boat straight into an island and all of them died horribly and horribly drunk I guess in the resulting explosion, and the tourist who 2 years ago died while kayaking through a storm after she was warned about the weather... me and my dad found the peddels a few days after washed up on a beach) And ps DO NOT try to kiss the oleander flowers; they are deadly poisonous xd (saw a german tourist try that had to stop him lol) u can touch the plant but wash hands before touching ur mouth or food and such, don't let kids play w this plant pls. Romans used it to make a poisonous drink for executions so did medieval housewives to get rid of their husbands etc. Little fun fact :D
And dont touch a snake called "poskok" . It is poisonous snake a we have case last summer when tourist from Netherland touch this snake on mountain Biokovo and almost died. It is not like in Australia or Africa but but be careful in nature.
Ok so I'm 14 and I've lived in Croatia for 10 years now and let me tell you, we are a small Country with only 4.4 million people and I love seeing UA-camrs make videos about hiw beautiful Croatia is. It really is an amazing place to go during the summer. The ocean is all around you in the hot weather and there is old churches, houses and museums everywhere. There is so many nice places to go. I can only recommend it.
@@docm2172 yea. You didn't really specify what you would work as. But yes. I would recommend some in the direction of tourism. Being a seller also isn't bad (cars etc.)
Shazna I don’t suggest working in Croatia, the wages here are average or below average. Every year, more and more young people are moving out of our country after finishing school to look for a better place to live. Just a suggestion from a Croat, cheers.

@Aleksa Stankovic It is heartwarming to read your post. I'm an American of part Croatian decent. As an American, I've never experienced the dislike between Serbs and Croats. Lately, I've heard more about the two peoples getting along and I believe that is a very good thing. Have a Wonderful and Blessed day. 🙏
Croatian over here speaking.... Biggest don't of them all (adding to the last one)....Never, never ever ever refuse free food and drinks especially if offered to you by older people. Even if you are full....take just a few bites if you really cant eat but never refuse....cuz even if you do give a good reason why you cant eat you will be asked again and again for like 10 times and then they will get mad 😂😂
Umm well...that isn’t entirely true because you do need to now the difference between a person trying to Nicely give you food and the sketchy ones that look like they will poison you I’m from croatia and think the people are AMAZING and so sooo nice but there like in any country have some weird and sketchy people!
Tipping in Croatia is actually not mandatory, nor is it expected. Of course, the waiters are happy to receive it, but nowhere does it say you should tip and I have no idea where you got those 10% from. No need to feel awkward if you don't wanna tip, especially if the service is not extraordinary.
@@Imikacic It's different than in the US for example, in US tipping is basically mandatory because they have a smaller starting salary so they expect to earn rest of salary via tips. Meanwhile, in Europe, everyone has a decent starting wage, so tips are just bonuses. So 2 totally different situations.
@@jdalbion well, salary in croatia isn't very good either... everything may be cheap for tourists but for us here isn't so it's nice when someone tips you even if you are only selling ice cream...
I live in Croatia . As a Croatian I could say that we have beautiful sea and nature and history museums and places. And all of us are so proud. You must to wisit Croatia is beautiful!
One tip. The Croation coast has lots of houses with rooms for rent. Many of them have there own kitchens and bathrooms. It can be better and cheaper than pre-booking a hotel. They usually display a sign at the front, walk up and knock on their door, try visiting the local tourist information centre to get some more info or keep an eye out around ports or ferry terminals for owners looking for business.
Thanks! It really was. aside from those rocks and an occasion sea anemone :) but yeah, loved our time there. Seemed like you had a good time in croatia too from your videos :) all the best where ever you find yourself in the world these days.
Only partially true, meaning that it is not expected from you to tip but it's greatly apreciated since waiters dont have big salaries to begin with. But it's not like 10% is obligated, it's more like for example if the bill is 115 kunas you round it up to 120 kunas (that's roughly one dollar tip) or if you are really happy with service or feeling generous you can round it up to 150 kunas (around 5 bucks tip) etc. Oh and don't feel preasured to tip, you can only tip if you are satisfied with waiters service :)
Mom's spaghetti i guess you never worked in hospitality lololololol, who would work as waiter if noone tipped them?? It only makes sense to work that hard with basically no days off for months because of the tips, or you maybe think that 5000kn is awsome wage
Even with what you said, tipping is not required in Croatia. People usually tip few HRK to round up the bill, but it is not required to give anyone 10-15-20% because our waiters are getting paid normal salaries. I have never said you should never tip, of course, it is welcomed. But it is NOT required and no one will spit in your food because you haven't given them a tip. Food spitting usually happens if you are being an obnoxious douchebag. :D
Croatia is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. I am from Norway and we are proud of our clean water, but clearer water than in Croatia you should look for a long time. In addition, my asthma was gone all week while we were in Croatia. We were at Brac, the people were wonderful and the food was good. Really recommend a trip to this country.
Nubianette thx for seying that I'm from Croatia and I don't hate France but my dad does Idk why but anyways the welcome for croatian football team was like olmoust 7 hours they we're 6 hours driving from the airport to the main place where the event was happening and they landed around 2 or 3 pm not really shure but I'm glad that there is so much love for Croatia i mean I'm crying when i hear how peapole that are not croatian cheer for Croatia and support it
It's simply sensational after just 27 years the restorative beauty and aesthetic appeal that has been brought to Croatia after the war and conflict. There is a deeply rooted sense of pride in the Croatian people in their tourist product offering and that really stood out to me during my time spent there. It touched me personally and I really admire and appreciate that aspect of their being
its not that we dont want to take Euro, its just that Croatia did not convert to Euro jet and its against the law to take other currencies, as it would be in any other country. If they catch anyone taking euro in ur store or restaurant they would probably shut it down with a ticket in numbers up to 50k Euros....
Oh no 😂 How do you guys manage to walk around the rocky beaches?! I'm afraid I will look funny when I visit this year, apologies in advance if you see a pale english girl awkwardly walking on your beaches haha.
@@mihaelamiocevic9720 Lol that's so wrong, don't listen to her, wear your shoes if you want to, I actually advise you to do so because it's dumb not to wear them. Like, why would you suffer in agony when you don't have to. I'm a Croatian and my family and I always wear water shoes.
Auana Ghena what cities are you planning to visit? Also a quick tip since I just saw it few comments ago and it is rare in some countries: you can drink tap water, you don't need to buy waterbottles if you're planning to sleep in a hotel :)
Asphalt My friend went to Belgrade and for a bet he had to stand up put 2 fingers up and say "I am Croat". Normally, this is a thing nobody does, but nobody noticed or didn't care to doo something about it.
Danja Creeper :-P Being a tourist doesnt mean you have to be from another country it means that you visit a place where you dont live. So if you dont live near the coast you are a tourist wearing those shoes.
Nice to hear a tourist treat my city with respect.I live in Dubrovnik,inside the city walls.I have some more don'ts though- Don't sit in the middle of the street in the old town,especially in front of somebodys door or window Dont yell so much as you are walking down the street,especially at night,like I said people do live here,my neighbour has two small children who get waken up all the time.I know you came here to party but you have to realize people live here and are not comfortable you behaving thois way in front of their home!
Croatia has a lot to interesting places. In the summer it is so crowded, which is why many tourists (at least from my country) are increasingly choosing Montenegro and Albania. My friend chooses Albania, because prices are lower, there are no crowds and you feel like a real explorer. I love northern neighbor - Slovenia. Probably the most underrated country in Europe.
Uncle Chuckles Maybe Budva in Montenegro. In July and August Croatia is crowded. It's better to go there at the beginning of September. If you want something similar at a low price, go to Saranda in Albania. I have not been there, but my friend has been going there for several years and is happy.
I’ve been there in April and absolutely falling in love with Croatia. People are very nice and kind. Every city we’ve visitted is genuinely lovely and the food is really great. this is one of my most favourite country so far:)
As far as tipping in restaurants goes: Ask the server if they get to keep it. There are some restaurant owners that do not allow the server to keep the tips we give.
@@taekedewit that is bs.i would never leave a tip if i know boss will take it.i worked in bars,restaurants and i never let anyone to touch my tips.you are giving it to person who served you and they deserve it. if service is not good you dont leave it.
@@taekedewit yes it is bs.i would share my tips with the cook always bc he did half of the job.but that's it. so when boss takes up his ass,runs around like a moron(bc i am the only one working as waitress),takes bs from guests who always have something to say,when he doesn't have time to drink water or eat for 10 hours,and he is doing all of that with a smile on his face(don't forget i am running in the middle of the summer,across the street!!! to serve guests while AC is off and you are working for a min.wage while he is buying new car and building apartmants), he can take my tips.
That’s just false. We like all the beaches, at least we, Dalmatians. And you have some sandy beaches in Croatia just not on the islands. Bačvice in Split, Duce just near Split. I am sure you can find more I am literally from there and those are pretty famous. Even Zlatni rat is not rocky beach but fine granules, gravel beach.
Croatian here. Thank you for your great and surprisingly correct video. Few corrections though: there are both rocky and sandy beaches in Croatia. I prefer rocky (pebbles) because sand gets everywhere in your clothes and body so it's only a matter of personal preference. Also, tipping is not obligatory, but a way of showing appreciation to kitchen and/or service personnel. You can pay only what's on the bill, but if you were really satisfied, tip accordingly. Greetings from Dubrovnik! 😊🇭🇷
We were in Dubrovnik and Korčula ..loved the people,the history and the food!!! Trying to learn some croatian now. Beautiful country!! Highly recommended!!Hvala van!!
I’m half Croatian, the second one is so important. My family left Croatian in 1960, my grand parents suffered greatly all of our family that stayed in Croatia died in conflict my aunts and uncles hearts still bleed for their lost family.
Thank you for exposing our beautiful country to the world. We really do rely heavily on tourism so it’s so nice to see someone appreciate it. Everyone should visit Croatia at least once.
I am assuming this video is for those that have no cultural competency, many people are expressive when they talk. Really he had to reassure tourists that this is not arguing? The don'ts is just common sense? Saying something negative about the country in front of Locals? Ummm that would be stupid
Haha my mom and aunt were talking Croatian in a supermarket once, and one man actually asked if they were arguing. They were talking about watermelons.
@@vellabella1 I'm a new Zealander with Croatian heritage. We go there every year to visit our cousins in split. I constantly thought that my cousin and his mum were arguing when they talked. I asked him what they were always fightinf about and he said "no no just having chat we not arguing. I guess talking is different everywhere.
Wolters World I’d love to know how you began traveling the world and how you can afford to do so so often. I mean, are you independently wealthy? I think you said once that you’re a professor, but even that career doesn’t seem to allow enough time or money for a whole family to afford all that. I’m only curious because I want to do what you’re doing. I’m so jealous. 🤓
Tekstil Art Wow aren't you a jealous hater, I hope your life gets better so you can be nicer to people, maybe you just need to get laid, good luck with that😉
Tekstil Art I don’t even know how to unpack all that is wrong with your question, but I am not going to sink to your level. I just want you to know that you’re being very hurtful because you are completely uninformed about this wonderful man. I hope to goodness that you don’t continue to act this way again toward someone you don’t know. It’s going to bring the quality of your life way, way down. What goes around comes around. True.
Looks like a beautiful country. I hope I can go there, someday. It is so great to know that they have pride in their country. That is how it is supposed to be, for every one. Mark, I love your vids. My 20-something daughter does too. She passes your vid links to so many of her friends. :)
+brabham74 Europe is full of amazing landscapes, ancient places and especially rich in different cultures. I'm german and from Bavaria (close to the Alps) and here we still celebrate pre-christian pagan traditions and every single time an american tourist happens to come here during any of these pagan traditions by accident and takes part or watches they always say things like "Oh wow, i had no idea this existed, none of my travel guides and books i read mentioned any of this." Which is somewhat sad that american but also other travel guides ignore the ancient and deeply cultural events all over Europe. Usually people only come to Bavaria knowing about "Oktoberfest" and "Schloss Neuschwanstein". The same goes for other areas and not only Bavaria, Germany. There are also pre-christian 1000+ year old festivities and traditions practiced every year in parts of Austria, Slovakia, France, Romania (especially the transylvanian region), Bulgaria etc. We always are happy when some american tourists end up watching or taking part in these ancient traditions, because nobody advertises it for some reason, they always just end up experiencing it by accident. I point this out here because i see it more and more often among american media claiming that there is barely anything cultural in Europe nor anything endangered, which is not true. Recently a french photographer made it his mission to visit most of these pre-christian pagan traditions and festivities and take pictures. Just google: Charles Fréger - Wilder Mann Or check on youtube for traditions we have here in Bavaria like "Perchtenlauf" and if you ever come here, make sure to come by and experience it, it doesn't cost anything either and you'll learn a lot about something US and other worldwide media sadly ignores. In Croatia there are also many things and traditions to see of the same vein that no travel guide seems to talk about sadly. Lots to explore over all. Grüß di from Bavaria
It's a beautiful country.... for visiting and vacation! ...and then escaping to your more financially secure and more stable state in probably every other way in comparison. Trust this from local. Yess.. we have beautiful sea... luckily I live on it, otherwise, if I was inland, then I would be only visited this place newer in my life too. And probably would live in Ireland too like the rest of my (smarter? unlucky? - don't know time would tell) country fellowmen... and for the record, it's been called Croatistan, just for better class clarification. We are proud people! So proud you could not even tell us things in-joke, because, it is our Christian right to be offended if you joke about our shit other nations let go in the past (proud example is WW2 and NDH, but every other topic would do too) So yes.. just be lucky to be in right part of the town and start that conversation... boy you would have so many memories to tell your grandchildren then!!! Probably you would laugh at that incident too, in some 10 years when your memory of that trauma would be clouded.
Ive been randomly travelling around Europe for months and my new don’t do is, travel to a country without watching your videos first!! Thank you for keeping me right man 👍
The tipping thing is a lie...you dont have to tip at all.. almost no croatian tips at the restaurant they go to like every few weeks...they would go broke..still appreciate the tips for tourists..... Nadam se da vam je lijepo u hrv
@@mikhoozagsar2584 ne...govori o cijeloj obali...Istra, Rijeka, Dalmacija itd...jer prica samo za turiste, a nebi bas reko da ce turisti u sred ljeta ic u Zagorje...
I visited Croatia years ago - the island of Krk, with a Croatian coworker and some other Brits. A very nice week, amazing weather and beaches - maybe time for another visit soon. My godmother’s nephew went and got married on a beach in Croatia a couple of years back too. Sounded like a great way to do a wedding: small party, great weather and views.
I think Croatia's World Cup success is only going to increase the amount of tourism there, as many, at least here in the US, know relatively little about the country.
Idk what to sey to this but why do you think that my country ps Croatia has sufferd a lot i even lost my unckle in the last war but Croatia is a beautiful country that will fight agen if we need, Croatia is the olny country that has won every war and we are proud of it so if you think that all we care about is money and tourists your wrong we love our country because it's diffrend and beautiful in it's own way
Ed Lawn I've always wondered do any America's actually know for croatia. i have some internet friends for USA, and it took a while to explain where i live,where is croatia hahaha
The problem is, you don't realize that the perspectives you get, and the "facts" you get about the recent history there is incredibly skewed & manipulated via your own government's propaganda, which is obviously being made to try to make Serbia look like a victim and a otherwise grand nation. And the nationalism you & the rest of serbs have prevents you from taking notice of this fact. It's like most nations. The US manipulates and makes false statements and claims ALL THE TIME about itself in order to get it's own people to think that their government and country is the best of the best, and they never do anything bad or wrong, while pushing that propaganda bs onto other nations they decide their people should hate. And with the gruesome amount of nationalism the average US citizen holds themselves, they of course never question it. This is always how dictatorships form as well. Throughout history, the Nationalist agendas of each nationalist nation used this nationalism to isolate, self-glorify, and then manipulate information as it came in in order to control the citizen's feelings, opinions & beliefs about history, their country, other countries, other beliefs and other peoples. And with such nationalism, it's pretty much set in stone most of the people within that nationalistic nation will never even think to question almost anything their government and media tells them. Serbia is a mimic of the US, Turkey & China in a lot of ways, and this is one of them. Nationalist, Self-Righteous Propaganda, and their citizens eat it all up immediately without hesitation, because "of course it's the truth!". If one was able to find their ways around the controlled and heavily contorted information, perspectives and history they've been fed, they'd finally see a endless heap of information, history and perspectives throughout time that'd immediately contradict everything the person has ever known, since their information and history is so heavily propaganda based lies. I did this here, and I read so much information and history, perspectives, and documentation across the south slavic region, including all sorts of Serbian stuff, and unfortunately, there are only two nations history that simply does not line up with the history prior to the history in focus, which is the last roughly couple hundred years, but especially the last 125 or so years there. Those two nations? Serbia, and Albania. Everyone elses lines up with prior history, it all makes perfect sense, it all perfectly correlates with each other. And, they each correlate and match up with each other's. The only two that do not yet again is Serbian and Albanian. Serbia is probably the most different one by a long shot too. Not even Italy, nor Romania, Hungary, nor Austria last I checked matched a single bit of Serbian information and history. It's so far out there. And it's all making itself look like it was the only victim from all the things everywhere else notes your country did to the others, namely Croatia and Bosnia. Now Croatia did indeed begin a vicious assault during the "last" war in the 90s against Serbia, but as a defensive retaliation against Serbia attempting to launch genocide of Croats in Croatia. Serbia attempted this once they got the world's attention on their genocide of Bosnians. It was a reactive defense they launched on Serbia at the time in a rushed panic, to attempt to prevent Serbia from committing that genocide of the Croatian people within their own country. They saw what Serbia was doing to the Bosnians, and knew that Serbia was attempting to do the very same to them, and they were already late in realizing that Serbia was already well on it's way to beginning that genocide of Croats. Like a heavily abused dog trapped in a corner, they when into a panicked defense mode. The quickly after the war ended admitted that that specific action was wrong, but they know that there isn't much else one could've expected them to do in such a panicked rush to save their own country and people from the Serbian invasion. But that is the only horrible thing the Croatians did to Serbia, let alone to anyone else. It was in a panicked defense. And they own up to the fact it wasn't a acceptable response. Serbia? Serbia still pretends they never even committed the genocide of the Bosnians. The entire world was watching the Serbians do it live, and it was then passed onto us later generations. To pretend like something the entire world saw & witnessed did happen is arguably the most incredibly immature and arrogant thing Serbia could possibly do. Yet here they are, still demanding it never happened to this very day. What they did to the Bosnians was what they wanted to do to the Croats, which caused the Croats to react defensively once they found this out. They, like any other country were NOT going to just lay back and allow it to happen as the Bosnians did. The Bosnians didn't do anything about it at all until VERY late, when the UN FORCED them into military action again Serbia and their mass genocide of Bosnians. Bosnia did NOT want another war. They didn't want any war. Yet they ended up being forced into the war very late by the UN. the Croats saw what Serbia was doing to Bosnia and would not accept sitting idly by and let it happen like the Bosnians did. It's as simple as that, oddly enough. So the claims that Croatia is evil, was a Nazi puppet, etc is plain false, and is well-known Serbian propaganda, which they demand to continue to churn out every single day to the world and continue to pretend it is all actual facts, when it couldn't be further from the truth. the hard reality is, Serbia was the nation Serbia claims Croatia was. And sadly, proving governments control and manipulated what "facts" and "history" you see, the US recently switched out all info and "history" on the south slavic region for Serbian made propaganda, which is known as self-righteous lies. Originally, one could actually easily find and study ALL south slavic countries perspectives, information, history and facts about it all. That's how I was able to read and study it all. Thus also how I know it was very recent. It was only a few months ago it was still without any biased info and history. no doubt this is definitely a predictable Donald Trump move, since he has always long adored authoritarian leaders and countries who perpetually churn out their own self-righteous lies we all call propaganda.
I visited Croatia 2 years ago. There was some game they had vs Serbia which they lost. The whole place started yelling something, i didnt understand since i dont speak their language, im Greek. I asked my friend who is Croatian she said it means Hang the Serbs. Since then i never will go there because i saw so much hate in the population that its hard to describe. Also i am very familar with WW2 history and its general knowledge that Croatians did do mass exterminations of Jews, Gypsies, Serbs and Bosnians during WW2 In general, we Greeks also avoid Croatia since its well known how they hate all orthodox nations. Its just sad that some people try to defend their crimes like you do.
I have no mana have nothing Bullshit . I was also in Greece 2 years ago and they were also shouting to kill croatians , turks and albanians ... Terrible nation
je skupo je jako i sve skuplje svake godine Pogotovo negdje u Dalmacije Imam srecu jer zivim blizu Pa trosak benzina ili badava A sve ostalo je ludnica
I'm from Croatia and i really love my country my advice is to go to islands, Pula, Split, Šibenik, Zadar and Dubrovnik. Also if u want to go somewhere in the middle maybe visit the capital city Zagreb and visit Slavonija. I think every part of Croatia is special and different. Also you can visit Plitvička jezera and Slapovi Krke🌎❤
3:06 A lot of times they sell water shoes at the beaches. And i really recommend getting/bringing them because walking on stone beaches feels like walking on Legos 😂
Lol- You can always tell the tourists from the locals by those shoes. I'm Croatian so I don't even feel the pain. But yeah, almost all tourists wear them
You hit it on the nail! A few years ago , I went to Croatia with a friend who's father was from there . We ended up having a local drive us from Zadar into the town of Nin where his dad lived . The local needed to ask for directions to find the precise street..... so the local stopped to ask another local for directions, and to me it sounded like they were arguing and wanted to kill eachother ! But it turned out they were just conversing normally... fun times ! I would love to go back
I used to have Chinese neighbors and they conversed the same way. They'd be in the back yard working the garden, but sounding like ready to kill each other. lol
Especially , the people from the Caribbean (Cuba, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico ( this a US territory ) They talk loud. Like they were on a market. Living in Miami for many years, you are used to it.
I love that I live in Bosnia and Herzegovina,B and H is a pretty mountaines country so I do a lot of mountaneiring and skiing but then when summer comes I go to the sea in croatia,croatia has the most beautifull coastline and I find that Bosnia is the oposite because it has the most beautiful mountains and hills.When people come to my country they go to Sarajevo and Mostar but I tell them go to the mountains Sorry for my bad english,its my second languange
bosnian yeah your English is good, English is second in my school to but thx to my two brothers ik English preety well and me and my godfathers and godmothers son are the same age and same good at English (we're the best in our class) and like your English is better then English of some students in my class

Croatia is absolutely beautiful. We sailed from Monfalcone to Pula with several port calls along the way, and it was the best vacation I've ever had. If you've ever thought about visiting, do it, you won't be disappointed.
It is beautiful, but beauty isn't everything. The place gets overrun by over 20 MILLION tourists (mostly Germans) during the summer season. You can't even get a room for less than $300 if they're available at all. And the food is not good. It's super overpriced, over hyped and rarely tasty at all.
For those who are watching this now, we pay in Euros and not all these things aresame in all cities, like in Neretva beaches are sandy but in Dubrovnik very rocky, Croatiand rarely wear water shoes but tourists wear them becuase rocky beaches are new to them
The restaurant tip is a lie. In Croatia, service and tip is already included in price by default (most of the time that fact is stated on the price list). Nobody will refuse the tip (I myself prefer to tip if I'm *really* satisfied with the service), but you are not obliged to tip.
Croatia is beautiful and I love it. Every single inch of the land is spectacular. Whenever I go there I regret not staying longer, actually wishing to stay there forever. Greetings from Novi Sad.
@@woltersworld I'm so happy to hear that. I love the fact that people are starting to see the beauty of this part of the World. I hope you will have a wonderful stay there if you decide to go back to Croatia.
If you don't wear water shoes you will instantly get +50 respect from Croatians around you.

As a Croatian, I have to say this is a good video, the only DON'T that is not correct is the one about tipping. Tipping is not mandatory as in some other countries, especially in a certain percentage. Ofcourse you should leave a tip if you were satisfied with the service/food, it's polite and makes both parties happy. And yeah, some of us may be proud but we don't get offended easily, especially if you're a tourist...

Real Croats step on sea urchins and then get the various spines picked out with broken shells.
Yes, yes😂😂
I've lived in Croatia 9 years and I've never worn the shoes because they look stupid 😂😂
English is a compulsory subject in croatian schools. 8 years in primary school, and then the secondary school. So, yes, people do know english around here
Ivan Poparić yep whell in my school English is secondary but eh ik English I'm the best in my class, well my godfathers and godmothers son is the same age as me but hes a little older then me Like few weeks we know English Like the same as well so we're kinda budys we sometimes talk in English trough meseges and when we see eachother is person

I am Italian and in my experience Croatians speak exactly as they think. Also they like those who show respect and have a good behaviour. If you have these two qualities you can make many croatian friends. I remember never ending conversations with croatians met right in the street. Just be fair and respectful

Advice for italians if you want to give respect try to tip sometimes
@gamewizard I What about fascists? You seriously wanna bring history up? We, Croats, don't like talking about history because it seems like in the Balkan everybody disagrees with others... Its safer not to talk about it, at least not face to face.
i would add one more thing. Don't skip the "inland" part of country. The seaside is great but the rest of the country is beautifull as well (best example are Plitvička jezera).
Yes. I was editing and couldn't believe I forgot that part. Zagreb and mountainous part needed more representation in the video
Wolters World a lot of work u have here.

@@vanillaextract9702 come take me
How come?
Was on holiday in Croatia a couple of weeks ago . What a fantastic country. Agree with everything you said but one add on is tap water is ok to drink no need to buy loads of bottled water. And the cevapci is to die for :)
Pat Savage 😂 ćevapi best food glad to hear you like them come back to Croatia soon if posible and enyoiy Croatia
Pat Savage
Actually, ćevapčići is a meal from Bosnia and Herzegovina.
If you liked cevapi in Croatia, you would probably LOVE them in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the mainland of cevapi :)
our tap water is one of the best waters in europe, btw the bottled water you can buy there is that same water actually coming from jana spring or velebit. trust me lol my uncle from germ was buying it and only later realized it was the same water. as a croat i can assure u it is the truth
Pat Savage CEVAPI ARE LIFE HERE OK if you respect cevapi, god, our football (team) you're welcome.:)))
And also 2 things:
1) Please don't swim on your floaties to the islands that seem close bc they are NOT
2) Don't hike in your flip flops bc you are most likely going to brake few bones or even die
(The first one refers especially on Czech and Slovak tourists bc I'm done with the everyday news about few Czech/Slovak lads floating from Zadar to Ugljan (15 km) and almost drowning
Domagoj Tušek also DO NOT put ur (rented) yacht on autopilot while u go drink wodka below deck and also DO NOT go kayaking when locals tell u there is a storm coming. (Refering to the russians that autopiloted their boat straight into an island and all of them died horribly and horribly drunk I guess in the resulting explosion, and the tourist who 2 years ago died while kayaking through a storm after she was warned about the weather... me and my dad found the peddels a few days after washed up on a beach)
And ps DO NOT try to kiss the oleander flowers; they are deadly poisonous xd (saw a german tourist try that had to stop him lol) u can touch the plant but wash hands before touching ur mouth or food and such, don't let kids play w this plant pls. Romans used it to make a poisonous drink for executions so did medieval housewives to get rid of their husbands etc. Little fun fact :D
V Vv 👍😃
Be smart on vacation
And dont touch a snake called "poskok" . It is poisonous snake a we have case last summer when tourist from Netherland touch this snake on mountain Biokovo and almost died. It is not like in Australia or Africa but but be careful in nature.
Ma di 15 km čovječe, od Zadra do Ugljana je 5-6 km :D

It really is an amazing place to go during the summer. The ocean is all around you in the hot weather and there is old churches, houses and museums everywhere. There is so many nice places to go. I can only recommend it.

@@docm2172 yea. You didn't really specify what you would work as. But yes. I would recommend some in the direction of tourism. Being a seller also isn't bad (cars etc.)
@@docm2172 the currency in Croatia is KUNA. A cook for example earns approximately 10,500 kuna a month which is 1,600 US DOLLARS.

Tipping in Croatia is actually not mandatory, nor is it expected. Of course, the waiters are happy to receive it, but nowhere does it say you should tip and I have no idea where you got those 10% from. No need to feel awkward if you don't wanna tip, especially if the service is not extraordinary.
Of course it's not mandatory, It's not mandatory anywhere. Your post is like saying: Don't tip in Croatia. I can tell you've never waited tables.
Bravo panglu
@@Imikacic It's different than in the US for example, in US tipping is basically mandatory because they have a smaller starting salary so they expect to earn rest of salary via tips. Meanwhile, in Europe, everyone has a decent starting wage, so tips are just bonuses. So 2 totally different situations.
@@Imikacic Nah, in the USA, if you don't tip you're frowned upon
@@jdalbion well, salary in croatia isn't very good either... everything may be cheap for tourists but for us here isn't so it's nice when someone tips you even if you are only selling ice cream...

I live in Croatia . As a Croatian I could say that we have beautiful sea and nature and history museums and places. And all of us are so proud. You must to wisit Croatia is beautiful!
One tip. The Croation coast has lots of houses with rooms for rent. Many of them have there own kitchens and bathrooms. It can be better and cheaper than pre-booking a hotel. They usually display a sign at the front, walk up and knock on their door, try visiting the local tourist information centre to get some more info or keep an eye out around ports or ferry terminals for owners looking for business.
Driver6M I would add, visit/stay in little towns on the coast. All of them are beautiful and cosy.
Most of the apartments are pre booked so is better to find one on the internet and prenote one and then come to Croatia..

Have you seen Zadar?
as a croatian, you pretty much nailed everything :D
thank you :) hvala
nema na čemu! hope you have a wonderful time in my country :)
Is the tipping thing true?? I was never told to tip :o
Only partially true, meaning that it is not expected from you to tip but it's greatly apreciated since waiters dont have big salaries to begin with.
But it's not like 10% is obligated, it's more like for example if the bill is 115 kunas you round it up to 120 kunas (that's roughly one dollar tip) or if you are really happy with service or feeling generous you can round it up to 150 kunas (around 5 bucks tip) etc.
Oh and don't feel preasured to tip, you can only tip if you are satisfied with waiters service :)
As a semi-Croatian: Agreed! :)
Water shoes? But then you don't experience the real Croatia!
Great video!
WELCOME TO CROATIA!
This true :)
I am croatian and i agree
Tipping is not required in Croatia. We pay our waiters and Tipping is usually done only when you are really satisfied with the service.
Mom's spaghetti i guess you never worked in hospitality lololololol, who would work as waiter if noone tipped them?? It only makes sense to work that hard with basically no days off for months because of the tips, or you maybe think that 5000kn is awsome wage
Even with what you said, tipping is not required in Croatia. People usually tip few HRK to round up the bill, but it is not required to give anyone 10-15-20% because our waiters are getting paid normal salaries.
I have never said you should never tip, of course, it is welcomed. But it is NOT required and no one will spit in your food because you haven't given them a tip.
Food spitting usually happens if you are being an obnoxious douchebag. :D
Mom's spaghetti exactly!! People usually tip in countries where workers get paid bare minimum.
Mom's spaghetti what is a normal salary in tourism for you?
Pusti ljude nek daju mancu ljudima sta seres, odmazes nam samo

It's simply sensational after just 27 years the restorative beauty and aesthetic appeal that has been brought to Croatia after the war and conflict. There is a deeply rooted sense of pride in the Croatian people in their tourist product offering and that really stood out to me during my time spent there. It touched me personally and I really admire and appreciate that aspect of their being
@Jerome Beharry wow,beautiful comment.Thanks and greetings from Pearl of Adriatic(Dubrovnik).
its not that we dont want to take Euro, its just that Croatia did not convert to Euro jet and its against the law to take other currencies, as it would be in any other country. If they catch anyone taking euro in ur store or restaurant they would probably shut it down with a ticket in numbers up to 50k Euros....

Danja Creeper :-P Being a tourist doesnt mean you have to be from another country it means that you visit a place where you dont live. So if you dont live near the coast you are a tourist wearing those shoes.
Filip Matković yes, for example if you're from Zagreb and come to Zadar, they will consider you a tourist.

Nice to hear a tourist treat my city with respect.I live in Dubrovnik,inside the city walls.I have some more don'ts though-
Don't sit in the middle of the street in the old town,especially in front of somebodys door or window
Dont yell so much as you are walking down the street,especially at night,like I said people do live here,my neighbour has two small children who get waken up all the time.I know you came here to party but you have to realize people live here and are not comfortable you behaving thois way in front of their home!
How Beautiful Croatia is.. Fantastic and it doesnt look super busy as others
well in august it can be super busy for sure :) but its great
Croatia has a lot to interesting places. In the summer it is so crowded, which is why many tourists (at least from my country) are increasingly choosing Montenegro and Albania. My friend chooses Albania, because prices are lower, there are no crowds and you feel like a real explorer. I love northern neighbor - Slovenia. Probably the most underrated country in Europe.
Szymon Zieliński thanks man
Kristijan Car Thank you.. i prefer smaller less busy places.
Uncle Chuckles
Maybe Budva in Montenegro. In July and August Croatia is crowded. It's better to go there at the beginning of September. If you want something similar at a low price, go to Saranda in Albania. I have not been there, but my friend has been going there for several years and is happy.
I’ve been there in April and absolutely falling in love with Croatia. People are very nice and kind. Every city we’ve visitted is genuinely lovely and the food is really great. this is one of my most favourite country so far:)

Ask the server if they get to keep it. There are some restaurant owners that do not allow the server to keep the tips we give.
That's everywere bosses are not obligated to share tips

@@taekedewit yes it is bs.i would share my tips with the cook always bc he did half of the job.but that's it. so when boss takes up his ass,runs around like a moron(bc i am the only one working as waitress),takes bs from guests who always have something to say,when he doesn't have time to drink water or eat for 10 hours,and he is doing all of that with a smile on his face(don't forget i am running in the middle of the summer,across the street!!! to serve guests while AC is off and you are working for a min.wage while he is buying new car and building apartmants), he can take my tips.
much love from serbia :-*
It's funny how many Croats actually HATE sand beaches 😂 I guess we are so used to rocks 😂
I fucking hate the sandy beaches thank god they are rare here in pula maybe 2 of em.
I dont like being with no shoes on sand lol but I do it
@@svenci6441 da tako i u splitu, bačvice i firule to je to
I personally prefer sand beaches, there's a really really good one in Sabunike near Nin.
That’s just false. We like all the beaches, at least we, Dalmatians. And you have some sandy beaches in Croatia just not on the islands. Bačvice in Split, Duce just near Split. I am sure you can find more I am literally from there and those are pretty famous. Even Zlatni rat is not rocky beach but fine granules, gravel beach.
Croatian here. Thank you for your great and surprisingly correct video. Few corrections though: there are both rocky and sandy beaches in Croatia. I prefer rocky (pebbles) because sand gets everywhere in your clothes and body so it's only a matter of personal preference.
Also, tipping is not obligatory, but a way of showing appreciation to kitchen and/or service personnel. You can pay only what's on the bill, but if you were really satisfied, tip accordingly.
Greetings from Dubrovnik! 😊🇭🇷
Ivan Sentić Nice big kiss
Istina xD
Dubrovnik; first place I visited outside the U.S. Loved it!
greetings from dubrovnik!
I'm basically in Croatia every year, 4 hour drive from Bosnia, I love the sea and their beaches, it's beautiful.
We were in Dubrovnik and Korčula ..loved the people,the history and the food!!! Trying to learn some croatian now. Beautiful country!! Highly recommended!!Hvala van!!
I’m half Croatian, the second one is so important. My family left Croatian in 1960, my grand parents suffered greatly all of our family that stayed in Croatia died in conflict my aunts and uncles hearts still bleed for their lost family.
Croatian here! I recommend paying in kuna (HRK) even though you can pay some things in euros. Paying in kunas is wiser currency value wise :-)
Thank you man for respecting my country☺️❤️🇭🇷
Thank you for exposing our beautiful country to the world. We really do rely heavily on tourism so it’s so nice to see someone appreciate it. Everyone should visit Croatia at least once.
I didnt knew we sound like we r arguing😂 But I can understand why when I think about it lol
I am assuming this video is for those that have no cultural competency, many people are expressive when they talk. Really he had to reassure tourists that this is not arguing? The don'ts is just common sense? Saying something negative about the country in front of Locals? Ummm that would be stupid
Haha my mom and aunt were talking Croatian in a supermarket once, and one man actually asked if they were arguing. They were talking about watermelons.
@@vellabella1 I'm a new Zealander with Croatian heritage. We go there every year to visit our cousins in split. I constantly thought that my cousin and his mum were arguing when they talked. I asked him what they were always fightinf about and he said "no no just having chat we not arguing. I guess talking is different everywhere.
Cantonese and vietnamese are tonal langueges. Now Those 2 are the worst. Simple conversations seem like full blown arguments.
Well we do get loud and pretty much swear all the time
Wow!!! You visit the most amazing places.
Thank you. It was an amazing trip
Wolters World I’d love to know how you began traveling the world and how you can afford to do so so often. I mean, are you independently wealthy? I think you said once that you’re a professor, but even that career doesn’t seem to allow enough time or money for a whole family to afford all that. I’m only curious because I want to do what you’re doing. I’m so jealous. 🤓
JP M Probably sponsership thru social media.
Tekstil Art Wow aren't you a jealous hater, I hope your life gets better so you can be nicer to people, maybe you just need to get laid, good luck with that😉
Tekstil Art I don’t even know how to unpack all that is wrong with your question, but I am not going to sink to your level. I just want you to know that you’re being very hurtful because you are completely uninformed about this wonderful man. I hope to goodness that you don’t continue to act this way again toward someone you don’t know. It’s going to bring the quality of your life way, way down. What goes around comes around. True.
Looks like a beautiful country. I hope I can go there, someday. It is so great to know that they have pride in their country. That is how it is supposed to be, for every one. Mark, I love your vids. My 20-something daughter does too. She passes your vid links to so many of her friends. :)
That's awesome to hear. Thank you and your daughter :)

Europe is full of amazing landscapes, ancient places and especially rich in different cultures.
I'm german and from Bavaria (close to the Alps) and here we still celebrate pre-christian pagan traditions and every single time an american tourist happens to come here during any of these pagan traditions by accident and takes part or watches they always say things like "Oh wow, i had no idea this existed, none of my travel guides and books i read mentioned any of this."
Which is somewhat sad that american but also other travel guides ignore the ancient and deeply cultural events all over Europe. Usually people only come to Bavaria knowing about "Oktoberfest" and "Schloss Neuschwanstein".
The same goes for other areas and not only Bavaria, Germany. There are also pre-christian 1000+ year old festivities and traditions practiced every year in parts of Austria, Slovakia, France, Romania (especially the transylvanian region), Bulgaria etc.
We always are happy when some american tourists end up watching or taking part in these ancient traditions, because nobody advertises it for some reason, they always just end up experiencing it by accident.
I point this out here because i see it more and more often among american media claiming that there is barely anything cultural in Europe nor anything endangered, which is not true.
Recently a french photographer made it his mission to visit most of these pre-christian pagan traditions and festivities and take pictures.
Just google: Charles Fréger - Wilder Mann
Or check on youtube for traditions we have here in Bavaria like "Perchtenlauf" and if you ever come here, make sure to come by and experience it, it doesn't cost anything either and you'll learn a lot about something US and other worldwide media sadly ignores.
In Croatia there are also many things and traditions to see of the same vein that no travel guide seems to talk about sadly. Lots to explore over all.
Grüß di from Bavaria
brabham74 definitely go! I went last summer for 10 days and it was simply amazing!
It's a beautiful country.... for visiting and vacation! ...and then escaping to your more financially secure and more stable state in probably every other way in comparison.
Trust this from local.
Yess.. we have beautiful sea... luckily I live on it, otherwise, if I was inland, then I would be only visited this place newer in my life too.
And probably would live in Ireland too like the rest of my (smarter? unlucky? - don't know time would tell) country fellowmen...
and for the record, it's been called Croatistan, just for better class clarification.
We are proud people! So proud you could not even tell us things in-joke, because, it is our Christian right to be offended if you joke about our shit other nations let go in the past (proud example is WW2 and NDH, but every other topic would do too) So yes.. just be lucky to be in right part of the town and start that conversation... boy you would have so many memories to tell your grandchildren then!!! Probably you would laugh at that incident too, in some 10 years when your memory of that trauma would be clouded.
joss vicitoli 💕
Ive been randomly travelling around Europe for months and my new don’t do is, travel to a country without watching your videos first!!
Thank you for keeping me right man 👍
Thanks for promoting Croatia. Great video! Lijepi pozdrav! ❤
The tipping thing is a lie...you dont have to tip at all.. almost no croatian tips at the restaurant they go to like every few weeks...they would go broke..still appreciate the tips for tourists.....
Nadam se da vam je lijepo u hrv
Still looks gorgeous
It seems to be that he is it talking about Dalmatia only. izgleda da govori samo o Dalmaciji. Hrvatska je više od obale.
@@mikhoozagsar2584 ne...govori o cijeloj obali...Istra, Rijeka, Dalmacija itd...jer prica samo za turiste, a nebi bas reko da ce turisti u sred ljeta ic u Zagorje...
If the bill is like 98kn you leave 100 it's just the norm.
@@banako420 its not the norm. Its what alot of people do. Its not the norm tho.
I visited Croatia years ago - the island of Krk, with a Croatian coworker and some other Brits. A very nice week, amazing weather and beaches - maybe time for another visit soon.
My godmother’s nephew went and got married on a beach in Croatia a couple of years back too. Sounded like a great way to do a wedding: small party, great weather and views.
James Sutherland uuuuh nice I live on Krk! Love it^^
I am Croatian and I love this video. Very accurate. I especially liked that you mentioned small museums. You can find some real gems there.
I think Croatia's World Cup success is only going to increase the amount of tourism there, as many, at least here in the US, know relatively little about the country.
Ed Lawn Americans know relatively little about their own country, not to mention geographic location of any country in the world.
Idk what to sey to this but why do you think that my country ps Croatia has sufferd a lot i even lost my unckle in the last war but Croatia is a beautiful country that will fight agen if we need, Croatia is the olny country that has won every war and we are proud of it so if you think that all we care about is money and tourists your wrong we love our country because it's diffrend and beautiful in it's own way
Ed Lawn last year we broke record of tourists, they expect alot more this year
-1000 subscriberino With no viderino yep a hell lot more
Ed Lawn I've always wondered do any America's actually know for croatia. i have some internet friends for USA, and it took a while to explain where i live,where is croatia hahaha
Don't compare Croats with Serbs.
The problem is, you don't realize that the perspectives you get, and the "facts" you get about the recent history there is incredibly skewed & manipulated via your own government's propaganda, which is obviously being made to try to make Serbia look like a victim and a otherwise grand nation. And the nationalism you & the rest of serbs have prevents you from taking notice of this fact.
It's like most nations. The US manipulates and makes false statements and claims ALL THE TIME about itself in order to get it's own people to think that their government and country is the best of the best, and they never do anything bad or wrong, while pushing that propaganda bs onto other nations they decide their people should hate. And with the gruesome amount of nationalism the average US citizen holds themselves, they of course never question it.
This is always how dictatorships form as well. Throughout history, the Nationalist agendas of each nationalist nation used this nationalism to isolate, self-glorify, and then manipulate information as it came in in order to control the citizen's feelings, opinions & beliefs about history, their country, other countries, other beliefs and other peoples. And with such nationalism, it's pretty much set in stone most of the people within that nationalistic nation will never even think to question almost anything their government and media tells them.
Serbia is a mimic of the US, Turkey & China in a lot of ways, and this is one of them. Nationalist, Self-Righteous Propaganda, and their citizens eat it all up immediately without hesitation, because "of course it's the truth!".
If one was able to find their ways around the controlled and heavily contorted information, perspectives and history they've been fed, they'd finally see a endless heap of information, history and perspectives throughout time that'd immediately contradict everything the person has ever known, since their information and history is so heavily propaganda based lies. I did this here, and I read so much information and history, perspectives, and documentation across the south slavic region, including all sorts of Serbian stuff, and unfortunately, there are only two nations history that simply does not line up with the history prior to the history in focus, which is the last roughly couple hundred years, but especially the last 125 or so years there. Those two nations? Serbia, and Albania.
Everyone elses lines up with prior history, it all makes perfect sense, it all perfectly correlates with each other. And, they each correlate and match up with each other's. The only two that do not yet again is Serbian and Albanian. Serbia is probably the most different one by a long shot too. Not even Italy, nor Romania, Hungary, nor Austria last I checked matched a single bit of Serbian information and history. It's so far out there. And it's all making itself look like it was the only victim from all the things everywhere else notes your country did to the others, namely Croatia and Bosnia.
Now Croatia did indeed begin a vicious assault during the "last" war in the 90s against Serbia, but as a defensive retaliation against Serbia attempting to launch genocide of Croats in Croatia. Serbia attempted this once they got the world's attention on their genocide of Bosnians. It was a reactive defense they launched on Serbia at the time in a rushed panic, to attempt to prevent Serbia from committing that genocide of the Croatian people within their own country. They saw what Serbia was doing to the Bosnians, and knew that Serbia was attempting to do the very same to them, and they were already late in realizing that Serbia was already well on it's way to beginning that genocide of Croats. Like a heavily abused dog trapped in a corner, they when into a panicked defense mode. The quickly after the war ended admitted that that specific action was wrong, but they know that there isn't much else one could've expected them to do in such a panicked rush to save their own country and people from the Serbian invasion.
But that is the only horrible thing the Croatians did to Serbia, let alone to anyone else. It was in a panicked defense. And they own up to the fact it wasn't a acceptable response. Serbia? Serbia still pretends they never even committed the genocide of the Bosnians. The entire world was watching the Serbians do it live, and it was then passed onto us later generations. To pretend like something the entire world saw & witnessed did happen is arguably the most incredibly immature and arrogant thing Serbia could possibly do. Yet here they are, still demanding it never happened to this very day. What they did to the Bosnians was what they wanted to do to the Croats, which caused the Croats to react defensively once they found this out. They, like any other country were NOT going to just lay back and allow it to happen as the Bosnians did. The Bosnians didn't do anything about it at all until VERY late, when the UN FORCED them into military action again Serbia and their mass genocide of Bosnians. Bosnia did NOT want another war. They didn't want any war. Yet they ended up being forced into the war very late by the UN. the Croats saw what Serbia was doing to Bosnia and would not accept sitting idly by and let it happen like the Bosnians did. It's as simple as that, oddly enough.
So the claims that Croatia is evil, was a Nazi puppet, etc is plain false, and is well-known Serbian propaganda, which they demand to continue to churn out every single day to the world and continue to pretend it is all actual facts, when it couldn't be further from the truth.
the hard reality is, Serbia was the nation Serbia claims Croatia was.
And sadly, proving governments control and manipulated what "facts" and "history" you see, the US recently switched out all info and "history" on the south slavic region for Serbian made propaganda, which is known as self-righteous lies.
Originally, one could actually easily find and study ALL south slavic countries perspectives, information, history and facts about it all. That's how I was able to read and study it all. Thus also how I know it was very recent. It was only a few months ago it was still without any biased info and history. no doubt this is definitely a predictable Donald Trump move, since he has always long adored authoritarian leaders and countries who perpetually churn out their own self-righteous lies we all call propaganda.
I visited Croatia 2 years ago. There was some game they had vs Serbia which they lost. The whole place started yelling something, i didnt understand since i dont speak their language, im Greek. I asked my friend who is Croatian she said it means Hang the Serbs. Since then i never will go there because i saw so much hate in the population that its hard to describe. Also i am very familar with WW2 history and its general knowledge that Croatians did do mass exterminations of Jews, Gypsies, Serbs and Bosnians during WW2 In general, we Greeks also avoid Croatia since its well known how they hate all orthodox nations. Its just sad that some people try to defend their crimes like you do.
I have no mana have nothing Bullshit . I was also in Greece 2 years ago and they were also shouting to kill croatians , turks and albanians ... Terrible nation
Before 1990 Serbs mostly go to Croatia for holiday..now mostly go to Greece
Serbia sucks gay mans asshole, simple as that...
Definitely on my bucket list.

Croatia Sarar Druze nemam para da izadem u grad a o moru ni ne razmisljam.
to nije dobro :( i ovdje je sve skupo na moru
Croatia Sarar Došo sam sa godinu dana odmora na moru :D idem u vojsku jer nema posla osim bauštela
je skupo je jako i sve skuplje svake godine Pogotovo negdje u Dalmacije Imam srecu jer zivim blizu Pa trosak benzina ili badava A sve ostalo je ludnica
Croatia Sarar Nekad nije, nekoliko puta u Rovanskoj je jake hladno.
I'm from Croatia and i really love my country my advice is to go to islands, Pula, Split, Šibenik, Zadar and Dubrovnik. Also if u want to go somewhere in the middle maybe visit the capital city Zagreb and visit Slavonija. I think every part of Croatia is special and different. Also you can visit Plitvička jezera and Slapovi Krke🌎❤
Ili nek sam dođe kod mene 😂
Dodaj još i možda Stubičke Toplice. Malo poslije Zagreba (preko Medvednice) a super je tu.
Zagreb je ruzan

Nisam iz Balkana kolko ti je godina?
3:06 A lot of times they sell water shoes at the beaches. And i really recommend getting/bringing them because walking on stone beaches feels like walking on Legos 😂
And not those comfortable legos either :)
xChrisS41x Uh Legos are the worst
If you truly give in to the stones, your feet will learn to tolerate the stones
Ouuuch!! ...water shoes are the best...thanks, Mark! 🐶
Lol- You can always tell the tourists from the locals by those shoes. I'm Croatian so I don't even feel the pain. But yeah, almost all tourists wear them
You hit it on the nail! A few years ago , I went to Croatia with a friend who's father was from there . We ended up having a local drive us from Zadar into the town of Nin where his dad lived . The local needed to ask for directions to find the precise street..... so the local stopped to ask another local for directions, and to me it sounded like they were arguing and wanted to kill eachother ! But it turned out they were just conversing normally... fun times ! I would love to go back
I used to have Chinese neighbors and they conversed the same way. They'd be in the back yard working the garden, but sounding like ready to kill each other. lol
Travels & Chases lol
Tiki Taka Tiki Taka lmao
Hahaha
Travels & Chases actually we yell most of the times and people think we hate eachother, but we are so calm and friendly ksks
I’m Hispanic, from Miami. I’m used to people speaking like they’re in heated arguments. 😂
maddie2781 who Croatia and Serbia?
Ella B it’s not just Croatia and Serbia.. Bosnia does it too.
Well, the more you go south in Europe the more peoeple yell when they talk! 😄 Still, we don't yell as much as Italians.😂
Especially , the people from the Caribbean (Cuba, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico ( this a US territory ) They talk loud. Like they were on a market. Living in Miami for many years, you are used to it.
Margui622 😂🤣😂🤣
I love your travel videos. You're so friendly, polite and positive - which is much needed in these times. Thank you!
Good luck Croatia in the final game tomorrow!
Thanx, I hope we win!
Pero Juric bitch what
Yes maybe we win this time:)
THE GAME WAS ON THE 15TH OF JULY WTF PEOPLE
Uni ...we know ,just kidding mate
I love that I live in Bosnia and Herzegovina,B and H is a pretty mountaines country so I do a lot of mountaneiring and skiing but then when summer comes I go to the sea in croatia,croatia has the most beautifull coastline and I find that Bosnia is the oposite because it has the most beautiful mountains and hills.When people come to my country they go to Sarajevo and Mostar but I tell them go to the mountains

We were standing in the main square in Split when we saw this video being posted! Love Croatia. also love your videos
lucky one! split was awesome.
Thanks for nice review! It is nice to hear that from someone who is not Croatian. You nailed it!
What a perfect timing with this video, family and I are looking to go! Having Vicenza as the home base works perfect for all these trips!
you could look into the boat/ferry from Venice to Pula or Rovinj for a weekend trip. we did that a few years ago and it was easy and nice
Awesome video, and as Croatian guy, I can agree with everything. Glad that you like Croatia. Greetings!
Croatia is absolutely beautiful. We sailed from Monfalcone to Pula with several port calls along the way, and it was the best vacation I've ever had. If you've ever thought about visiting, do it, you won't be disappointed.
It is beautiful, but beauty isn't everything. The place gets overrun by over 20 MILLION tourists (mostly Germans) during the summer season. You can't even get a room for less than $300 if they're available at all. And the food is not good. It's super overpriced, over hyped and rarely tasty at all.
For those who are watching this now, we pay in Euros and not all these things aresame in all cities, like in Neretva beaches are sandy but in Dubrovnik very rocky, Croatiand rarely wear water shoes but tourists wear them becuase rocky beaches are new to them
The restaurant tip is a lie. In Croatia, service and tip is already included in price by default (most of the time that fact is stated on the price list). Nobody will refuse the tip (I myself prefer to tip if I'm *really* satisfied with the service), but you are not obliged to tip.
Not really the tip isnt included...if you want to tip you do but the tip isnt default at all
Tip is never included in the bill in Croatia, that is how they do things in Italy.
Yes tip is never included. I always tip, I am from Croatia.
I discovered how beautiful Croatia is a few weeks ago .. and now you post this vid ( perfect timing )
It's amazing there
Yeah ! I'm going to Romania next Tuesday. To be honest i'd rather go to Croatia or Serbia
The first don't of Croatia: NEVER play 90 min football matches
Croatia is beautiful and I love it. Every single inch of the land is spectacular. Whenever I go there I regret not staying longer, actually wishing to stay there forever. Greetings from Novi Sad.
It is amazing. We may be back next summer with friends for a longer stay
@@woltersworld I'm so happy to hear that. I love the fact that people are starting to see the beauty of this part of the World. I hope you will have a wonderful stay there if you decide to go back to Croatia.
