    I have been lucky enough to spend 3 months in continental Croatia, during winter. I'm surprised that so many go for the coast when in land their is so much beauty and history. Some of the most amazing and most kind people I have ever ha the pleasure to meet. Was welcomed into strangers homes, fed and drank a lot of alcohol, partied with people I did not know, just because I was a foreigner
    Loved it and promised I will be back, will bring my snow ski's wit me this time.

      And I feel a lot of jealousy coming from you and in this case many other serbs I have come across. I dont blame you for trying to take Croatia, it is an extraordinarily beautiful place. I guess the income Croatia would have produced for jugoslavia would have been a great loss to the Belgrade coffers

    • @powderskier5547
      @powderskier5547 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I dont think the Croats ever had a problem with serbs living in Croatia. I guess it's something you, as serbs, should take up with your leader slobodan milosevic, whom, you all as a peoples placed your trust in him and thought you could create a greater serbia. I mean, really, how much land do you serbs actually claim? If you claim what you claim is serbian, then how big would Croatia be today? The size of a Pea.
      So gathering we listen to the serbs and crucify the Croats, what do we do to the Germans, Austrians and Japanese then?

      Powder Skier You have mentioned in your previous post about serb dominated yugoslav army? I will need time, but I can find you list of generals and you will see it wasnt dominated by Serbs, more likely by Croats as well as Yugoslavia that was dominated by Croats and Slovenians. Even first man of Yugoslavia was Croat-Slovene Tito.

      @powderskier5547 6 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      When you get groups of men in dirty civilian clothing and long beards running around killing civilians they are called terrorists.
      By the way, if the Croats were that bad, how come there were so many of you serbs living in their country after the 2nd wold war?
      Besides, I think you serbs should be grateful to the Croats, it was their King who allowed you serbs to come into their lands to save you from the Turks. You need to understand, just because you live in a foreign country does not mean it is yours.
      Also, I think you serbs should start making peace with all your neighbours, I believe you have issues with every neighbouring country, thats not a good thing

    Dear Mark,
    Thank you for making such a beautiful video about Croatia. We are truly a proud and vibrant people, and I could not help but to tear up a bit while watching this video. To hear tourists say how beautiful our country is, justifies our long struggle to be independent. If you ever have any questions about some secret places in Croatia, please do not hesitate to ask me. There is also a lot to see in the eastern and northern regions of Croatia.
    You are awesome and I would love to get in touch with you :)
    all the best

    11-th thing that shock me is how tourists think Croatia is all about coast, Dubrovnik, Šibenik, Split, Istra, and forget that there is continental part of Croatia which is, for me at least, more beautiful than coast. Forests, old culture, mountains, cities like Zagreb, Varaždin, Osijek...so Wolter, next time when you come to Croatia, try to visit continental parts as well

    You make me want to go to Croatia again :D I've been there twice. First on a yacht trip, starting from Zadar and sailing beetween entrancing views of islands and see and oh my the sky (I was lucky to go on beginning of august and see the meteors). I've also been to Plitvička jezera but so many people visit that beautiful place. And second time I've been to Maly Iz ("Small Iż). An absolutely charming little island of maybe 300 people living there. Not so many turists and all goods of Croatian island - water, beaches, nature, people and weather. It is very close to Veli Iz (Great Iż) wich is more visited by tourists but has shops, post office and so on. I usually hate the heat and can't stand more than 25C but I did handle 38C thanks to the sea weather. It is a beautiful country :) I hope to explore more of it into the land.

Dalmatia is one of the four historical regions of Croatia, alongside Croatia proper, Slavonia and Istria. Šibenik is the oldest native Croatian town on the shores of the sea.

Yet, you can still see buildings with bulletholes and and even bombed ones which is quite sobering about the fact that actual battles were happening in the city. Since Hungary (that's the country where I am) has been threatened by Yugoslavia because we were helping the Croatians since Croatia has gained its indepence, the people were scared about a war.

    One thing that really irks me about tourist videos about Croatia is that I feel that they focus too much on the coastal areas. I would like to see more tourists come to the continental regions of Croatia and advertise them to others. After all, coastal regions make only about a third of the population of the country and the difference in mentality between the coastal an continental regions is quite staggering. As a person who has a mostly continental upbringing, at times, I feel as if I can better relate to people from Slovenia or Hungary than some people from Dalmatia, although I must admit that I rarely go there.
    I live in Zagreb so I see a lot of tourists whenever I go downtown, but when I go to some of the cities in the eastern parts of Croatia, like Osijek, for example, I feel that even I as a domestic tourist stand out.
    One "tripster" place that doesn't get many visitors that I'd recomend people visit, simply due to my childhood memories, is the city of Karlovac, where, all around the town, you can see the damage from the war in the 1990s. Many blocks of flats and the historical center of the city are full of bulletholes and mortarholes. The park around the old city is quite enjoyable for walking. There is a city museum as well, of course.

Gde ce oni da se usude da istraze zemlju pre nego sto odu tamo... Ovako samo kupe aranzman u nekom mestu o kom su culi u medijima i idu tamo, da im drugde slucajno ne pojedu decu za dorucak. Sem toga, porez koji jug placa papi je sigurno bar malo veci od onog sa severa, pa i zavredjuje bolji publicitet.

I remember how we always got it out of sight/ slapped it off the dash when going throug border control for example :D Someone was always like: oh shit hide the the goddamn yugo map!!

      Tough luck :-)
      Usually it is very hot in summer, but some years have been rainy and relatively cold. Also there are occasional summer storms that may appear suddenly from seemingly calm weather, which is inconvenient if you are at the shore, but can be downright dangerous if you are sailing in the Adriatic, not paying attention to the weather. In short - bring your summer clothing, sun screen and all, but also a raincoat and some warm clothes, just in case...

And the reason why Croatia isnt that expensive is that we couldnt afford anything if it wasnt. The money you get paid isnt a lot for many people so some cant even afford a nice vacation. I still love my country and i hope many will still visit!

    Hi! I live in Croatia and I'm very proud of it :) Thank you for all your kind words. I really liked your video and I'm glad that you've enjoyed your stay here. I would just like to tell you do not be afraid of the sea urchins. We are more than glad to have them (and we welcome them) 'cause, don't you know - they are one of the best signs for a clean water :D

    Croatia's beauty doesn't lay just on the coast area - trust me, further into the land it's gorgeous, too. It's truly an amazing country, beautiful all over, and that's one of the reasons I adore the fact that I live here.

    Amazing what living in the same empire will do to architecture! I've never been to Budapest or anywhere else in Hungary but I imagine it looks just like Zagreb, only bigger. Especially since we have been in the same same kingdom for almost a millennia and have had the exact same influences throughout history up-to and including communist regimes and socialist simplistic architecture. Dalamtia, of course was under more Venetian influences than any other for a good amount of years.
    I've been all over Austria (including Vienna) and similarities with Zagreb are unparalleled. If you've seen only Vienna/Budapest/Prague/Bratislava/Ljubljana (probably)/Zagreb you have seen them all.

      He just explained that the Adriatic region is tourist-friendly as opposed to the rest of this area in Europe. He is condescending, offensive and ignorant and he only visits the top tourist destinations, so it is not an authentic delivery, meaning that he doesn't want to explore aspects that he would find appealing in those countries after studying them. Now I think it is like he travels to feel good about himself.
