The People of Croatia

The people of Croatia were nice when I would come upon them when I was walking. Croats are mostly Roman Catholics, too. Most people do speak a little English so I can communicate. It's easy to make friends, and the place it was a bit more difficult to communicate was the local grocery store.

I talk to people sometimes when I take my daily walk. I found that most people are out and about around 6:00pm, or 18:00. A lot of kids hang out around then. A large amount of kids use roller blades, bicycles, skateboards, and scooters as transportation.

Having fun on the beach means paying a visit to those who sit in the cafes. There are of course the people on the beach. However, it isn't that warm yet so there isn't a particularity large amount of people on the beach yet.

Split: Making Friends

When I got to Croatia, I found it was fairly easy to make friends. Kids played in the basketball court, and walked around a lot. It was easy to just come across somebody and say hi.


In fact, I went down on a Saturday afternoon to the beach. I then learned that there was a really cool setup down there. If you payed a bit of money, you could go jumping on trampolines.

I jumped around for almost an hour, and for such a small cost, it was really fun. I met a friend there, and talked a bit. Even when I wasn't down by the trampolines, I 'm able to say hi to kids, and talk with them.


Overall, in my experience, making friends in Split is a calm, simple process.  I hope to be able to meet many more people,and have a lot more fun.
