How Safe Is Croatia?

[@maslina4567]

Our first several visits to Croatia we were stunned to see kids playing by themselves, no adults in sight. VERY different from Canada. The mentality is worlds apart. As a woman I always feel safe walking at night or any time in the countryside or in towns in Croatia. I've visited many countries in Europe and unequivocally feel safest here (though there are other safe countries). I once forgot my purse on a konoba table and had staff return it to me. My biggest complaint is smoking. Ugh.

[@Dusan.Grujic]

I imagine that many years ago Canada was like this but things changed for the worst in these English countries. My fondest memories were when i went to go see my family in the balkans. all family together playing outside. Non of that in the UK no more

[@maslina4567]

@Dusan.Grujic Yes, you're right. My mom says the 1950s were safe and free in Canada. Sure, she was a kid then, but we all reflect on previous times. Family times in the Balkans must have been the best! Retrospectively eye opening, too. People here know how to care for, respect and celebrate family!

The smoking is pretty bad, no escape from it, otherwise it's so beautiful there.

[@maslina4567]

@@zannawu5749 Yes! The beauty here amazes me every single day. Such variety, too. It never gets old.

[@mikistjep]

@@zannawu5749 I know smoking is bad for ones health., but i have to say- westerners will gloss over so many scarry and terrible things and put smoking as the gratest sin that one can commit. I heard this many times, and it just makes me want to smoke harder :)

I kept saying Ocean, i think the fresh air got to my head ;)

totally agree with your talk by the Sea today. Look forward to spending our summers visiting the whole of Croatia. Spent 5 weeks this past summer in Pula, Vir, Zadar and Zagreb. My wife and I were there to visit my daughters boyfriends family( getting serious enough to meet them). I was amazed how safe we felt walking most everywhere no matter the hour. Didn't matter if we were on the Island of Vir or downtown Zagreb. Look forward to visiting the Slavonia region of Croatia this coming summer. Love your prospective on the differences between UK/USA and Croatia. Understanding that the differences are just that, differences and neither are better.

[@Dusan.Grujic]

Thats awesome, Enjoy the trip! I hope to do more travelling around different parts of Cro aswell at some point.

[@tour80]

Really nice! I'll be on vacation in Fazana/Rijeka/Zagreb this summer and planning to move there in the next few years. My daughter would love having that freedom and being closer to more family.

[@Dusan.Grujic]

Enjoy your holidays

Hey Dušan i love your videos! id love to hear your opinions on the language in croatia and what your experience is with learning/understanding with your family!

[@Dusan.Grujic]

Ok sure!

[@damonmelendez856]

4:02 hit the nail on the head with showing emotions. Many places in the ‘West’ where the people are like artificial drones, unemotional & bland with no personality at all.

My brother is over there at the mo you should meet him for a coffee he's a born n bred failsworth croat cool as and has an off grid 'ranch' near Vrana.

[@Dusan.Grujic]

I've been there but always seems quiet. not noticed any Rastas?! Yes I avoid the sea there for sure in the summer, but cafe bars are still a go to. sounds cool, would love to check out the ranch!

[@stevefrompolaca2403]

I'll call him to see if its cool to pass his number on, the ranch is two farts and a jump on the way from Pako to Vrana if you wish@@Dusan.Grujic

[@shadowleon659]

I heard that Croatia is in the Top Twenty Safest Countries on Earth.

[@Dusan.Grujic]

I would believe it

[@davidstosich9118]

Great Video Dusan! I imagine the countryside is far safer than the cities. We would love to live just outside a smaller city. Keep up the good work.

[@Dusan.Grujic]

you cant go wrong with a smaller city like Zadar!

[@mikistjep]

Crime rate is very low in he cities.

[@viki_ri2752]

Scariest thing in Cro is Propuh 😄 Be careful please

[@Dusan.Grujic]

What is that? what am i missing haha

[@viki_ri2752]

@@Dusan.Grujic haha "It's a draft of air usually created by opening doors on opposite sides of the house or windows or similar. It can also occur in cars when you roll down the opposing windows. For unknown reason, especially older generations in Croatia seem to believe that propuh is a cause for many diseases and that it can actually kill you". 💀

Tourists should beware of thieves on the beaches because they come here in the summer from other countries just to steal.
