I live and was born in Croatia, I work in a metal processing factory in Croatia near Zagreb on a CNC machine, and I have a monthly salary of around 5000 HRK, if I work overtime then it's a little more ... it's 780 USD, 660 €, we have the lowest wages in the European Union ... so now count how we live. The cost of an apartment with utilities in Zagreb is very expensive, but let's say in Karlovac where I live, which is a small town, the prices of renting an apartment with utilities range up to 2000 HRK ($ 300) and more, but it's all without internet, mobile phones, and no food ... and a liter of fuel, let's say petrol, is now 11 HRK ($ 1.74). In the end, you have very little left to save ... and if you plan to take out a loan, you have nothing left, zero ... then you won't have anything for the annual car registration if you have one. This is how more than 70% of people live, and it is the only real and realistic picture of life in Croatia. Croatian commercial beers are terrible, we don't drink them anymore because they are garbage ... and many of my friends think so .... that's why we drink German, Czech and Belgian beers ... and if Croatian beers are good for you, then I'm afraid to think what you drink in America.

If you live in a big city in the USA (expensive) and have a job in a factory in might be the same. It also depends where you live. I would say it’s easier to get jobs so perhaps regarding saving money - some people work two jobs or three. Having spend time in Croatia I say yes there’s is less cash flow there for people but they spend a lot of time socializing - a plus. Also you don’t have crime which believe me is a problem in other countries Even in Europe. Money might be appealing but there us a price to pay even for your children.

Thank you Anita for this post about the land of my ancestors. For me, as the heir to Croatian military border guards, it is always interesting how other people see and experience my country, my people. What do we call looking at or staring at? We Croats (unlike many other peoples) look every human being in the eye. This out of pure curiosity, out of interest in the other human being. Not out of rejection. And if this beautiful woman met me on the street, I would certainly look at her. Not because I reject her, because I'm a racist. No, for the very simple reason that she is a beguilingly beautiful woman. But obviously someone else has already noticed this, otherwise she would not have this beautiful name Damjanic.

In SFRY we had many brown students from non aligned countries, and we all (ex -YU coutries) find rascism awful. But as a man, I think that guy in a bar found you very pretty and wanted to accomodate for that reason too. And that is why he felt ashamed when he conected the dots that you were with your friend to whom he said he can't do nothing for him. :)

Exactly...We have for example a wage of 500€ and the rent is 300€, bills like electricity, water etc. Is another 200€, and then you have to go to debt bcs you need to eat too. It would be great to have a wage like someone in Italy,Germany and have prices like here. But it's not like that. We are not racists..But there are people who care about nationality but I believe it is a minority of people.

Good evening Anita, you are doing a good job. I actually applied for a work permit visa to Croatia through VFS Abuja and it taking too long to hear from them. I know there is no Nigeria embassy in Croatia, So I would like to ask, which Nigeria embassy in Europe does Nigerians in Croatia use as their home office? Is it Nigerian embassy London or Nigeria embassy Budapest?

What about your husband’s view point about where to settle down. I suppose your arguments for wanting to live in Nigeria apply for him in Croatia. Will he not miss his family , friends, community and people who look like him too if he settled in Nigeria.

These plans are agreed on, he has refused to live permanently in Croatia since for the most part of his life he has spent it out of the country. It turns out that there aren't that many opportunities either in Croatia as there are in Nigeria. So there you have it.

On braiding hair and African / Black hairstyles.... there is not a lot of demand for that particular talent in Croatia - a small country with less than 4 million people. So that means that I am sure not many stylists will work on that specific talent. It is just part of the environment,
@Anitadamjanic13 күн бұрын
No that wasn’t my point. My point is the African hair stylists are most times hesitant to braid African hair but have no reservation braiding European hair
