CROATIANS AND THEIR CUSTOMS

Croatians are known for their strong coffee drinking culture, their socializing culture and are considered laid back. They might not be so open in the beginning but once they get to know you they are open and friendly.

Drying cloths outdoors at the fresh air is typical Mediterranean habbit. Fresh and slightly salted air gives to a cloths very special smell. Coastal people use this method all year long because winter isn't that cold and rarely snowing.

CLIMATE IN CROATIA The Croatian climate is generally mild, with Mediterranean climate in the coastal region and mild continental climate in the northeast parts of the country. Zagreb has four seasons and is described to have continental climate.

Overall the weather is quite nice, especially since there is a good distribution of the type of whether as there are no extreme changes.

FOOD IN CROATIA

The Local cuisine is influenced by many surrounding cultures from Italian (especially around the coast), German, French cuisine (continental Croatia) to Hungarian. There are also some traces of Turkish or Greek influences, particularly in the fast foods and deserts.

Dubrovnik has no McDonald, and there isn’t any Sturbucks shop in Croatia.

The tap water in Croatia is drinkable, and of very high quality. The water contains a high mineral content, important to know when you use a dishwasher or an iron.
