**Dobrodošli na 21. kulturološku razmjenu na** [r/croatia](https://www.reddit.com/r/croatia/)**!** Nakon nekoliko godina stanke, ponovno nam dolaze susjedi Talijani! *Republika Italija* je južnoeuropska zemlja okružena morem s tri strane koja je značajno utjecala na Hrvatsku još od dolaska Hrvata na ove prostore. Danas su Talijani značajna nacionalna manjina u Hrvatskoj i česti turisti na našoj obali.

  2. Hello! I’ve never been to Croatia but I’ve always heard it’s a must-see country, especially on the coast.

    Can you tell me what are your favourite traditional dishes? And maybe some beautiful places that are underrated/not as well-known as they should be by tourists? Also your favourite insult in Croatian?

  5. Dobar dan!

    I’m planning to visit this or next summer Rovinj with my girlfriend, is it true that it is become very touristic or is it still possible to find places to eat and visit which are not too crowded and tourist-centrical?

    Thank you 😀

  6. I’ve been in Tisno (small village close to Sibenik) so many times, but I never understand why Croatians are so unpleasant, they’re so exclusive and rude, they even look you badly like in teenagers years… is it typical to all Croatia or just the small places?

  7. I’ve been for the first time to your country last year for the summer with my girlfriend. I have just to say that we really enjoyed eating Burek at Plodine’s Supermarket 🤤

    I just want to know: “What do you think about your country getting the euro as a unique currency?” Because it reminds me of when back in 2002 Italy adopted it too, and today most of the country (maybe) regrets it.

  11. i’ve been 3 days in august 2019 in spalato with my motorcycle.
    and guys. i’ve fell in love.
    figurativelly and literally.
    croatia will always be in my heart, hope to be there again soon 🙂

  13. Is the relationship with your Orthodox neighbours to the East something that it’s talked about nowadays, or it’s best avoided altogether?

  14. I was on holiday in Novigrad and Pula (Premantura).
    What is the best place to spend two weeks for a family of four in Istria/Quarnaro (Krk, Cres, Losinj)?

  15. First of all, Croatia’s one of the most stunning countries I’ve been to.
    What are your general thoughts on tourism in your cities? Have they preserved their character? I know some shallow people that have been there for the touristy, cheap party islands and came back without having interacted with anyone outside of their hostels

  16. Hi guys! Last week I took a flight from the south of Italy to milan, flying over italian east coast. Since it was early morning before sunrise, I was very surprised when I spotted your coastal city lights! I’ve never thought how close you are to us! Also, do you know that from Mount Majella it’s possible to see St. Andrea Isle simply by naked eye? Doviđenja!

  17. Hello neighbours, during the pandemic I got into a rabbit hole about croatian history, mainly on Wikipedia.

    Can you recommend me some books on croatian history from ancient times to the1800s ? (It would be ideal if you know they are translated to English and/or italian :D)

    Poljica republic is one of the parts that fascinates me the most 🙂

  19. What do you think about the bridge to connect Dubrovnik to the mainland, bypassing Bosnia?

    Great economic opportunity or squandering of taxpayers’ money?

    In Italy the gov is again talking about a bridge to connect Sicily to the continent (last time the project was made by Berlusconi’s government).

  21. Can someone from our dear neighbours point to youtube or even better share a recipe to your best pasta with red souce recipe.

  22. How do you feel about having adopted the euro?

    Here in Italy most reactionary and euroskepic parties favoured a return to the Lira.

  23. Can you recommend me some Italian TV show, that is not longer than half an hour by an episode, so I could practice Italian? I tried watching Inspector Montalbano but would like to try something else, maybe something funny?
