Croatia is a small, but diverse European country. From that golden plains with wheat and cornfields, wild rivers and their floodplains, to the wild mountains with wolves and bears, to the beautiful Adriatic coast, Croatia has much to offer. I was lucky to live in Croatia during the covid-17 lockdown, with plenty of opportunities to explore this European gem.
