| Description: | I am an American who has lived in Croatia since 2006. In general, I enjoy living in Zadar, Croatia. Good weather. Beautiful environment. As a foreigner, though, my perspective on things is often a little different than the status quo. This blog describes Zadar & Croatia as I see it - the good, the bad, and the ugly. |

Zadar, Lebanon
It's that time of year again...From mid-November through New Year's, Zadar sounds like bombed-out Beirut. Under the rubric of Anything-to-Appease-the-Kiddies, parents buy an arsenal of firecrackers which are set off day and night by their kids. Walking to school? ...why don't you pass the time setting off firecrackers...After lunch...what else is there to do but light firecrackers...Do you hate the neighbor's dog? Shoot a firecracker at it and laugh like a maniac when the animal goes running...This also marks the time when my husband wears out the speed dial for the Police. Disptacher: Hello?Husband: Yes, I'm

The Summer is Over...
It's rainy, cloudy...cold. We actually installed air conditioning like 3 weeks ago - yes, at the END of the summer (we were stupidly resistent to air-conditioning - I have no idea why, now - not that we're using it much these days). A friend of ours from Montreal visted earlier this week. Travelling alone. She's never been to Croatia before. Man, it would really suck to be traveling alone while the rain is pouring. But what a great attitude she has! She's a real renaissance woman - travels all over the place. Speaks 5 languages. Knits, sews...makes soap...builds things with wood - and I'm not talking about bird houses - the woman actually makes structures, like gazebo
