Did you ever wonder…What makes a person Croatian?

What makes us different from the world?

Your Grandma and Grandpahave a shot of Rakija for breakfast!

Or even worse: Rachhiato…cheers!

Your dad insists that you pick the branch yourselfand then he would beat the HELL out of you!

“You’re NOBODY if you don’t graduate from faculty!”– your Croatian parents

Your mother washes the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher.

If your grandma lives with you, you don’t need a dishwasher…

You live with your parents until you are married.

“You’re having a flu? That’s because you’re not eating enough!”- your Croatian mom

Grandma and Grandpa are wearing at least 3 layers of clothing in ALL

SEASONS!

At least one person in your Croatian family is making some kind of alcohol (mostly Rakija & Wine)!

You are only allowed to vacation in the homeland…which is not actually bad!
