Holiday in Croatia

  • Published: 13/08/2009

For most of the people holidays change only a few days of their lives. To me, a holiday meant a complete change of life. I work as a freelance web developer, which means that I can work from every place which has an Internet connection. This possibility has always been a great thing for me because I could go where ever I wanted and anytime I wanted, it really gave me a lot of freedom. This was also a thing that made it possible form me to totally change my life because of one holiday.Two years ago I decided to spend my holiday in Croatia, a beautiful country which I had heard so much about. I stayed at my friends' apartment because they had rented some apartments in Croatia for a few months. So, the first cool thing was that I didn't have to look for accommodation in Croatia - I really hate searching for a place to stay, so this was a plus in  the start.My friends had told me about the country even before I arrived, so I already knew some basic information about the country. I guess you know this things usually end, someone tells you something about some place and it either turns out worse or so much better than described - I was hopping for the second because the landscape, which I had heard so much about, seemed to be so unrealistic: I was told that a big part of the country is covered with vast forest which give terrific smell to the air, especially when mixed with the smell of sea. Another thing that sounded so unrealistic were descriptions of town: they had told me that seaside towns are mostly made of grain; I mean, who would be so stupid to pull giant blocks of grain to form houses? What is this, Egypt? It soon appeared that I was so wrong. My stupidity made me some embarrassed: how didn't I think that those weren't giant block, but rather the small ones?I think there is really no need for me to describe every single minute of my holiday in Croatia because it consisted of walking and running in the forest or by the sea, playing with my friends or working (yes, I did some work because I found the atmosphere so relaxing that working there was a joy). I would rather talk about how this had changed my life. This country turned out to be so great that I moved there; I really had no reason not to because my work allowed me to do programming from just about anywhere. Now I can enjoy calm and peaceful life in Croatia. If you're looking for some accommodation in Croatia , I would recommend apartments in Croatia - they might change you life as well.
