Croatia is starting to show it's best. In every way. I have enjoyed my last month working with the Outward Bound team, saw really beautiful places here and met amazing people.
Some way Croatian people are similar to Finnish, when sun comes behind the clouds and starts warming the grounds, people also change. They become more friendly, more active and lively than during that cold and dark winter time.
But know, let's get to business and the thing that has made a huge influence on me past days. I went to Split for a training for volunteers in Croatia. So of course while being there in the South, I had to do some tourist stuff and travel and see places.
First of all, Split was more dirty than I expected. I think when summer season starts in few weeks, the whole city will look totally different after all the cleaning. :)
But it is still a really nice city with the sea and really good food, so I was enjoyning myself. After Split we took a ferry to an island called Brač cause we wanted to see that famous island. And it was definetely worth visiting. The whole beach was completely empty. (no wonder since the weather was freaking cold!!) But the view was still amazing.
This is still not the thing that made a huge influence on me. It's is the following. At this point I can tell you that when we arrived to the place, I had tears in my eyes. It was very precious moment, since I think that I have never seen anything so beautiful before. The place that I'm talking about is of course one of the natural parks, Krka. The waterfalls are so amazing that I don't even have words to describe it. Amazing. Truly. Like usual, I'll let pictures to speak for me. And my dear friend Pena the reindeer.
Cheers,
Elina
