DID YOU KNOW ?
- The Dubrovnik Gargoyle.
By the entrance to the
Franciscan Monastery, one
person breaks off from the
steady pedestrian traffic to
balance precariously on a stone
protruding from the wall. Carved
in the likeness of an owl, it is
said that anyone who hops onto
the gargoyle will be lucky in love.
- Swearing. A lot of Croatians
swear, and that includes sweet
elderly ladies (say she forgot to
buy something at the store - it
would be normal for her to say
a few curse words out loud, and
then move on about her day).
- Usually at least one meal
throughout the week is a stew,
or something of that nature
which is “eaten with a spoon,”
as they believe this is good for
their digestive tracts.
- They almost all use toothpicks
after a meaty meal. Everyone
from teenagers to newlyweds
on their honeymoon, to the 80+
crowd, they all use them!
- Sore throat? Drink it, it will kill the
bacteria.
- They love Vegeta and put it in
everything (it’s a veggie-based
seasoning for soups, chicken,
vegetables, potatoes). If you
don’t cook with Vegeta, you
can’t call yourself a Croatian!
- Putting your purse on the
ground means you won’t have
any money
