Coffee time!

Unbelievable. It's a middle of the day and practically every cafeteria in Dubrovnik is full of people! I have to admit, that at the beginning of my adventure  in Croatia, it suprised me. I was wondering  how is it possible, especially that they meet during work hours. Why they spend a lot of time in coffee stores?

In my country this kind of life is not popular. To be honest, during the week is really hard to find some time for meeting with friends. Coffee? Small one in the morning, and during the break for a lunch. That's a pity!

Final result

We took an example from Croats, and have started to meet with erasmus group for a coffee. That's true, that here we don't have a job, we have more free time, so It wasn't so hard. How is the result? We love it! It's a very simply thing, but it makes us so happy. Moreover, thanks to these meetings, our relationship is much better. During our coffee times we have planned many trips around Balkans, we shared our experience and have discussed many useful european educational programs.

Part of culture

I think that coffee time is a part of croatian culture and in whole Balkans as well. I've travelled a lot through former Yougoslavia countries and in each of them was the same thing - crowded cafeterias. And something which makes atmosphere, namely - cigarrete smoke!  This thing definitely connects those people. I'm sure that after my homecoming I will start to introduce coffee time with my friends during the day.
