Favorite thing: The area around Osijek is very flat, it's in the midst of the Panonian plain. Thus you'll find lots of fertile fields, plants, colourful fields and blue skies above. I enjoy those landscapes so much although I've heard from many people it's boring. It is NOT!!!

Favorite thing: I don't know why, but I was enchanted with this snail! Poor thing, it was in the middle of the central square in Osijek downtown, on some wooden pieces that were part of the renovation building site, and as it was raining that day, he crawled out from wherever he was hiding to enjoy Osijek nightlife in the center! It was so cute! I got quite attached and it was sad to leave!!!
