I'm from Croatia, it's a beautiful small country on the Adria next to Italy, Serbia, Bosnia...

Here are some pics from our sea:



I com from Orahovica. It's a small town in the inland (Slavonija). It has a lake, nature, hills and Ružica grad (an old demolished castle from 1228. there are many legends of a princess or  something similar-Ružica). The worst thing is that the inland is more poor than the capital of Croatia or the waterside and the people aren't  satisfied about that (politics )

here are some pics:

 

I also want introduce you in Osijek, the city i'm studying in. It's the biggest city in Slavonija, but not really big. It's near the river Drava. Osijek was destroyed in the war 1991, and there are still many scars on it. In Osijek aren't so many trees and nature like in Orahovica, it's more around the city. Osijek could be a really pretty city if they would do something with it, i hope it will be happen soon. The good things in Osijek is the climate (snow in winter, hot summer,beautiful spring) and many very old buildings, like the cathedral in the town center and Tvrđa (a baroque part, my favourite part of the city) Here are some pictures:

This is a pic of the halfpenny briidge over the river liffey(Dublin)


This is powerscourt waterfall9(wicklow)


This is killiney hill and wicklow coast



And This is just a random pic of the liffey (Clane Co. Kildare)



Disadvantage: Rain, rain and more rain
Advantages: Way to many to pick just one.  I love Ireland theres nowhere like it and I can put up with the crappy weather cause it's just brilliant.
