Re: Any Europeans or people who lived in Europe?

[philstar22]

I did live in Europe. Specifically lived in Croatia for a year and a half.

I think the least touristy place I visited (outside of where we were living) while there was Wales. It is just beautiful and a lot of history stuff, and it is just less overtaken by tourist stuff. There are some really nice castles, a fun museum on the history of coal that includes a tour of an actual mine, and St Fagans National Museum of History where the lives of ordinary people are explored. There was also one place we visited where we got to see this really old, really tiny church basically built into a wall. It was so small basically 5-10 people could be inside it at most.

Also, the city we were living in, Osijek, is not remotely touristy. No museums. But really, really old buildings and architecture. If you are at all interested in architecture, it is a great place to visit. And the food is amazing. And because it is a small-ish town/city, it hasw a much quieter feel than the more high-tourist cities of Zagreb and Dubrovnik (where Game of Thrones was filmed). Although I would not recommend going in winter because it gets cold, and they use coal for heat, so the air gets bad.

Ooh, Croatia, nice! Well I assumed Wales was touristic but maybe not? I don't know how's tourism in the UK lately anyway. But sounds cute. I'm not really considering visiting rn but I'm planning on doing a Street View trip wherever sounds interesting lol hopefully maybe one day! Ojisek seems lovely architecture-wise, I don't know much about the history of Croatia but it seems like a planned city. Very pretty! Thanks for sharing!

Croatia is lovely. I loved Dubrovnik, but it is really touristy.

Honestly, I wish I'd been able to visit more places while I was there. My parents did an Italy trip that I missed out on and would have loved. And I'd really love to see Spain, Sweden, and Germany.

Aww, it's a pity that you couldn't make it (not sure what circumstances you were in, schedule/budget/career-wise) but I would love to visit most of these countries as well.

The circumstances were, I was living with my parents after my depression made me bottom out in college and I needed a break. They were missionaries, so not exactly made of money. I was only there a year and a half before I went back to college (spent more time in Asia, so have done more traveling there than in Europe). Happy I did get to see as much as I did. I do plan on going back someday, if I have the money.

Also, currently medicated and sleepy myself, so totally get that. I hope you are feeling okay and are able to get some good sleep.

Oww sorry but that's an incredible experience. Thank you and rest easy you too :)

It really was amazing. Honestly, I think getting to live in more than one country is a really amazing experience. There is something different about actually living in different cultures that is really profound and shapes you in ways you don't expect. Especially when it happens when you are a kid, but even as an adult.
