I went directly to the article from my “blogs I follow page” and read it thinking it was you. Ha-ha. Well, somebody had a great time.
Is that your island also?

Yes Donald, Korcula is where I was born

It’s a beautiful place. One of the nicest I can imagine based on the images. I also like the way they bake food in open fire ovens (if I have that right).
I read that pamphlet about Croatia and it helped me to better understand its location, its history, and its relationship with its neighbors.
I was thinking earlier today about the rise of China, and I’m not so certain I think it’s a good thing. As bad as the US can be, it’s nver done anything as disgraceful as what China did to it’s best, brightest, and bravest young people in Tienanmen Square. It seems that the world has forgotten that atrocity–and it shouldn’t.

Yes Donald, the world shouldn’t forget any atrocity but it does if it suits some individuals in power it seems

Love Hvar, my late father’s home island. Sorry but it is pronounced Hvar not simply Var. I struggled with those multi consonants and entertained my cousins repeatedly, until they encouraged me to pronounce it like a local as ‘for’ or better still ‘fuor’ with a super soft/lazy ‘u’. Either way Hvar, Korcula, Brac are a sensational part of the world.

Thanks Steve
Hello,
I’m Ina
I was born in Croatia and live Australia. I have been described as a prominent figure known for my contribution to the Croatian and wider societies, particularly in the context of Croatia’s transition from communism to democracy, as well as for my many years of work as a clinical psychologist and Chief Executive Officer of government-funded services for people with disabilities, including mental health services, in Australia. In 1995, the President of the Republic of Croatia awarded me two Medals of Honor, the Homeland War Memorial Medal and the Order of the Croatian Trefoil for her special merits and her contribution to the founding of the Republic of Croatia. I have been a successful blogger since 2011 and write extensively in the English-language on issues related to Croatian current affairs and democracy, as well as the challenges Croatia faced and still faces in its transition from communism. My goal is to raise awareness of these connections and issues worldwide.
