Back home, what's different?
Landing once again on a Croatian soil had more of a specific taste this time. Even though spending little bit more than a year away is not a period that is long enough to draw some serious conclusions, my brain is playing a different game. As soon as I left the airplane all of the sudden I'm not in Canada anymore, people bitching around, taxi drivers throwing signs at my face, honking and nervous drivers and many other delights that I can live without.
But the way I adapted easily going from "bad" to "good" the other way around wasn't a problem as well. Late October sunny and warm day made things much easier. Apart from smiling and saying hi to everybody first couple of days, transition to a Croatian version of me was kind of immediate. Although I'm not sure if things are going to be smooth like this after couple more years of Canada.
