Dragi putnici!

Dear passengers!

U vremenu smo godišnjih odmora i češćih putovanja. Raduje me što za mnoge od vas put prema odabranom ljetnom odredištu počinje upravo u našem zrakoplovu. Od srca vam zahvaljujem na tome.

Tijekom ljetnog reda letenja planiramo obaviti više od 16.000 letova i ponuditi oko 1,766.000 sjedala kako bismo i ove godine pridonijeti kvaliteti hrvatskoga turističkog proizvoda i povezanosti naše zemlje s međunarodnim odredištima. Kao odgovor na pojačanu tržišnu potražnju, ovog ljeta povezujemo najveći dalmatinski grad Split s ukupno 18, glavni grad Zagreb s 15 te jadranski biser Dubrovnik sa šest europskih odredišta.

Ponovno su uvedeni sezonski letovi Rijeka − München, a novost je i uspostava cjelogodišnjih međunarodnih letova na liniji Osijek − München.

Nedavno smo obilježili i dvije važne obljetnice − 30. obljetnicu uspješne poslovne suradnje s Lufthansom Technik na području održavanja zrakoplova i 25. obljetnicu osnutka vodećega saveza zračnih prijevoznika Star Alliancea. Ponosan sam na to što je naš Tehnički sektor postao centar izvrsnosti u kojem se obavljaju najzahtjevniji tehnički radovi ne samo na našoj floti nego i na zrakoplovima inozemnih prijevoznika te što je prepoznat kao pouzdan partner diljem svijeta. Zadovoljstvo mi je također što, kao jedna od dugogodišnjih članica Star Alliancea, naša kompanija neprekidno sudjeluje u inovacijama toga saveza kojemu je cilj pružiti putnicima besprijekorno iskustvo putovanja uz jedinstvene programe vjernosti.

Kao i uvijek, dok letite, predlažemo vam opuštanje uz raznovrsne teme u našemu putnom časopisu. Predstavljamo vam našu kulturu, baštinu i umjetnost te zanimljive sugovornike i turistička odredišta. Vjerujem da će i u ovom izdanju svatko pronaći nešto za sebe.

Vama i vašim najmilijima želim lijepe i ugodne ljetne dane te zahvaljujem na povjerenju koje nam darujete.

It’s time for holidays and travels. I’m glad that, for many of you, the journey to your chosen summer destination starts with us, and this I am deeply grateful for.

To contribute to the quality of Croatia’s tourism product, and to help connect Croatia with international destinations, during this year’s summer timetable we’re planning to operate more than 16,000 flights, whilst offering about 1,766,000 seats. In response to increased market demand, this summer we’re connecting the biggest city in Dalmatia, Split, with a total of 18, the capital of Croatia, Zagreb, with 15, and the Pearl of the Adriatic, Dubrovnik, with six European destinations. We’re also reintroducing seasonal flights between Rijeka and Munich. Another novelty is the introduction of year-round international flights between Osijek and Munich.

Recently, we celebrated two important anniversaries − the 30th anniversary of successful business collaboration with Lufthansa Technik in the field of aircraft maintenance, and the 25th anniversary of Star Alliance, the world’s leading airline alliance. I’m proud that our Technical Sector has become a centre of excellence, where the most demanding technical work is performed not only on our fleet, but also on the aircraft of foreign carriers, and that it’s recognised as a reliable partner worldwide. I’m also pleased that, as a long-standing member of Star Alliance, our company has uninterruptedly participated in the innovations of the alliance, which looks to provide passengers with a seamless travel experience including unique loyalty programmes.

As always, while flying, we invite you to relax by reading a variety of different texts in our inflight magazine. We’re presenting Croatia’s culture, heritage, and art, as well as an interesting interview, and holiday destinations. I believe that all of you will find something of interest.

I wish both you and your loved ones great and pleasant summer holidays.

Thank you for your trust.

ivimo u vremenu koje nam, možda više nego ikad, zorno pokazuje koliko je važno stvaranje mostova među ljudima. Nedavno je američki politički strateg i lider američke židovske zajednice Ari Mittleman u svojoj knjizi Staze pravednika: priče o herojstvu, humanosti i nadi hrvatskog liječnika i znanstvenika prof. dr. sc. Dragana Primorca uvrstio među devet osoba sa svih kontinenata koji su svojim radom pridonijeli izgradnji baš takvih mostova. Naslov te knjige kao da je vidovito najavio osobine koje nam najviše trebaju upravo sada, u ovom globalno izazovnom vremenu.  Što za Vas znači uvrštavanje u spomenutu knjigu i kako ocjenjujete trenutak u kojem živimo? − Čast je biti u knjizi s iznimnim ljudima koji su tijekom svojeg života činili

dobro i, kako autor kaže, hodali stazama pravednika. Opisujući značenje pravedničke staze u Knjizi izreka, kralj Salomon kaže: A pravednička je staza kao svjetlost svanuća, koja je sve jasnija do potpunog dana. Ukratko, riječ je o ljudima koje senator Joseph Lieberman smatra ljudima koji s dobrom voljom djeluju zajedno i pobjeđuju netrpeljivost. Odgovornost svih nas jest usprotiviti se nepravdi i izboriti za prava onih najugroženijih.

Knjigu Staze pravednika doživljavam kao poziv na suradnju ljudi dobre volje kako bi zlo svake vrste, uključujući rasizam, ugrožavanje prava manjina te antisemitizam zauvijek nestali. Smatram da je bit svega sažeta u riječima Martina Luthera Kinga Jr.: Najveća tragedija nije ugnjetavanje i okrutnost loših ljudi, već šutnja onih dobrih.

se uspješno posvećujete znanstvenom radu i liječničkoj praksi. Jedan od najvećih svjetskih izdavača znanstvene literature ELSEVIER BV objavio je popis na kojemu je i Vaše ime, a odnosi se na dva posto znanstvenika u svijetu s najvećim utjecajem citiranosti. Kako znanstvenog rada i njegove primjene u praksi? Koliko je važno povezivanje teorije s praksom? − Medicina je oduvijek bila moja ljubav, no znanost mi je bila i ostala trajna inspiracija u traženju novih znanja i novih istina. Jedno i drugo objedinio sam ba-

veći se translacijskom medicinom, kojoj je svrha najnovije znanstvene spoznaje integrirati u kliničku praksu. Ako pogledate rangiranje najboljih svjetskih zdravstvenih institucija, prednjače one koje su u svakodnevni rad integrirale načela translacijske medicine. Osobno nikada nisam ostao vezan okovima postojećih znanja, nego je put kojim kročim konstantno traženje novoga. I tako više od 30 godina.  Na čemu upravo najviše radite kad je riječ o medicinskoj praksi, a čemu ste se posvetili u znanstvenim istraživanjima? − Integracija koncepta personalizirane medicine u kliničku praksu trenutno je moj najveći prioritet. Personalizirana medicina temelji se na poznavanju i razumijevanju procesa na molekularnoj razini, što ima ključnu ulogu u pravodobnoj dijagnostici bolesti, no isto tako i u optimizaciji liječenja. Moj tim jednostavno živi personaliziranu medicinu, a kao odgovor na vaše pitanje istaknut ću samo dva segmenta našeg rada. Jedan od njih jest vezan uz rezultate naših petogodišnjih kliničkih istraživanja kojima smo po prvi put utvrdili molekularni mehanizam učinka autolognog mikrofragmentiranog masnog tkiva, koje sadrži mezenhimalne matične stanice, prilikom liječenja oštećenja zglobne hrskavice u oboljelih od osteoartritisa. Primijetili smo da takav oblik liječenja dovodi do značajnog porasta glikozaminoglikana (ključnih molekula hrskavičnog tkiva), što je za posljedicu imalo statistički značajno poboljšanje kliničkog statusa pacijenata u odnosu na početne rezultate. Drugi primjer vezan je uz kliničku aplikaciju farmakogenomike i tzv. genetičkih proaktivnih ili prediktivnih testova u kliničku praksu. Farmakogenomika pomaže razumijevanju zašto neke osobe odgovaraju na lijekove, a druge ne, zašto neke osobe trebaju više ili niže doze za postizanje optimalnoga terapijskog odgovora, a može upozoriti i na pacijente koji neće odgovoriti na terapiju, odnosno, na one u kojih se mogu pojaviti toksične nuspojave. S druge strane, genetičke proaktivne ili prediktivne testove koristimo u svrhu prevencije nastanka bolesti i pravovremenog otkrivanja bolesti kao i u optimizaciji liječenja. Primjerice, nedavno smo u suradnji s američkim partnerima objavili rad u časopisu Frontiers in Medicine, a u objavljenom radu analizirali do sada najveći broj gena povezanih

s nizom nasljednih kardioloških stanja koja dovode do iznenadne srčane smrti, točnije 294 gena.  Vaša bolnica Sveta Katarina i Vi osobno dali ste velik doprinos u potrazi za uspješnim načinom suzbijanja i liječenja bolesti COVID-19, između ostaloga i mezenhimalnim matičnim stanicama. O čemu je riječ i nastavljate li i dalje istraživanja na tom području? − U časopisu Vaccine upravo smo objavili važne rezultate koji potvrđuju da je, za razliku od razine protutijela, razina stanične imunosti (koja je ključna u obrani od ponovne infekcije SARS-CoV-2) uglavnom konstantna u osoba koje su preboljele COVID-19 ili su cijepljene. Ti rezultati pridonose boljem uvidu u imunopatogenezu COVID-19, ali i javnozdravstvenom zbrinjavanju pandemije SARS-CoV-2. Istodobno, među prvima u svijetu uspješno smo primijenili liječenje mezenhimalnim matičnim stanicama pacijenta s teškom kliničkom slikom COVID-19. Mezenhimalne matične stanice koje su primijenjene u pacijenta s COVID-19 dobivene su iz koštane srži zdravog donora, potom selektirane i uzgajane u posebnim uvjetima.

Ove su stanice posebne jer ne sadrže glavni sustav tkivne podudarnosti (HLA-II), čime se sprečava imunosna reakcija organizma primatelja na stanice donora. Ključno je da prilikom sustavne primjene (putem cirkulacije) mezenhimalne matične stanice dolaze na mjesto upale ili oštećenog tkiva, pa tako i do plućnog tkiva te na tim mjestima sekrecijom oslobađaju brojne bioaktivne faktore koji imaju snažan protuupalni, imunomodulatorni, anti-apoptotični (sprečavanje smrti stanice), ali i regenerativni učinak.

Kolege iz Izraela s kojima surađujemo također su pokazali sjajne rezultate, no još uvijek je riječ o malom broju pacijenata i za konačne prosudbe potrebno je napraviti velike kliničke studije. Na tragu svega, naš nedavno objavljeni pregledni članak u časopisu Frontiers in Immunology detaljno analizira odgovor imunosnog sustava na infekciju uzrokovanom SARS-CoV-2.  Bolnica Sveta Katarina ušla je u iznimno značajno partnerstvo s najvećom američkom znanstvenom institucijom University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC). Zamolila bih da nam približite značaj tog partnerstva. − UPMC je vrhunska zdravstvena institucija koja je ponos američkog zdravstva.

Osnovana je 1893. godine, a trenutno zapošljava 92.000 djelatnika, od toga 5000 liječnika. Godišnji proračun bolnice jest 23 milijarde američkih dolara, a u lancu UPMC-a ukupno je 40 bolnica s 8400 kreveta. S druge strane, Specijalna bolnica Sv. Katarina stekla je svjetsku prepoznatljivost, koliko zbog sjajnih stručnjaka, toliko i zbog sustavnog integriranja najnovijih znanstvenih spoznaja iz personalizirane medicine u kliničku praksu. Naši su zajednički planovi brojni, a tu ponajprije mislim na znanstvenu i stručnu suradnju u području personalizirane medicine jer duboko vjerujemo da ona čini temelje za iskorak u medicini 21. stoljeća.  Često ističete važnost farmakogenetike i implementacije personalizirane medicine u kliničkoj praksi. Također smatrate da bi se Hrvatska mogla pozicionirati kao jedan od lidera na tom području. Možete li to dodatno pojasniti? − Farmakogenetika između ostalog proučava vezu između genetičke predispozicije pojedinca i njegove sposobnosti metaboliziranja, transporta i distribucije određenog lijeka, kao i sposobnosti vezanja za određene molekularne mete poput receptora, enzima i drugih proteina. Ona pomaže razumijevanju zašto neke osobe nemaju željeni terapijski odgovor nakon primjene lijeka, zašto je za postizanje optimalnoga terapijskog odgovora kod nekih osoba potrebno primijeniti višu ili nižu dozu lijeka, a može uputiti i na one pacijente kod kojih će terapijski učinak izostati, odnosno na one u kojih se mogu pojaviti neželjeni učinci lijekova. Vodeći američki medicinski časopis JAMA prije niz godina objavio je članak o tome da samo u SAD-u u godišnje više od 2 milijuna hospitaliziranih bolesnika nakon uzimanja lijekova ima ozbiljne štetne učinke lijekova, dok njih 106.000 zbog štetnih učinaka lijekova umre. Danas su te brojke znatno veće. Zbog navedenoga, samo u SAD-u zdravstveni sustav izdvaja 30 milijardi dolara godišnje za liječenje komplikacija uzrokovanih štetnim učincima lijekova. S druge strane, nedavni podaci za Europu pokazuju da se 7 do 13 posto pacijenata prima u bolnicu zbog neželjenih reakcija na lijekove te da bi se korištenjem farmakogenetike većina tih učinaka mogla spriječiti. Specijalna bolnica Sv. Katarina, u suradnji s američkim partnerima iz poduzeća OneOme, čiji je

I ove godine u Dubrovniku u suradnji s Mayo Clinic, ISABS-om i bolnicom Sveta Katarina organizirate veliki kongres, koji obrađuje teme iz forenzike i antropološke genetike i koji već postaje ne samo tradicionalan nego i legendaran jer je na njemu do sada sudjelovalo sedam dobitnika Nobelovih nagrada. Koje su teme ovogodišnjeg kongresa i na čemu će biti naglasak? − Suradnja s Mayo Clinic izniman je privilegij. Posebno sam zahvalan vodstvu Mayo Clinic koje već gotovo dva desetljeća daje potporu zajedničkoj suradnji. Naš kongres okuplja vodeće svjetske liječnike i znanstvenike iz područja personalizirane medicine i jedan je od najznačajnijih svjetskih događaja iz ovog područja. U radu dosadašnjih kongresa sudjelo­ valo je sedam dobitnika Nobelove nagrade (prof. dr. sc. Robert Huber, prof. dr. sc. Aaron Ciechanover, prof. dr. sc. Ada Yonath, prof. dr. sc. Paul Modrich, prof. dr. sc. Harald zur Hausen, prof. dr. sc. Avram Hershko, prof. dr. sc. Richard Roberts) te 5800 znanstvenika i petstotinjak pozvanih predavača, ukupno iz više od 70 država, što je Republiku Hrvatsku odredilo kao jednu od najznačajnijih destinacija iz područja znanosti, zdravstva, inovacija, ali i turizma. U radu ovogodišnjega, dvanaestog izdanja ISABS Conference on Forensic and Anthropologic Genetics and Mayo Clinic Lectures in Individualized Medicine, koja se u Dubrovniku održava od 22. do 27. lipnja 2022. godine uz više od 500 sudionika, sudjelo­ vat će tri dobitnika Nobelove nagrade, prof. dr. sc. Richard Roberts, prof. dr. sc. Thomas Südhof i prof. dr. sc. Aaron Chechanover. Tijekom ovogodišnjeg kongresa naglasak će biti na epigenetici i njezinoj ulozi u nastanku bolesti, uključujući i nastanku karcinoma, farmakogenomici, genskoj i staničnoj terapiji, regenerativnoj medicini, ulozi strojnog učenja i umjetne inteligencije u liječenju karcinoma, prenatalnoj dijagnostici, forenzičkoj i antropološkoj genetici, ali i brojnim drugim inovativnim temama u medicini 21. stoljeća.

Naša partnerska institucija tradicionalno je Američka akademija za forenzične znanosti.

In collaboration with the Mayo Clinic, the International Society for Applied Biologi­ cal Sciences or ISABS, and St. Catherine Specialty Hospital, you’re organising a big conference, which will again take place in Dubrovnik. This year’s ISABS conferen­ ce isn’t the first you organised. ISABS conferences tackle topics in forensics and anthropologic genetics. What’s more, seven Nobel Prize winners have participated in ISABS conferences so far, which makes it a par excellence event. What are the topics of this year’s ISABS conference, and what will the conference focus on? − Collaboration with the Mayo Clinic is an exceptional privilege. I’m extremely grateful to the management of the Mayo Clinic, which has been supporting this collaboration for nearly two decades already. Our conference brings together the world’s leading physicians and scientists in the field of personalised medicine, and is one of the world’s leading events in this field. Seven Nobel Prize winners have participated in the work of previous conferences, namely, Prof. Robert Huber, Prof. Aaron Ciechanover, Prof. Ada Yonath, Prof. Paul Modrich, Prof. Harald zur Hausen, Prof. Avram Hershko, Prof. Richard Roberts.

Also, 5,800 scientists, and approximately five hundred invited lecturers from more than 70 countries from around the world have partook in the conferences so far. These facts have positioned the Republic of Croatia as one of the leading destinations in the fields of science, health, innovation, as well as tourism. In the work of this year’s twelfth edition of the ISABS Conference on Forensic and Anthropologic Genetics and Mayo Clinic Lectures in Individualized Medicine, which is taking place in Dubrovnik between 22nd and 27th June, over 500 conference attendees will participate, including three Nobel Prize winners; namely, Prof. Richard Roberts, Prof. Thomas Südhof, and Prof. Aaron Ciechanover. This year’s conference focuses on epigenetics, and its role in the development of disease including cancer, pharmacogenomics, gene and cell therapy, regenerative medicine, the role of machine learning and artificial intelligence in cancer treatment, prenatal diagnostics, forensic and anthropologic genetics, and a number of other innovative topics relating to 21st century medicine. Traditionally, our partner institution is the American Academy of Forensic Sciences.

omogućiti sustavno educiranje o važnosti farmakogenetike u kliničkoj praksi, čime bi se značajno smanjila pojavnost neželjenih učinaka lijekova kao i pojava smrtnosti uzrokovane lijekovima.  Među Vašim raznovrsnim interesima oduvijek je bilo i Vaše posebno zanimanje za sport; član ste američke Kuće slavnih taekwondoa, nedavno Vam je uručen crni pojas 7 dan WTO organizacije i zlatna medalja Europske unije taekwondoa; potpredsjednik ste Hrvatskog taekwondo saveza, član ste Vijeća Hrvatskog Olimpijskog odbora, a odnedavno ste i član Zdravstvene i anti­ doping komisije Europskih olimpijskih odbora, najvišeg tijela svih olimpijskih odbora Europe. Čemu se želite najviše posvetiti na toj funkciji? − Sport je uz medicinu i znanost nedjeljiv dio moga života. Kao liječnik svim sportašima želim omogućiti pravovremenu dijagnostiku i najbolju moguću zdravstvenu skrb. Danas tu skrb temeljimo na individualiziranom pristupu, koja svakom sportašu optimizira dijagnostičke, terapijske i rehabilitacijske postupke. Upravo taj koncept svakodnevno provodimo u našoj bolnici Sv. Katarina, koja je službena bolnica Hrvatskog olimpijskog odbora i hrvatske nogometne reprezentacije.  Nevjerojatno ste mnogo učinili na području suradnje Hrvatske i Izraela. Među zanimljivostima vezanima uz Vaš život svakako je i prijateljstvo s Nobelovcem Shimonom Peresom te njegovom obitelji. Kako je došlo do tog prijateljstva? − Moj prvi susret s Shimonom Peresom dogodio se 2002. godine u njegovu jeruzalemskom uredu i tada je započelo naše prijateljstvo. Našem bliskom odnosu snažno je pridonio njegov sin i moj dragi prijatelj Chemi. Shimon Peres znao mi je govoriti: Sanjaj veliko i to će ti se ostvariti.

Pred kraj života napisao je knjigu Nema mjesta za male snove, koju smo preveli i na hrvatski jezik. Sjajna autobiografska knjiga o životu iznimno mudrog čovjeka koji je obnašao gotovo sve ključne funkcije u Izraelu te na kraju postao predsjednik države i dobitnik Nobelove nagrade.

Zasigurno je i jedan od najznačajnijih političara 20. stoljeća. Vjerovao je da političari i lideri nisu izabrani da demonstriraju silu i snagu, nego da služe svom narodu.

e live in a time that clearly demonstrates, perhaps more than ever, just how important it is to build bridges between people. In his recent book, Paths of the Righteous: Stories of Heroism, Humanity and Hope, the American political strategist and American Jewish community leader Ari Mittleman ranked Croatian physician and scientist Professor Dragan Primorac, M.D., Ph.D., amongst the group of nine people from the four corners of the world who have contributed to building such bridges. Moreover, the title of Mittleman’s book seems to have clairvoyantly

listed the qualities that we need the most right now in this globally challenging time.  What does being included in Mittle­ man’s book mean to you, and how would you describe and assess the time in which we live? − It’s an honour to be included in this book in the company of exceptional people who’ve done good in their lives, and who’ve walked the paths of the righteous, to paraphrase, as it were, Mittleman’s title.

Describing the meaning and significance of the righteous path, in the Book of Pro­ verbs, King Solomon says: The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day. In brief, these are people that Senator Joseph Lieberman considers to be individuals who work together in good faith to overcome intolerance. It is the responsibility of all of us to stand against injustice, and fight for the rights of the most vulnerable. I see Ari Mittleman’s book Paths of the Righteous as a call for people of good will to collaborate, so that evil in all its forms, including racism, violations and denials of minority rights, and anti-Semitism, would forever disappear. I think that the essence of it all is best summed up by Martin Luther King Jr.’s quote: The ultimate tragedy is not the op­ pression and cruelty by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people.  During your successful career, you have devoted yourself equally success­ fully to both scientific work and medical practice. One of the world’s leading pub­ lishers of science and health information, ELSEVIER BV, has published a list with your name on it. This list is a list of the top two percent of the world’s scientists with the highest citation impact. How do you find the right balance between conducting scientific work and its app­ lication in practice? How important is it to connect theory with practice?

− Medicine has always been my love.

But science has always been my endless source of inspiration in my search for new knowledge and new truths. I’ve combined the two in the field of translational medicine, which looks to integrate the latest scientific knowledge into clinical practice. If you look at the ranking of the world’s best healthcare institutions, the ones at the very forefront are those that have integrated the principles of translational medicine into their daily work.

I’ve always looked to be free of the shackles of existing knowledge, and the path I tread has always been characterised by a constant search for the new. And this has been so for more than 30 years.  What have you been working on the most in terms of your medical practice, and what have you devoted yourself to in terms of scientific research? − Integrating the concept of personalised medicine into clinical practice is at present my top priority. Personalised medicine is based on knowing and understanding processes at the molecular level, which plays a key role in not only reaching timely diagnoses, but also in treatment optimisation. My team lives and breathes personalised medicine. In answer to your question, I’ll highlight two segments of our work. One of these relates to the results of our five-year clinical trials which have established, for the first time, the molecular mechanism of action of autologous micro-fragmented adipose tissue containing mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of articular cartilage da­mage in patients suffering from osteoarthritis. We’ve observed that this form of treatment leads to a significant increase in glycosaminoglycans − these are one type of cartilage tissue molecules − which results in a statistically significant improvement in the clinical status of patients compared to their initial assessment. The other example pertains to the clinical application of pharmacogenomics, and proactive or predictive genetic tests in clinical practice. Pharmacogenomics helps us understand why some people respond to medication and others don’t, why some people need higher and others lower medication doses to achieve optimal therapeutic effects, and it can also single out patients who won’t respond to therapy, or those who may experience toxic side effects. Proactive or predictive genetic tests are used to prevent the onset of disease, to detect disease in a timely manner, and to optimise treatment.

For example, we’ve recently published a pa-

per in the Frontiers in Medicine journal in collaboration with our American partner Invitae, in which we analyse the largest number of genes associated with a number of inherited heart conditions that lead to sudden cardiac death; 294 genes, to be exact.  St. Catherine Specialty Hospital, a hospital that you founded, and you perso­ nally have contributed greatly to finding a way to control and treat COVID-19 disease. This included the application of mesenchymal stem cells. Could you tell us more about this, and whether you are continuing your research in this direction? − In the Vaccine journal, we have just published a set of important results. They confirm that, in people who have had COVID-19 or have been vaccinated against it, the level of cellular immunity is mainly constant, which is not the case with antibody levels. And one must bear in mind that cellular immunity is crucial in our body’s defence against SARSCoV-2 reinfection. These results contribute to our understanding of the immuno-pathogenesis of COVID-19, as well as to the ways in which public health authorities manage the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. It’s worth pointing out that we were also amongst the first in the world to have successfully administered mesenchymal stem cell treatment to a patient suffering from a severe COVID-19 infection. The mesenchymal stem cells administered to the patient diagnosed with COVID-19 were obtained from the bone marrow of a healthy donor in partnership with Educell Ltd. The cells were then selected, and grown in special conditions.

These cells are special because they don’t contain human leukocyte antigens or HLA-II, a major histocompatibility complex (MHC).

Given that these cells are HLA-II-free, if you like, that prevents the recipient’s body from developing an adverse immune response the donor cells. What is crucial here is that, du­ring systemic administration via circulation, these mesenchymal stem cells reach the site of inflammation or damaged tissue, including lung tissue, and that they secrete, in these places, a number of bioactive factors that have strong anti-inflammatory, immuno-mo­dulatory, anti-apoptotic (cell death prevention), and regenerative effects.

Our colleagues from Israel that we work with have also arrived at great results. We have to bear in mind that the number of patients treated this way is still very small, and that large clinical studies are required for a definitive conclusion. In the wake of all this,

Odgovornost svih nas jest usprotiviti se nepravdi i izboriti za prava onih najugroženijih.

It is the responsibility of all of us to stand against injustice, and fight for the rights of the most vulnerable.

our recently published review article in the Frontiers in Immunology journal analyses in great detail the immune system’s response to an infection caused by SARS-CoV-2.  St. Catherine Specialty Hospital has entered into an extremely important part­ nership with a leading academic medical institution in the US, the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC). Could you explain in more detail why this part­ nership is important? − The UPMC is a top healthcare institution, the pride of American healthcare. It was founded in 1893, and currently employs 92,000 people, of whom 5,000 are physicians. The hospital’s annual budget is $23 billion, and the UPMC chain of partner hospitals encompasses a total of 40 hospitals with 8,400 beds. Similarly, St. Catherine Specialty Hospital has gained worldwide recognition, both because it employs great experts, and because it systematically integrates the latest scientific insight gained in the field of personalised medicine into clinical practice. Together, we have many plans, primarily focusing on scientific and professional collaboration in the field of personalised medicine, because we firmly believe that personalised medicine lays the foundations for medicine of the 21st century.  You often highlight the importance of pharmacogenetics and the implementa­ tion of personalised medicine in clinical practice. You also believe that Croatia could position itself as one of the leaders in this field. Could you explain this in more detail? − Pharmacogenetics studies, amongst other things, the link between the genetic predisposition of an individual and their ability to metabolise, transport, and distribute a drug, and their ability to bind to certain molecular targets, such as receptors, enzymes, and other proteins.

It helps us understand why some people respond to medication and others don’t, why some people need higher and others lower medication doses to achieve optimal therapeutic effects, and it can also single out patients who won’t respond to therapy, or those who may experience toxic side effects. A number of years ago, a leading American medical journal, JAMA, published an article stating that more than two million hospitalised patients in the United States alone have serious adverse or unwanted drug reactions after taking medication, and that over 106,000 of them die as a result.

Today, these numbers are even higher.

Due to this, in the United States alone, the healthcare system spends $30 billion a year to treat complications caused by adverse or unwanted drug reactions. Similarly, recent data collected in Europe show that 7 to 13 percent of patients are admitted to hospital due to adverse drug reactions, and that the application of pharmacogenetics could, in fact, prevent most of these effects. In collaboration with our American partners from OneOme, which was founded by the Mayo Clinic, St. Catherine Specialty Hospital has introduced the most comprehensive pharmacogenetic test to date into clinical practice, which analyses 27 genes and 111 associated polymorphisms responsible for the metabolism of more than 300 drugs.

The book we published under the title Pharmacogenetics in Clinical Practice: Experience with 55 Commonly Used Drugs was written in English, German, and Croatian with a view to helping physicians around the world understand the importance of the application of pharmacogenetics in clinical practice. Moreover, we’re about to finish the most comprehensive book on pharmacogeno­mics to be published by Springer Nature, one of the world’s leading publishers. Our most important goal is to provide a systematic education framework that educates about the importance of pharmacogenetics in clinical practice, which would significantly reduce the incidence of adverse drug reactions, and the incidence of mortality associated with the adverse effects of medical treatment.  You have many different interests, amongst which your interest in sports has always stood out.

medal by the European Taekwondo Union, you’re the vice-pres­ ident of the Croatian Taekwondo Federation, you’re a member of the Croatian Olympic Committee Council, and recently you became a member of the Medical and Anti-Doping Commission of the European Olympic Commi­ttee, the highest body of all Olympic committees in Europe. While serving in this capacity, what will you focus on the most? − Besides medicine and science, sport is an integral part of my life.

As a physician, I want to be able to give all athletes timely diagnoses, and provide them with the best possible healthcare. Today, we base this care on an individualised approach, which helps us to optimise diagnostic, therapeutic, and rehabilitation procedures for all athletes.

This is exactly what we’ve been implementing every day in St. Catherine Specialty Hospital, which is the official hospital of the Croatian Olympic Committee, and the Croatian National Football Team.  You have invested a great deal in setting up collaboration bet­ween Croatia and Israel. A fascinating and curious fact about your life is your friendship with the Nobel laureate Shimon Peres and his family. How did that friendship form? − I first met Shimon Peres in 2002 in his Jerusalem office, and that’s when our friendship began. His son and my dear friend Chemi contributed strongly to our developing a close relationship. Shimon Peres used to tell me: What you dream will come true, so always dream big. Towards the end of his life, he wrote the book No Room for Small Dreams, which was translated into Croatian. It’s a great autobiographical book about the life of an extraordina­rily wise man who held almost all key offices in Israel, and eventually became president of Israel, and who won the Nobel Peace Prize. He’s unquestionably one of the key politicians of the 20th century. He firmly believed that politicians and leaders are not elected to show strength and demonstrate power, but to serve their people. In the preface to the Croatian edition of his book No Room for Small Dreams: Courage, Imagination, and the Making of Modern Israel, I wrote: He considered himself a philosopher. I consid­ ered him a mentor and a friend. Some considered him a leader, and some a politician. In my eyes, he was and remains a dreamer, but one of only few dreamers whose dreams, almost all of them, came true.  Another fascinating fact about your life and career is that you were appointed as the first Global Ambassador of Penn State University, which was founded in 1855. Similarly, you were appointed the honorary title of professor emeritus by the National Forensic Sciences University in India. These appointments are given in recognition of your work and contribution, but they also imply duty and responsibility. Were you surprised by these appointments? − It’s an honour to be named as the first Global Ambassador of Penn State University. It’s a great university that boasts 24 campuses at which more than 100,000 students from more than 140 countries from around the world study. At present, Penn State University has the largest network of active alumni in the United States; more than 170,000, to be precise. And the university’s alumni association consists of Nobel Prize winners, members of the US Senate and Congress, governors, US Supreme Court justices, and heads of state. I saw my appointment as professor emeritus at the National Forensic Sciences University in India as recognition for my work, and I am grateful to the university’s leadership and all the institutions of the Government of the Republic of India who supported my appointment.

Our common goal is to continue developing interdisciplinary forensic sciences, and to use science in the fight against organised crime, terrorism, bioterrorism, etc., which will make the world a better place to live. 

Ne propustite šetnju u zagrljaju mora koja opija aromom Mediterana. Kanal sv. Ante prirodni je fenomen koji oduševljava slikovitom ljepotom. Stoljećima je štitio ulaz u Šibenski zaljev i učinio ga jednim od najsigurnijih na istočnoj obali Jadrana. Dug je oko 2500 metara, a karakteriziraju ga šume alepskog bora i hrasta crnike te više od 50 vrsta školjkaša i gotovo 600 vrsta biljaka. Duga 4,4 kilometra, uz kanal se proteže šetnica koja povezuje područje od uvale Paninkovac do otočića Školjića pred Tvrđavom sv. Nikole. Obilazak šetnice u jednom smjeru traje oko 2 sata, a pružit će vam očaravajući pogled na cijeli grad i prelijepi šibenski akvatorij. Uzduž šetnice na nekoliko mjesta postavljene su klupe i stolovi za predah, solarne svjetiljke za orijentiranje noću, a najljepši su večernji sati kada sunce na zalasku unese puno toplih boja u mirne vode kanala koji opija izgledom i nesvakidašnjom ljepotom!

Be sure to take a walk embraced by the see intoxicating you with the fragrance of the Mediterranean. Saint Anthony’s Channel is a natural phenomenon that delights with its picturesque beauty. For centuries, the channel has protected the entry to Šibenik Bay, making it one of the safest bays on the eastern coast of the Adriatic. It’s about 2,500 metres long, and boasts Aleppo pine and evergreen oak forests, over 50 species of shellfish, and almost 600 species of plants. There’s a 4.4 kilometre long promenade that stretches along the channel connecting Paninkovac Cove and Školjić Islet right next to Saint Nicholas’s Fortress. Taking a walk along the entire length of the promenade in one direction takes about 2 hours, where you’ll get to absorb breath-taking views of the entire city and stunning seascapes. There are a number of benches and tables for you to take a break and enjoy the view, and orienteering solar lamps for night-time mounted in several places on the promenade, along which the evening hours are the most beautiful when the setting sun introduces an entire palette of warm colours into the calm waters of the channel intoxicating you with its very landscape and exceptional beauty.

poklonika, a planinarenje i penjanje osiguranim planinarskim putovima sve je popularnije i među hrvatskim putnicima. Via ferrata znači željezna staza − zaštićena staza za penjanje i pješačenje izgrađena od čeličnog kabela, metalnih stepenica i ljestava pričvršćenih na stijene. Iako ne zahtijeva prethodno planinarsko iskustvo, mnogi će se složiti da je to izvrstan način za istraživanje prirode.

Ferrata Čikola već na samom početku daje čaroban pogled na impozantni kanjon i rijeku Čikolu koju nazivaju simbolom Dalmatinske zagore; put do nje nije označen, ali lako je prohodan i traje oko 15 minuta. Cijela ruta dugačka je 2 kilometra, a uz lagani hod i povremeno zaustavljanje može se prijeći za 2 do 3 sata. Početak uspona udaljen je oko 25 minuta od Šibenika, a možete ga doživjeti u bilo koje doba godine. Via ferrate zbilja su posebno iskustvo, jedan drugačiji i atraktivniji doživljaj planinarenja.

Svima nam je poznato kako današnji užurbani način života ne ostavlja dovoljno vremena za tjelesnu aktivnost i bavljenje sportom te sve veći broj ljudi ima zdravstvenih problema povezanih sa sjedilačkim načinom života. Ako poželite uživati u istinskoj ljepoti i kreativnom umijeću prirode, obujte tenisice ili sjednite na bicikl te doživite neku od atraktivnih pješačkih i biciklističkih staza u Šibeniku i njegovoj okolici. Biciklističke i pješačke staze provest će vas kroz najljepše dijelove ovoga božanstvenog krajolika.

Na stranici www.bikeandhike.hr pronaći ćete brojne rute po svim vrstama podloga i za sve tipove vožnje − bilo da se želite voziti uz obalu i uživati na morskom zraku ili po stazama u zaleđu upoznavati šumske i gorske puteve, vinograde i maslinike.

Neovisno o tome jeste li rekreativac ili profesionalni sportaš, šibensko područje je kao stvoreno za rekreaciju na dva kotača.

Biciklirajte uživajući u prekrasnim panoramskim stazama i upoznajte mnogobrojne bunje, ostatke starog naselja Žaborića, prirodni izvor pitke vode Ribnik, Morinjski zaljev, starohrvatske crkve, četiri šibenske tvrđave, čuveni most s pogledom na rijeku Krku i cijeli akvatorij, bunkere te brojne druge znamenitosti Šibenika!

Let’s now leave fear of heights behind you, and head for your first ferrata. Via ferrata fan numbers have been growing year after year. Hiking and climbing trails that are secured have been gaining in popularity amongst Croatian holidaymakers as well.

Via ferrata translates as iron trail − a secure climbing and hiking trail which is prepared and made safe with safety steel wire rope, eyebolts, and iron steps. It doesn’t require prior climbing experience either, and many will agree that it’s a great way to explore nature.

From the get-go, Ferrata Čikola offers a spectacular vista of the impressive Čikola canyon and river, which is often referred to as the symbol of Dalmatia’s hinterland; the path to it is not marked, but it’s passable,

Their three zip lines along which you glide through the air above tree canopies and the magical Čikola River are 250, 500, and 650 metres long providing a full hour’s worth of sheer excitement.

This type of recreational sporting activity doesn’t require any special physical readiness or preparation on your part. All you have to do is follow the instructions of their experienced guides, have lots of positive energy, and a desire to have tons of fun.

Whether you’re a recreational athlete or a keen sportsperson, you’re unlikely to remain indifferent to the beauty of one of the most stunning parts of the Adriatic coast, and one of the grandest maritime entries to a town − Saint Anthony’s Channel. Jump into a kayak, grab the paddle, and set out on a journey of discovery of the waters of Šibenik, which hide real gems, such as Saint Nicholas’s Fortress, thanks to which Šibenik has never been attacked from the sea. The fortress’s fascinating history, inspiring architecture, and interesting story will take you back to the time when the Ottomans conquered a number of Dalmatia’s hinterland towns, dangerously closing in on

OPTIKA OPTICS

ZEISS VISION CENTER FOTOGRAFIJE/PHOTOS __

Prvi ZEISS Vision Center u Hrvatskoj, a 254. u svijetu otvoren je u središtu Zagreba. Brend ZEISS poznat je po posvećenosti inovacijama i korištenju novih tehnologija koje omogućuju cjelovit pristup vidu i naočalama.

Bogata tradicija i posvećenost inovacijama osnovne su značajke preciznoga, provjerenoga i pouzdanog brenda ZEISS. Riječ je o prvoj hrvatskoj optici koja donosi holistički pristup odabiru idealnog optičkog rješenja kroz precizno definiranu metodologiju rada u osam koraka.

Interijer centra koji se smjestio u Gundulićevoj 8 potpisuje njemački arhitekt Elmar Gauggel, a odlikuju ga čiste i precizne linije te fotografija Earthrise, koju

Luka Smuk

je koristeći Zeissovu fotografsku leću snimio američki astronaut William Anders 1968. godine tijekom misije Apolla 8 na Mjesec.

ZEISS je osnovan prije 175 godina, a mikroskope sa ZEISS optikom leća koristio je davne 1881. čak i Charles Darwin, koji je nekoliko mikroskopa naručio od Carla Zeissa. Claude Monet htio je slikati svijet onako kako ga zaista vidi pa je od Zeissa naručio posebne naočale kako bi dovršio svoj ciklus remek-djela, Lopoče, u trenutku kad mu se vid pogoršao zbog mrene.

Koncept ZEISS Vision Centra razvijen je po modelu Apple storea te počiva na četiri stupa − najnovija, vrhunska

tehnologija uređaja, odabrani stručni tim optometrista, dizajn te najkvalitetnije ZEISS naočalne leće.

Misija koncepta jest educirati nositelje naočala o maksimalnim mogućnostima vida jer vid je prevažan da bismo se zadovoljili samo dobrim naočalama.

Pomno izabrani brendovi naočalnih okvira kao što su Lindberg, You Mawo, Matsuda i dr. odražavaju vrijednosti današnjeg osviještenog čovjeka koji se odmiče od konzumerizma i sve se više priklanja viziji da dioptrijske naočale služe njemu, a uz neopterećen vid svijet postaje mjesto vizualne udobnosti.  The first ZEISS Vision Center in Croatia − and the 254th in the world − has recently opened in the heart of Zagreb. The ZEISS brand is known for its commitment to innovation, and the application of new technologies making our approach to sight and glasses holistic.

A strong tradition and a commitment to innovation are the underlying features of ZEISS brand’s precision, reliability, and trustworthiness. This is the first optical shop in Croatia

whose opticians help you choose your ideal optical solution holistically and by using a precisely defined eight-step method.

The interior of the centre, located at no. 8 Gundulićeva Street, was designed by German architect Elmar Gauggel, and features clean and precise lines, and a photograph of Earthrise, which was taken by American astronaut William Anders in 1968 during the Apollo 8 mission to the Moon using a Zeiss camera lens.

ZEISS was founded 175 years ago. It is interesting to note that ZEISS microscopes were used as early as 1881 by none other than Charles Darwin himself. Specifically, he ordered several microscopes directly from Carl Zeiss. Also, painter Claude Monet wanted to paint the world the way he actually saw it, so when cataracts developed in his eyes and his eyesight started deteriorating as a result, he ordered special glasses from Zeiss to complete his series of masterpieces − his Water Lilies.

The concept of the ZEISS Vision Center was modelled on the Apple Store, and rests on four pillars − state-of-the-art technology, an expert team of optometrists, design, and the highest quality ZEISS spectacle lenses.

The mission of the concept is to educate glasses wearers about the maximum potential of vision − vision is far too important for you to be satisfied with merely good glasses.

Carefully selected brands of spectacle frames, such as Lindberg, You Mawo, Matsuda, etc., reflect the values of today’s conscious individual who has abandoned consumerism and accepted the idea that prescription glasses serve them. Thanks to vision free of restrictions, the world becomes a place of visual comfort. 

Telašćica je park prirode na Dugom otoku, poznat po čudesnim strmcima, ali krije još mnoge atrakcije. Iako danas djeluje pomalo divlje, Telašćica je odavno privlačila ljude kao sigurno sidrište u trgovini istočnim Jadranom.

Famed for its stunning cliffs, Telašćica Nature Park on Dugi Otok hides many other attractions as well. Even though today it does look some­ what untamed, Telašćica has long attracted people as a safe haven in trading with the East of the Adriatic.

a krajnjem južnom kraju Dugog otoka otvara se prostrana mirna uvala, raj za nautičare. Ljeti se ovdje izvan dosega jakih vjetrova sve bijeli od usidrenih jedrilica. Dok na pučini vjetar valja valove, u uvali se djeca kupaju i istražuju obalne stijene. No osim sigurne luke, Telašćica pruža i spektakularne krajolike i izvornost Mediterana, što je čini neodoljivom destinacijom. Također, ovaj prostor čuva i veliki prirodnu vrijednost pa je zaštićena kao park prirode, priljubljen uz nacionalni park Kornati.

Kratka šetnja uzbrdo kroz hladovinu mirisne borove šume dovodi do ruba ogromne provalije, poznatih strmaca odnosno klifova. Visoki su mjestimice i vrtoglavih 150 metara. Na sjeverozapadu se produžuju i izvan granica parka, gdje se klif Gračina obrušuje čak 208 metara prema moru. Odatle se postupno smanju-

Uz pjesmu cvrčaka klikću čiope u svojem akrobatskom letu dok se goste letećim kukcima prije spavanja. Ovdje se u sigurnosti strmih litica ove ptice i gnijezde, baš kao i sokoli te druge ptice. Iako izdaleka djeluju beživotno, strmci su vrijedno stanište mnogim biljkama koje prkose gravitaciji, a jedna je od njih endemska dubrovačka zečina.

lepršaju u vodi. Skrivena u mutnoj dubini živi obična jegulja. Čini se da male jeguljice ulaze kroz pukotine dna i sazrijevaju u jezeru iz kojeg potom ne mogu izaći.

Zbog jakog isparavanja i malog dotoka vode, jezero je čak slanije od mora, što je jedinstveno na Jadranu. Ime Mir dolazi od latinske riječi murus, što znači zid, kojih ima puno u okolici.

Već uz jezero ostatak je stare kamene kuće, jednostavne i uklopljene u krš. Iako danas djeluje pomalo divlje, Telašćica je odavno privlačila ljude kao sigurno sidrište u trgovini istočnim Jadranom. Osim toga, to je i bogato ribolovno područje.

Kako je život od mora težak, čovjek je iskorištavao i škrto kopno. Obrađivao je mala, ali bogata krška polja, oaze plodne zemlje usred oštrog kamenjara i šikare, gdje su natapane znojem rasle masline, vinova loza i povrće. Život od zemlje i danas je važan, uglavnom za stanovnike iz

Dovoljno je skrenuti malo dalje s asfaltirane ceste na jedan od brojnih puteljaka i ući u svijet pomno obrađenih vrtova čije je zelenilo na jarkocrvenoj zemlji poput male oaze u sivoj stijeni i makiji. U blizini često zna biti lokva, a i koji magarac u društvu koza u sjeni drveća.

Ipak dominiraju maslinici koji uspijevaju i na manje gostoljubivijem terenu krških padina, između labirinta suhozida, na tlu brižljivo očišćenom od kamenja.

Put od jezera Mir vodi do pučine, gdje se strmci spuštaju do razine mora, no surova razlomljena obala i dalje vlada. More se odavde proteže sve do Italije, što znači da valovi nesmetano udaraju u otok. Ponekad površinu zaparaju jata dobrog dupina, a tu je nekad u uvučenim špiljama živjela i sredozemna medvjedica. Divovski strmci nastavljaju se strmo i ispod zapjenjene površine mora još desecima metara, gubeći se u tami i plavilu dubine. Ovdje u sjeni

razvila se koraligenska zajednica, gdje crvene alge te korasti mahovnjaci stvaraju tvrdi vapnenački skelet. U toj razigranoj čipki života česti su i koralji, naročito gorgonije. Ove šarene i razgranate žive lepeze vole stjenovita dna, često na okomitim zidovima litica, prevjesa, podmorskih špilja jer vole tamnija mjesta. Biološka je raznolikost koraligena velika, gdje unutar brojnih prostora ili na površini koralja žive drugi organizmi poput mnogočetinaša, rakova i bodljikaša. Kamene koralje nalazimo u uvali, a to je jedini koralj koji u Jadranu može tvoriti koraljne grebene.

Na ravnijem dnu jesu cvjetnice morskih trava, stanište mnogim vrstama, možemo reći jaslice ribama i drugim organizmima.

U uvali ima mnogo riba, pa i velike pučinske kao što je tuna, ali najčešća je ušata.

Općenito je podmorje bogato i očuvano, ponajprije zato što su to zaštićena područja, bez lova i uznemiravanja. Takvo je more prirodno mjesto za razmnožavanje ribe i drugih organizama koji potom naseljavaju ostatak mora. To upotpunjuje iznimnu prirodnu vrijednost ovih prostora, od strmaca, otočića, uvala i, dakako, mora. 

spacious, quiet bay opens at the southernmost tip of Dugi Otok, a true paradise for boaters. In summer, out of reach of strong winds the sailboats anchored here turn the entire landscape white. While the wind keeps rolling the waves on the open sea, in the bay children keep swimming and explor­ ing the rocks on the coast unconcernedly.

However, Telašćica is not just a safe har­ bour. It also offers spectacular seascapes imbued with an authenticity typical of the Mediterranean, which makes it irresistible as a destination. What’s more, Telašćica is home to an array of nature’s treasures, which is why it’s been protected as a nature park, and is right next to the Kornati National Park.

A short walk uphill in the shade of a fragrant pine forest takes you to the edge of a huge precipice. These are Telašćica’s famous cliffs. Measuring in places up to 150 metres, they’re dizzyingly high. They extend well beyond the nature park in the northwest, where Gračina Cliff crashes steeply towards the sea from a height of 208 metres. From there, the cliffs start to gradually shrink in height until they vanish from sight hiding under the sea at the foot of Muravjak Peak. Watching the incandes­

cent sphere of the sun touch the sea in the distance and bidding it farewell at sunset at Telašćica’s cliffs is an extraordinary experience. Chirping cicada are joined in by singing swifts flying about acrobatically and feasting on flying insects before calling it a day. It is here, in the safety of these steep cliffs, that swifts, as well as falcons and other birds, nest. Even though these cliffs may come across as lifeless from afar, they are a valuable habitat for many plants that seem to defy gravity. One such plant is Centaurea ragusina or the silver knapweed, which is native to this region.

Wedged between these cliffs on the one side and the lagoon on the other is Lake Mir. A bird’s-eye view reveals that this small turquoise lake on Dugi Otok is clearly sepa­ rate from the surrounding sea. What ex­ plains the lake’s turquoise colour is its shal­ lowness and the fine grey mud covering the bottom of the lake, which is considered to have healing and therapeutic properties.

The lake’s shallows are thronged with large crabs milling about, and common prawns scurrying around. At the same time, European eels hide in the murky depths of the lake. What explains their presence here are the cracks in the lakebed, through which baby eels enter the lake, and once they grow in size in the lake, there’s no way out for them. As a result of extensive evaporation and low levels of water inflow, the salinity of Lake Mir is higher than that of the surrounding sea, a phenomenon which is unique on the Adriatic. The name of the lake, Mir, comes from the Latin word murus, which translates as wall, of which there are many in the area.

Right beside the lake, there are the remains of an old stone house, a simple stone house that’s blended perfectly with the karst landscape.

has long attracted people as a safe haven in trading with the East of the Adriatic.

Besides, it’s an area rich in fish. But, as it’s difficult to live off the sea alone, people turned to exploiting the land, which was sparse to begin with. They would till the island’s small yet rich karst fields, oases of fertile soil surrounded by sharp rocks and underbrush, where olive trees, vines, and vegetables grew soaked in sweat. Living off the land continues to be important to this

Telašćica je dugačka više od 8 km zračne linije, a široka od 150 do 1500 metara, gotovo 70 kilometara obale unutar uvale. Cijeli zaljev iz zraka podsjeća na rakova kliješta, s jednim debljim i drugim tanjim krakom − strmcima. Razvedenosti posebice pridonosi 25 manjih uvala, od kojih je Čuška dumboka toliko uska i duguljasta da podsjeća na pravi fjord, te pet manjih otočića, jedna hrid i brojni rtovi. U sklopu Telašćice jest i nekoliko otoka izvan zaljeva, skupina Garmenjaka i Sestrica te Katina na ulazu u zaljev.

Posebno je zanimljiv otočić Taljurić, visok samo tri metra i gotovo potpuno plosnat zbog silnih valova što ga prelijevaju i ravnaju.

Telašćica Nature Park is more than 8 km long, and 150 to 1500 metres wide, encompassing almost 70 kilometres of coastline within the bay itself.

A bird’s-eye view of the nature park reveals that it resembles the shape of crab claws whose one pincer is thicker and the other thinner. These are its cliffs. Telašćica features as many as 25 smaller coves, five smaller islets, one cliff, and numerous capes, all of which paints a very indented coastline. One bay is worth singling out − namely, Čuška Dumboka. It’s so incredibly narrow and elongated that it reminds of a fjord.

Telašćica also encompasses a number of islands outside the bay itself, including the Veli Garmenjak and Garmenjak Mali islets, the Sestrice islets, and the Katina Islet at the mouth of the bay. Taljurić Islet is truly eye-catching − it rises only three metres above the sea, and is almost perfectly flat. Its flatness is the result of powerful waves lapping against it steadily and flattening it.

day, and most of those who do live off it are the residents of the nearby town of Sali.

To enter this world of carefully cultivated gardens, all you have to do is leave the paved road and take one of the many dirt roads. The greenery sprouting and growing there from bright red soil is nothing short of a tiny oasis amongst grey rock and Mediterranean underbrush. In the vicinity of these gardens, there are often puddles of water, as well as a donkey in the company of goats somewhere in the shade of trees.

Even so, the landscape is dominated by olive groves given that the olive tree thrives on the less hospitable terrain of karst slopes, in dry stone wall labyrinths, on bits of land carefully cleared of stone.

The path from Lake Mir leads to the open sea, where the cliffs descend to sea level, with the rugged coastline still reigning supreme. From here, the sea stretches all the way to Italy, meaning that there’s nothing that gets in the way of the waves pounding the island. From time to time, the surface of the sea is disturbed, in a manner of speaking, by pods of common bottle­ nose dolphins. Mediterranean monk seals once also lived there in hidden, tucked away caves. These giant cliffs continue to crash steeply well below the foamy surface of the sea for tens and tens of metres, disappearing into the deep darkness of the blue sea. A coralligenous community grows here in the shadows, where red algae and bryozoa, which are commonly also known as moss animals, have formed a hard limestone skeleton. In this playful lace of life, corals, and especially gorgonians, are not a rare sight. These colourful and branching tree-like living fans love rocky

seabeds, vertical cliff walls, overhangs, and underwater caves simply because they’re fond of darker places. Such coralligenous communities support great biodiversity given that other organisms, such as bristle worms, crustaceans, and sea urchins, live either on the surface of these corals or in the spaces between them. Bushy corals can also be found in the bay, and it’s the only species of coral that can form coral reefs in the Adriatic.

The flatter parts of the seabed is where flowering seagrass can be found, an important habitat for many species, a nursery, if you will, for fish and other organ­ isms. The bay is rich in fish, including large offshore fish such as tuna, although the most common is the saddled seabream.

Telašćica’s seabed is, in general, rich and well-preserved, primarily because this area is protected, which means that no fishing is allowed, and so the fish are not disturbed.

Such waters are a natural breeding ground for fish and other organisms that then inhabit the rest of the Adriatic. This only complements the exceptional natural value of this landscape, including its cliffs, islets, coves, and, naturally − the sea. 

Zašto je raznolikost lijepa?

Kvarner kao kolijevka hrvatskog turizma i danas jedna od vodeće tri turističke regije u Hrvatskoj ima jedinstvenu kombinaciju primorja, otoka i gorja. Primorje čine Opatijska rivijera, Rijeka i okolica te Crikveničko-vinodolska rivijera. Četiri su velika otoka koja okružuju brojni manji: Krk, Cres, Lošinj i Rab. A Gorski kotar, gorski dio smješten na granici dvaju velikih europskih planinskih lanaca gdje završavaju Alpe i počinju Dinaridi, veza je između kontinentalne i mediteranske Hrvatske. Na Kvarner su oduvijek dolazile, odmarale se, uživale u klimatskim blagodatima i ambijentu mnoge kraljevske glave, umjetnici i elita iz svijeta bogatih i slavnih… Kvarner je udaljen samo nekoliko sati vožnje od najvećih europskih metropola Beča, Münchena, Milana, Budimpešte, Ljubljane i Venecije. Regija Kvarner na razmjerno malenom području u jednoj slici ima mnogo priča, i to je ono što je čini jedinstvenom, savršenom kombinacijom: Kvarner efekt − ili pojednostavljeno rečeno, kvarnerska aromaterapija na otvorenome.

Istinske morske ptice, one koje većinu života provode na moru te u prehrani ne ovise o ljudskim navikama bacanja hrane, za svoje kolonije biraju mjesta gdje je najmanja vjerojatnost uznemiravanja pa se gnijezde na samotnim i udaljenim mjestima na pučini.

Takva su mjesta otočići oko Lastova, Palagruža i Vis, gdje se mogu pronaći dvije vrlo rijetke vrste morskih ptica − kaukal i gregula.

Ti maleni hrvatski albatrosi, za koje većina stanovnika Lijepe Naše po svoj prilici nikada nije ni čula, a rijetko ih je tko imao uopće prilike vidjeti uživo, postali su predmet šireg interesa kada je u listopadu prošle godine BirdLife International, najveća svjetska organizacija za zaštitu ptica,

01

objavila Crveni popis ptica Europe.

Prema rezultatima tog popisa ugroženih vrsta, gregula je preskočila čak dva mjesta na ljestvici koja vodi prema izumiranju.

Udruga Biom, predstavnik BirdLifea u Hrvatskoj, zazvonila je na uzbunu te na svojoj web stranici www.biom.hr pokrenula kampanju za spas ovih sredozemnih endemskih ptica, čiji bi nestanak s Jadrana bio velik gubitak za bioraznolikost prirode kojom se svi toliko volimo pohvaliti.

Biolozi iz udruge Biom već niz godina bave se proučavanjem, praćenjem stanja i zaštitom tih ptica oko Lastova u suradnji s Parkom prirode Lastovsko otočje i udrugom Sunce. U tome im pomažu i volonteri, a među njima je mnogo stranih volontera koji se vraćaju kući s nezaboravnim uspomenama na gotovo neprohodne terene kamenitih obala pučinskih škoja,

gdje se nalaze skriveni domovi kaukala i gregule.

Ove dvije srodne vrste pripadaju skupini cjevonosnica, koju odlikuje potpuna prilagođenost životu na moru. Zahvaljujući plivaćim kožicama, odlični su plivači i ronioci koji u lovu na ribu zarone i do 10 metara dubine. Putem cjevčica na kljunu izlučuju iz organizma višak soli, što im omogućuje da žive pijući slanu morsku vodu.

Bioma označili na Lastovu praćene su od Venecije do Malte, pa i do Crnog mora.

Satelitski odašiljači otkrili su da neki od lastovskih kaukala odlete čak do Brazila!

Ne treba im kopno ni za prehranu ni za spavanje jer mogu spavati u letu, na autopilotu. No kada dođe vrijeme da polože jaje, ptice koje su se izlegle na Lastovu u pravilu se vraćaju onamo i odabiru škrapu ili neku pogodnu policu u stijeni gdje će na svijet donijeti potomka, i to samo jednoga godišnje. Parovi ostaju zajedno cijeli život, a mogu doživjeti i do 25 godina.

Kako se gnijezde na mjestima gdje nemaju prirodnih neprijatelja, jaja polažu na tlu. No zbog utjecaja ljudi, do udaljenih otočića doprli su štakori koji su ondje zatekli lako dostupan plijen − jaja i male ptiće kaukala i gregule. Prijetnja se nadvila nad cijelom populacijom hrvatskih cjevonosnica, ali zahvaljujući naporima biologa, na nekim otočićima uklonjena je prijetnja budućnosti ovih ptica na Jadranu. Međutim, još je puno posla, ne samo s invazivnim glodavcima već i s otklanjanjem drugih prijetnji, kao što je slučajni ulov ptica u ribolovne alate ili svjetlosno zagađenje zbog kojeg se mlade dezorijentirane jedinke mogu ozlijediti. Zato treba podržati ove napore, kao što su to do sada u Biomovoj kampanji učinili i mnogi poznati ljudi, poput pisca Ede Popovića, režisera Darija Juričana, glazbenice i voditeljice Ide Prester, dubrovačkog vaterpolista Mare Jokovića ili zadarskog jedriličara Šime Fantele. 

O

bserved from a bird’s-eye view, the less pronounced the presence of people is, the more fascinating the Croatian Adriatic becomes. To build nest-

ing colonies, proper seabirds − those that spend most of their life at sea, and whose feeding habits don’t depend on human food consumption and waste − choose places where they’re least likely to be disturbed.

This means that they nest in secluded and remote spots in the open sea. Such spots can be found on the islets around the Island of Lastovo, on Palagruža and on Vis, where two very rare species of seabirds nest − namely, Scopoli’s shearwater and the Yelkouan shearwater.

Spasimo zajedno gnijezda ispod lastovskih zvijezda!

Biom invites all people to join their Saving Seabird Nests under the Stars of Lastovo campaign to save Scopoli’s and Yelkouan shearwaters by making a donation to Biom via their website www.biom.hr/doniraj, by making a direct payment to their bank account (IBAN: HR7524020061500115609, model and reference number of payment: HR00 01-01-02), by subscribing to Biom’s newsletter, by sharing information on social media, and by joining Biom’s community of friends of birds and nature. Let’s join forces to save seabird nests under the stars of Lastovo.

Although only few Croatians have heard of and fewer still have actually had the chance to see these little seabirds live, these Croatian albatrosses − as they’re also known − became the subject of wider interest when BirdLife International, the world’s biggest

bird conservation organisation, published the European Red List of Birds in October last year.

According to the results of this list of endangered species, the Yelkouan shearwater has gone up as many as two rungs on the ladder leading to extinction. The Biom Association, BirdLife’s partner in Croatia, sounded the alarm, and launched a campaign on its website www.biom.hr to save these seabirds native to the Mediterranean, whose extinction would be a great loss to Croatia’s natural biodiversity that we all love to boast about.

Biologists from the Biom Association have been studying, monitoring, and protecting these seabirds around the Island of Lastovo for many years in collaboration with the Lastovo Islands Nature Park, and the Sunce Environmental Association. In this, they’re helped by volunteers, amongst whom there are many foreigners who take home unforgettable memories of the largely impassable terrain of the rocky shores of these islets surrounded by the open sea, hiding the habitats of both Scopoli’s and Yelkouan shearwaters.

These two related species belong to the so-called tube-nosed or Procellariiformes order of seabirds that are fully adapted to life at sea. Thanks to their webbed feet, they’re excellent swimmers and divers. While fishing, they can dive to depths of up to 10 metres. Through the tubular nostrils on their upper bill, they excrete excess salt from their body. This feature allows them to hydrate by drinking seawater. In search of food, they can cover vast distances.

Kaukal u gnijezdu među stijenama A Scopoli’s shearwater in a nest surrounded by rocks

Malta, some to the Black Sea, and some as far as Brazil!

They’re in no need of land for either food or sleep given that they can sleep in flight, on autopilot, so to speak. But, when the time comes for them to lay their eggs, the birds that hatched on Lastovo, as a rule, return to Lastovo. To lay its egg, only one a year, from which its chick will hatch, a female shearwater chooses a karren or a suitable shelf-like rock structure. Shearwater couples mate for life, and can reach the age of 25.

Given that they nest in places where no predators prey on them, they lay their eggs on the ground. However, due to the impact of human activity, rats have reached these remote islands, and found easy prey − Scopoli’s and Yelkouan shearwater eggs and chicks. Threat has started to loom large over Croatia’s entire population of tube-nosed seabirds. However, thanks to the efforts made by biologists, the threat to the future of these Adriatic seabirds has, on some islands, been countered successfully. Nevertheless, a lot of work is still to be done, not only in terms of eradicating invasive rodents, but also in terms of combating other threats, such as seabirds being accidentally caught in fishing gear or light pollution because of which chicks get disoriented and then easily injured. This is why the efforts made by biologists require support, and we’re happy to say that Biom’s campaign has already drawn public attention, and is supported by many public figures, such as writer Edo Popović, film director Dario Juričan, musician and TV and festival host Ida Prester, the Dubrovnik-born water polo player Maro Joković, and the Zadar-born professional sailor Šime Fantela. 

Ponosni na svoje naslijeđe Proud of our heritage

Iako se trendovi i moda ubrzano mijenjaju, neki komadi ostaju svevremenski.

Upravo je takav hrvatski tradicijski nakit − elegantan i vječan u svome dizajnu.

Ovakav nakit prije se izrađivao isključivo ručnom, filigranskom tehnikom isprepletanja tankih zlatnih i srebrnih niti, u kombinaciji s kuglicama iste kovine. Danas se čuvanje ovog prepoznatljivog dizajna i kvalitete održava i nastavlja kombinacijom starih tehnika izrade sa suvremenim tehnologijama.

Ono što je nekad bilo obilježje statusa i imetka koji se prenosio s naraštaja na

naraštaj, bogatstva ili zrelosti za udaju − danas je simbol našeg naslijeđa i istinski doticaj s našim precima i kulturom. Tradicijski nakit, kao simbol snage i ponosa, nosi bogatstvo prošlih vremena u suvremenoj izvedbi i omogućuje nam da se podsjetimo tko smo i što nosimo u sebi.

Svaki komad donosi dašak hrvatske povijesti, običaja i znamenitosti pretočen u prekrasne komade nakita koji dokazuju da je moguće spojiti današnji i suvremeni trenutak s tradicijom te kako je tradicija zapravo odavno izišla iz svojih zastarjelih

okvira. Nakit iz ove kolekcije svojim će bezvremenskim dizajnom i elegancijom upotpuniti svaku modnu kombinaciju, a onoga tko ga nosi povezat će s prošlošću i pružiti osjećaj ponosa i snage.

Romantični šibenski botuni, nježne i ženstvene rećine, upečatljive dalmatinke i prepoznatljive konavoske verižice samo su neki od modela iz Zaksove Heritage kolekcije koja je u potpunosti izrađena u Hrvatskoj i koju možete pronaći u svim Zaks poslovnicama i na web shopu. www.zaks.hr

Even though trends and fashion change fast, some pieces remain timeless. This is the case of Croatian traditional jewelry − elegant and everlasting in its design.

Such jewelry used to be exclusively handmade, using filigree − a technique that involves twisting thin gold and silver threads, in combination with beads made from the same metal. The conservation of this distinctive design and quality is maintained and continued today with a combination of old manufacturing techniques and modern technologies.

Something that used to be a symbol of status and fortune that was passed down

from generation to generation, wealth, or maturity for marriage − today is the symbol of our heritage and a true connection with our ancestors and culture. Traditional jewelry, as a symbol of strength and pride, carries the treasure of the old days in a modern version and allows us to remember who we are and what we carry inside of us.

Each piece brings a taste of Croatian history, customs and landmarks turned into beautiful pieces of jewelry which are a proof that it is possible to combine the modern moment of today with tradition, and that tradition has actually stopped being outdated long time ago.

The jewelry from this collection will complete any fashion outfit with its timeless design and elegance, and it will create a connection between the person wearing it and the past and provide the feeling of pride and strength.

Romantic Šibenik botun (button), delicate and feminine rećine, remarkable dalmatinke and distinctive konavoske verižice are just some of the models from Zaks’ Heritage collection which has been entirely made in Croatia and which can be found in all Zaks stores and the web shop. www.zaks.hr

I

deja slobode pitanje je koje je danas možda važnije nego ikada ranije, pitanje koje je sveopće i sveprisutno u svim aspektima društva. Okruženi smo pitanjima i idejama koje se postavljaju i stvaraju kroz sve kanale kojima komuniciramo.

Moda nije isključena iz tog razgovora.

I upravo to jest tema koju je Varteks sebi zadao ovogodišnjom ljetnom kolekcijom.

Otkriti ideju slobode u subjektivnom doživljaju sebe. I percepciji nas samih u očima drugih. Ovu kolekciju treba promatrati samo kao jedan od alata za uspostavljanje koncepata koje će svaki sudionik ove predstave, naš kupac, mijenjati i nadopunjavati vlastitim doživljajem sebe.

Razlog je to fragmentiranosti i potpune slobode nove kolekcije najdugovječnije hrvatske modne kuće; umjesto gotove slike, Varteksov dizajnerski tim nudi vam da otkrijete kolekciju koju ćete moći sami oblikovati, interpretirati, osloboditi se stereotipa koji su vam nametnuti. Koja će postati dio vaše priče, vaših iskustava, vaših života.

Suprotstavljanje formi, tkanina i boja koje se uspostavljaju etabliranim konvencijama modnog razmišljanja postale su zaštitni znak Varteksova modnog izričaja, a te se filozofije dotiču i ove sezone.

Ono što je ostalo nepromijenjeno u ovoj Varteksovoj kolekciji jest kvaliteta i činje-

nica da je Varteks i dalje prepoznatljiv po tome što ga biramo kada želimo sjajan formalni look, bilo za posao ili posebnu prigodu.

Varteksov dizajnerski tim ne nameće vam osjećaj koji morate imati noseći njihove nove komade; Varteks nudi priliku za autentičan i osobni doživljaj koji ćete otkriti vlastitim osjećajima i iskustvima.

Varteks želi evocirati mladenački duh nekih prijašnjih vremena i isprovocirati uzbudljivost i znatiželju nekih novih senzibiliteta, točno onako kakvi oni ustvari i jesu: ekscentrični, romantični, djetinjasti, ozbiljni. Odnos tradicije i stilske neobuzdanosti sadašnjosti koju mnogi danas imaju, koju su mnogi imali i kojoj se mnogi nadaju, gdje su dobrodošle sve boje, sve generacije, sva uvjerenja i sva iskustva.

Stvoreni za kontrastiranje gradskog sivila savršen su spoj klasičnog i neočekivanog Varteks’s neon-coloured pieces will be the first choice for those bold enough who love wearing eye-catching pieces.

T

he idea of freedom is an issue which has been growing in importance, perhaps more than ever. The idea of freedom is universal and present in all aspects of society. We’re surrounded by ideas that are created and questions that are asked via all communication channels.

Fashion is not excluded from this conversation.

The idea of freedom is exactly what Varteks has chosen as the theme of its summer collection this year. You’re invited to discover the idea of freedom in your subjective experience of yourself, and in your perception of yourself through the eyes of others. This collection should be viewed as only one possible tool for establishing concepts that each and every actor in this performance, our customer, will change and complete with their own experience of themselves. This is the reason why the latest collection of the longest-lived Croatian fashion house is big on fragmentation and complete freedom. Instead of painting a complete picture, Varteks’s design team is offering you a collection that you’ll design and interpret yourself, freeing yourself from the stereotypes that have been imposed on you, a collection that’ll become part of your story, your experiences, your life.

Varteks’s cuts, fabrics, and colours stand in stark contrast to established fashion conventions. This has become a hallmark of Varteks’s fashion expression. This philosophy has come to the fore in this season’s collection as well.

Two particularities have, however, remained unchanged in Varteks’s latest collection.

The first is quality, and the second is the fact that Varteks remains the go-to fashion brand when what you want is a fabulous formal look, whether for work or a special occasion.

Varteks’s design team doesn’t impose on you a particular feeling you’re expected to have when wearing their new pieces.

Instead, Varteks offers you the chance to create your own authentic and personal experience which you’ll discover through your own feelings and exploration.

Varteks is looking to evoke in you the youthful spirit of bygone times, and arouse the feeling of excitement and curiosity about new sensibilities, exactly as they really are − eccentric, romantic, childlike, serious.

Varteks is looking to create a relationship between tradition and the limitlessness of style that today many have, that many have had, and that many hope for, where all colours, all generations, all beliefs, and all experiences are welcome.

rojekt Antisezona započeo je 2019. godine, kada se grupa plesnih umjetnica u nedostatku producentske kuće koja bi stala iza njihovih radova odlučila na sasvim jedinstven korak − pokrenule su platformu u kojoj zajednički rade na produkciji i prezentaciji vlastitih programa, a pozivajući goste stvaraju novo žarište najsuvremenijih zbivanja u

Kako se ove umjetnice bave inovativnim i eksperimentalnim pristupom plesu i otvaranjem prema vizualnoj umjetnosti i performansu, inkluziji, teoriji, odnosno novim tendencijama općenito, MSU je, na inicijativu i podršku producenta i voditelja Odjela za izložbeno-programsku djelatnost MSU-a Branka Kostelnika, uključio Antisezonu u muzejski program.

Ples kao živa izvedbena umjetnost unutar muzejskih zidova i programa trenutačno je iznimno aktualna tema na globalnoj umjetničkoj razini, koja mijenja lice muzejskih institucija i privlači novu interdisciplinarnu publiku. Antisezona prati taj trend, a predstavlja brojne renomirane i mlade umjetnike iz Hrvatske i inozemstva, organizira laboratorije i razgovore umjetnika i publike, objavljuje tekstove i razgovore o plesu, suvremenim teorijama tjelesnosti, povezujući plesnu, likovnu, glazbenu i kazališnu publiku.

Nastavno na trogodišnje uspješno djelovanje, između ostalog i kroz inovativni online+live format razvijen u doba pandemijskog lockdowna, program ovogodišnje Antisezone 22 sastoji se od pet blokova, a započeo je sastankom europske plesne mreže Life Long Burning, čiji je Antisezona član, kada je na raznim lokacijama muzeja publika mogla pogledati nagrađivane predstave domaće plesne scene. U ožujku su, uz reprizne domaće predstave, na programu bila gostovanja međunarodnih umjetnika, Laure Kirshenbaum iz Francuske i Ádáma Jenesesa i Bíborke Béres iz Mađarske, kao i tematski program koji postavlja pitanje Kako arhivirati i dokumentirati ples unutar Muzeja?

Blok u rujnu ugošćuje 16. međunarodni festival improvizacije i izvedbenih umjetnosti Improspekcije, koji se ove godine bavi osjetilnim površinama tijela kao mjestima komunikacije sa svijetom.

U listopadu inkluzivni plesni kolektiv Divert, koji vodi Iva Nerina Sibila, slavi deset godina djelovanja uz tematski program Paradoksi inkluzivnosti: (ne)vidljivost, (ne)posrednost, (ne)normativnost, koji će uključiti filmski program, predstave, radionice i tribine na temu invaliditeta i izvedbenih umjetnosti.

Studeni zaključuje Antisezonu 22, donoseći premijeru Objekt plesa Sonje Pregrad, koja se bavi odnosom izvedbenog žanra draga i suvremenog plesa, gostovanje međunarodnog tima predstave Explodirana sluz autorice Zrinke Užbinec te prezentaciju umjetničkog istraživanja Nine Gojić i Martine Tomić Pisanje kao izvedba.

Antisezona spajanjem kuratorske i umjetničke prakse čini prostor muzeja mjestom kontinuiranih živih susreta, razmjena, razgovora i iskustava, pozicionirajući tako ples u posve nov okvir unutar hrvatske umjetničke scene. 

T

he Antisezona project was set up in 2019, when − in the absence of a production company to support their work − a group of dance artists decided to take an unprecedented step.

They launched a platform where they work together on producing and presenting their own programmes, and where they get to invite guests, ultimately creating a hub, and presenting the latest in the world of

choreography, performance art, physicality, and intermediality. Considering that the approach of these artists to dance is innovative and experimental, and that they’re open to the visual arts and performance, inclusivity, theory, and new tendencies in general, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Zagreb has included the Antisezona programme in the museum’s programme at the initiative of and supported by producer and Head of the Performance and Exhibition Department of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Zagreb, Branko Kostelnik. Being a live art form performed within museum walls and programmes, dance is, at present, a hot topic on the world’s art scene, and has been changing the face of museums, and 01 Ekstravagantna predstava Koliko kubnih centimetara smije zauzeti moje tijelo Sonje Pregrad i Studija Tras The extravagant How Many Cubic Centimetres Can My Body Take Up performance by Sonja Pregrad and Tras Studio 02 Predstava Podivljalo, autorica Ane Kreitmeyer i Sonje Pregrad, dobitnica je Nagrade hrvatskog glumišta za najbolju predstavu u cjelini za 2020. godinu Ana Kreitmeyer and Sonja Pregrad’s performance Feral, winner of the Croatian Theatre Award for best dance performance in 2020

Posebnu pozornost Zagrebačka filharmonija posvećuje razvijanju interesa i približavanja klasične glazbe djeci i mladima kroz svoj Tjedan glazbe za mlade, koji svake godine privuče veliki broj mladih svih uzrasta. S istim ciljem, od sezone 2019./2020. osniva i svoj MINIMINI ciklus − posebno osmišljen ciklus za djecu koji kroz originalne produkcije poznatih naslova poput Ježeve kućice, Božića kod Zimogroznih te Ivice i Marice kroz mini glazbena vrata ulazi u veliki dječji svijet.

Daleke 1871. započela je profesionalna orkestralna aktivnost u Zagrebu, a 1920. orkestar je dobio ime Zagrebačka filharmonija koje i danas nosi. Kroz cijelo vrijeme u hrvatsku prijestolnicu donosio je najbolju klasičnu glazbu, a njegovu povijest pisali su prvorazredni

Back in 1871, Zagreb saw the beginnings of professional orchestral activity, and in 1920 the orchestra was given the name it has borne to this day.

The Zagreb Philharmonic Orchestra pays special attention to developing the interest of children and young people in music, and to bringing classical music closer to children and the youth through its Youth Music Week, which attracts a large number of young people of all ages every year. With the same goal in mind, in the 2019/2020 season the orchestra founded its MINIMI series. This is a specially designed series of concerts for children, which aims at being a mini musical gateway to the big world of children through original music productions of famous literary titles, such as Hedgehog’s Home, Christmas at the Winterdreads, and Hansel and Gretel. The orchestra has been traditionally collaborating with the Academy of Music in Zagreb, and this is a particularly important part of the orchestra’s activities. It’s an opportunity for future musicians to prove their mettle on a big concert stage, and to earn a place in the orchestra with their superb musicianship.

In collaboration with the Music Youth of Novi Sad in the capacity as project partner, the Zagreb Philharmonic set up, worked on, and completed a project financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), and the Instrument for Pre-accession Assistance II (IPA II). The project’s name was Fil(m)harmonija, and included screenings of silent films with musical accompaniment by the Zagreb Philharmonic Orchestra, which toured four towns; namely, Novi Sad, Ilok, Vukovar, and Subotica. By having combined two arts − music and film − the project not only crossed borders and pushed back the boundaries, but also enriched the cultural life of local communities.

Over the decades, the Zagreb Philharmonic Orchestra has supported creativity in Croatia by performing, premiering, and recording numerous pieces of music written by Croatian composers. It takes special care of talented young musicians, and awards the very best with the Young Musician of the Year Award. It has opened its doors to everyone wanting to meet the orchestra.

vima je poznato da je Amsterdam prijestolnica tulipana.

Lako nam je zamisliti tipičnu nizozemsku arhitekturu, brojne kanale i mostove. No koliko god da ste puta bili u nizozemskome glavnom gradu i to vam se sve već čini poznato, razgled Amsterdama uvijek je užitak. Zato vas i mi vodimo u kratak zajednički obilazak, uz zaustavljanje na nekoliko odabranih mjesta.

Amsterdam je izgrađen na 11 milijuna drvenih stupova tek metar iznad razine mora, no dobar dio grada i dalje se nalazi ispod njegove razine. Možete se odlučiti za razgled grada brodićem, ali možete i prošetati. I s pravom pretpostavljate da vam prometna buka neće smetati s obzirom na to da se većina Amsterdamaca vozi biciklom bez obzira na vremenske uvjete.

parku, Vondelparku, nećete pogriješiti. Dok lutate Vondelparkom, obratite pozornost na jarko zelene dugorepe papige koje su se u parku naselile prije pedesetak godina. Svojim su širenjem iznenadile i znanstvenike i laike. Ptice su uvezene šezdesetih godina prošlog stoljeća kako bi unijele živost u krletke bogatih Nizozemaca, a tih su ranih godina mnoge pobjegle od života iza rešetaka i prilagodile se vrevi ove hladne europske metropole. Upravo nam to dokazuje koliko je priroda iznimno prilagodljiva. Međutim, o njihovoj se prisutnosti danas glasno raspravlja. Kritičari smatraju da je riječ o invazivnoj vrsti koja onečišćuje okolinu te ne da mira onima koji bi nedjeljom ujutro malo dulje spavali. S druge strane, njihovi zagovornici smatraju da ih tijekom sive, hladne zime ove prelijepe, vesele ptice podsjećaju na toplije dane. Koju god stranu zauzeli, nikako ih nemojte hraniti, u protivnom bi vas mogla snaći novčana kazna od 70 eura.

Za one koji više od boravka u prirodi vole posvetiti vrijeme kulturi i umjetnosti u zatvorenim prostorima, Amsterdam je pravi dragulj. Ondje se nalazi više od 50 muzeja, a mnogi su od njih poznati diljem svijeta. Predlažemo da posjetite Muzej znanosti NEMO. Izložbene dvorane znakovitih naziva − Humania, Fenomena, Technium, Energetica i Elementa − možda vam se učine pregolemima, no zahvaljujući vrlo korisnoj web stranici www.nemosciencemuseum.nl možete sami osmisliti tijek svojeg posjeta. Iako je muzej NEMO namijenjen djeci i odraslima, na odvojenom lokaciji muzeja u Marineterreinu nazvanoj The Studio 8. lipnja otvorena je izložba Energy Junkies. Izložba se bavi našom ovisnošću o fosilnim gorivima i učincima potrošnje energenata na klimatske promjene te poziva posjetitelje da smanje potrošnju energije, što će nam pomoći da spasimo i očuvamo jedini dom koji imamo − Zemlju. Što god da ste odabrali − vožnju brodom, šetnju gradskim ulicama, odmor u glavnome gradskom parku ili posjet muzeju − sve je sjajno. U Amsterdamu ste. Uživajte! 

W

Možda niste ljubitelji neobičnih kombinacija, no ova bi vas mogla iznenaditi, posebno tijekom lipnja,

So let’s take a short tour of Amsterdam, stopping at a few selected spots that may pique your curiosity.

Amsterdam’s built on 11 million poles just a metre above sea level, although a large portion of it is still below sea level. Whether you tour Amsterdam by boat or on foot, you can rightly assume that your ears won’t suffer the sounds of city traffic, given that most Amsterdammers ride bikes, come rain or shine.

Why not head first for some fresh air and stay outdoors. Vondelpark, Amsterdam’s biggest centrally located park, is an excellent place to start.

While there, be on the lookout for tropical bright green parakeets that took up residence in the park over five decades ago. Their proliferation bewildered scientists and laymen alike. They were imported in the 1960s to brighten the aviaries of wealthy Dutchmen, and over the early years of their encaged life many escaped and adapted to urban life in the cold of Europe. This just goes to show how brilliantly adaptive nature is. Their presence has, however, become a source of noisy debate. To their decriers, the parakeets are alien invaders who leave behind heaps of droppings, a sordid sight that one shouldn’t have to endure in Amsterdam, and whose constant chatter ruins Sunday morning lie-ins. To their advocates, they’re beautiful, cheerful reminders of warmer climes during cold grey winter. Whichever position you side with, you’d be well advised not to feed them; if you do, you risk a 70 euro fine.

Its telling Humania, Fenomena, Technium, Energetica, and Elementa exhibition floors and halls may overwhelm you, but NEMO’s userfriendly website www.nemosciencemuseum.nl will help you make an itinerary of sorts of your entire visit. Although NEMO targets both children and adults, at The Studio, NEMO’s off-site location for adults at the Marineterrein, a curious exhibition opened on 8th June − Energy Junkies. Tackling our energy addiction, fossil fuel dependence, and the effects of our energy consumption on climate change, it invites us to reduce our energy consumption levels, which will help save and protect the only home we know and have − Earth.

Regardless of your choice − whether it’s taking a boat ride or a walk along the streets of Amsterdam, strolling in one of its biggest central parks or visiting a museum − you’re bound to have a fabulous time. You’re in Amsterdam after all, so enjoy it. 

ublin je u svako doba godine dobar odabir, no posebno ljeti. Ova energična, šarmantna, multikulturalna metropola, u kojoj je svaki osmi stanovnik porijeklom stranac, već u svibnju zasja posebnim sjajem. Irska je općenito poznata po kiši i ćudljivom vremenu, no kako je nekoć govorio poznati komičar Hal Roach: Znaš da je stiglo ljeto kada kiša zatopli.

Suncu se u Dublinu nikad ne treba previše nadati, no posljednjih godina dulji dani donose i znatno ugodnije vrijeme. Iako onamo zasigurno nećete otputovati radi kupanja i drugih morskih radosti, lokalci itekako uživaju u izležavanju na plažama, a organiziraju se i brojna ljetna plivačka natjecanja na moru i u rijeci Liffey.

No ostavimo sunčanje za neka druga odredišta i posvetimo se čarima Dublina.

Gastronomska scena grada u posljednjih je nekoliko godina u punom cvatu. Tako, primjerice, u restorančiću Klaw, koji se nalazi u poznatoj četvrti Temple Bar, možete kušati vrhunske, svježe plodove mora, a posebno kamenice koje pred vama termički obrađuju let lampom. Ely’s Bar najstarija je vinoteka u Dublinu, a

može se podičiti i vinskim podrumom smještenim u starim gradskim katakombama. Zahvaljujući njihovoj obiteljskoj mesnici, ondje se za razumnu cijenu možete počastiti preukusnim burgerima i poznatim irskim mesnim pitama. Ljubiteljima kave i čaja svidjet će se Bewley’s Grafton Street, koji nudi ponajbolji izbor čajeva u Dublinu i vrlo ugodno ozračje. Naravno, nezaobilazan je i Guinness Storehouse, jedna od najposjećenijih atrakcija u Europi. Čak i ako niste ljubitelji Guinnessa, koji mnogi smatraju tekućim obrokom, na ovom ćete zanimljivome mjestu doznati štošta o vrstama piva, povijesti grada, a i kušati tradicionalne specijalitete.

Ljeto u Dublinu obiluje i raznim festivalima i događanjima.

Festival znatiželje, koji ove godine slavi desetu obljetnicu, prava je proslava znanosti, umjetnosti i tehnologije, a održava se svake godine u srpnju. Nudi brojne aktivnosti i programe za cijelu obitelj i za odrasle, a predstavlja najnovija dostignuća u tehnologiji, dizajnu i umjetnosti na zabavan, zanimljiv i interaktivan način. Početkom srpnja Festival Longitude okupit će brojna zvučna imena glazbene scene, a tijekom ljeta održat će se i brojni pojedinačni koncerti za svačiji ukus, od Olivije Rodrigo do Duran Duran.

Ako vas ondje ipak svlada ljetna fjaka i poželite se negdje ispružiti, spas ćete pronaći u jednome od brojnih dublinskih parkova. Phoenix Park navodno je najveći zatvoreni javni park u nekoj europskoj metropoli. St. Stephen’s Green vjerojatno je najpoznatiji (danas po ljepoti, a nekoć po tomu što su ondje u 17. stoljeću spaljivali vještice), no u njegovoj se neposrednoj blizini nalazi Iveagh Gardens, ljepši od svojeg razvikanog susjeda, a svakako manje posjećen jer je zbog ograđenosti zidinama manje uočljiv.

Bilo da volite skrivene zelene kutke ili bogat noćni život, Dublin za svakoga svojega posjetitelja ima asa u rukavu. 

ublin is a great choice any time of the year, but especially in the summer. This effervescent, charming, multicultural metropolis − where one in eight citizens comes from abroad − gets a special glow up as early as in May. Ireland is well known for rain and moody weather, but as famous comedian Hal Roach used to say: You know it’s summer in Ireland when the rain gets warmer.

Dublin, but in recent years, the longer days have usually been followed by more pleasant weather. Although you surely will not travel there for the swimming and other joys of summer, the locals truly enjoy lounging on the beach and there are numerous swimming contests organized both at the sea and at the river Liffey.

But let us leave the sunbathing for other destinations and delve into the pleasures of Dublin.

In recent years, the gastronomy of the city has reached full bloom.

At Klaw, an oyster bar at the well-known Temple Bar district, you can try magnificent sea food, especially oysters that they blowtorch before your very eyes. Ely’s Bar is the oldest wine place in Dublin, and it has a wine cellar located in a vault underneath the city. Thanks to their family’s butcher, you can treat yourself to tasty burgers and Irish meat pies at a reasonable price. Coffee and tea enthusiasts will love Bewley’s Grafton Street, which offers a wide selection of teas and a pleasant atmosphere. Of course, you can’t miss the Guinness Storehouse, one of the most frequented attractions in Europe. Even if you are not a fan of Guinness, which many consider a liquid meal, this interesting spot will tell you plenty about different types of beer and city history, and you can also try traditional specialties there.

Summer in Dublin abounds in festivals and events. The Festival of Curiosity, which is marking its tenth anniversary this year, is a true celebration of science, art, and technology and takes place every July. It encompasses numerous activities and programs for families and adults, and it presents the latest in technology, design, and art in a fun, interesting, interactive way. In early July, the Longitude Festival will feature an impressive line-up, while numerous concerts will take place throughout the summer, from Olivia Rodrigo to Duran Duran, catering to everyone’s taste.

If you do get worn down by the summer heat and wish to lie down somewhere, you’ll find refuge in one of the many parks in Dublin.

Phoenix Park is said to be the largest enclosed public park in a European capital. St. Stephen’s Green is probably the best known

(today for its appeal, but in the past, for the fact that they used to burn witches there in the 17th century), but in its vicinity you will find Iveagh Gardens, a park much lovelier than its more prominent neighbour, and with fewer visitors since its enclosure makes it less noticeable.

Whether you are more inclined to lounging in the grass or basking in nightlife, Dublin has an ace up its sleeve for everyone. 

Na 118 četvornih kilometara grada Dublina živi nešto više od pola milijuna stanovnika. Ime vuče iz staroga gaelskog jezika; Dubh Linn ili Crna bara nekoć je bilo jezero u kojemu su Vikinzi sidrili brodove. U gradu koji je poznat po kiši u siječnju će vas dočekati prosječna temperatura od 5, a u srpnju od 17 Celzijevih stupnjeva. Dublin je ujedno i jedna od najmlađih metropola − naime, procjenjuje se da je 50 posto stanovnika grada mlađe od 25 godina.

A bit over half a million inhabitants found their home in 118 square kilometres of Dublin. Its name comes from Old Gaelic; Dubh Linn or Black Pool used to be a lake where the Vikings moored their ships. The city known for rain will welcome you at an average of 5 degrees Celsius in the winter and 17 degrees Celsius in the summer. Dublin is also one of the youngest capitals − it is estimated that around 50 percent of the citizens is under the age of 25.

2022 EUROPEAN WATER POLO CHAMPIONSHIP

Besides football, water polo is the oldest Olympic sport, and has been since the Summer Olympics in Paris in 1900. It’s one of the most physically demanding sports by many standards, and in Croatia it’s one of Croatia’s national and by far the most successful sports. As many as 28 medals won in the 30 years of Croatia’s independence speak volumes! Croatia’s also the only country in the world that has won a medal consecutively from 7 world water polo championships. In a nutshell, Croatia’s a global superpower in water polo! The history of water polo is long and strong in Croatia, particularly in Split, the cradle HVS/CROWP

The city where the first-ever water polo match was played in Croatia in 1908 will be hosting the crème de la crème of European and world water polo at the end of this summer. Featuring modular pools in the EUROPSKO VATERPOLSKO PRVENSTVO 2022.

Ljetni zanos uvijek dolazi u pratnji zvukova glazbe, a u Zagrebu će se ovog ljeta ti zvukovi smjestiti na pozornice brojnih glazbenih koncerata i festivala. Svjetski poznati festivali dozivaju domaće i strane posjetitelje na jezero Jarun, gdje kreiraju oazu plesa i dobrog raspoloženja. Možda ste ipak ljubitelji klasične glazbe? Onda je tu Zagreb Classic, festival koji odzvanja nježnim notama pod vedrim ljetnim nebom na jednom od najljepših gradskih trgova − Trgu kralja Tomislava.

A melodije koncertne sezone obilježit će neka od najvećih imena u svijetu glazbe: Zucchero, Placebo, Simple Minds, Whitesnake, Steel Panther, Kiss, The Pixies, Diana Krall i 2Cellos − žanrovi su brojni, a zabava je zajamčena.

Ovogodišnji programi pozivaju vas da otvorite svoja srca radosti, bezbrižnosti i čaroliji.

Maskirana lica u sklopu Zagrebačkog vremeplova otkrivaju vam događaje iz burne gradske prošlosti, dok vas izvođači koje je okupio ulični festival Cest is d’Best vode u svijet zabave, plesa, razigranosti i šarenila.

Naravno, ako je ljeto doba zabave i dobrog raspoloženja, mora biti i odlične hrane koja će sve te pozitivne emocije smjestiti ravno na naša nepca.

Mali piknik vas poziva da degustirate okuse lokalnih proizvođača na dekama u parku Bele IV., a ukusne zalogajčiće pronaći ćete i ako zavirite u program Dvorišta gornjogradskih kuća i palača.

Tako će u sklopu programa Mali Zagreb i Okolo svaki skriveni kutak dobro poznatih zagrebačkih lokacija postati domaćin šarmantnim minijaturama i neobičnim umjetničkim djelima. Finale ljetnog artističkog duha dolazi u rujnu, i to u obliku Artupunkture, umjetničko-društvenog tretmana koji zaključuje ljetnu, a otvara jesensku sezonu umjetničkih događanja.

icture a laid-back and light summer atmosphere. The city’s playful, and a cheerful rhythm is filling its streets.

The sun relentlessly reminds you that it’s time for pleasure, time to take a break from all the worries you’ve had during the year, time to enjoy sipping at a cold drink in the shade of a tree or on a charming cafe terrace, time for a refreshing swim at lakes Bundek or Jarun.

And in the evening, when the summer heat subsides, tanned faces, cheerful street musicians, colourful dresses, rapturous smiles... in a nutshell, the whole world takes to the streets and squares. − That exuberant time of the year has arrived. Zagreb’s stage is taken over by summer. More specifically, by Summer BUZZG, the Zagreb Tourist Board’s new summer campaign, which promotes Zagreb as a summer destination packed with events and outdoor festivals − says Martina Bienenfeld, CEO of the Zagreb Tourist Board.

Summer’s rapture always comes accompanied by the sounds of music. In Zagreb, the sounds of summer will be played on the stages of many music concerts and festivals. World-famous festivals are inviting both local and foreign visitors to Lake

Jarun, where they’re creating an oasis of dance and good mood. If, however, you’re a fan of classical music, then your choice should be Zagreb Classic, a festival that resonates with gentle notes under the clear summer sky on one of the most beautiful city squares − King Tomislav Square.

The concert season and its tunes will be marked by some of the biggest names in the world of music, names such as Zucchero, Placebo, Simple Minds, Whitesnake, Steel Panther, Kiss, The Pixies, Diana Krall, and 2Cellos. Many different genres which means that fun is guaranteed.

But the musical backdrop won’t stop there − dance rhythms pumped out from speakers and light acoustic guitar sounds will enhance the experience of numerous events and programmes throughout the city.

This year’s city programmes invite you to open your hearts to joy, easy-goingness, and magic. Characters from Zagreb’s history dressed in period costume will, by using the Zagreb Time Machine, take you back in time to the city’s turbulent history, while street artists, performers, and musicians gathered to perform at the Cest is d’Best festival will be introducing you to a world of fun, dance, playfulness, and vibrancy.

Naturally enough, summer’s fun and good

vibes must be accompanied by great food.

By transforming all these positive emotions into food, the Little Picnic is inviting you to taste the foods and flavours of local producers on picnic blankets in the Park of Bela IV. You’ll also come across delicious snacks if you take a peek into the Courtyards of Zagreb’s Upper Town houses and palaces, and its programme.

Zagreb entices you to explore its streets, and art couldn’t resist the invitation either.

As part of the Little Zagreb and OKOLO // around programme, every nook and cranny of Zagreb’s well-known locations is hosting brilliant miniatures and extraordinary works of art. The grand finale of Zagreb’s summer artistic spirit is taking place in September − Artupunktura, an artistic and social phenomenon project, which is closing Zagreb’s summer and opening Zagreb’s autumn season of arts and cultural events.

So, are you ready?

It’s time to take a break, to be playful and spontaneous, and to laze about. Summer has arrived in Zagreb! 

Više od 200 stranih novinara i snimateljskih ekipa pratilo je događaj uživo. WRC Croatia Rally uživo se prenosio iz Hrvatske u više od 150 zemalja svijeta, a WRC redovito svake godine prati više od 865 milijuna gledatelja.

WRC Croatia Rally održan je na 20 atraktivnih brzih staza kroz pet hrvatskih županija − Zagrebačku, Karlovačku, Krapinsko-zagorsku, Primorsko-goransku i Varaždinsku županiju. Svečani start, cilj i Servisni park nalazili su se u Zagrebu.

Prema očekivanjima organizatora ove je godine zabilježen rekordan broj gledatelja

na jednom od najvećih sportskih događaja koji je u Hrvatskoj ikad organiziran. Ljubitelji oktanskih uzbuđenja mogli su vidjeti i revolucionarnu novu generaciju hibridnih vozila Rally1, koja je premijerno predstavljena početkom sezone.

Zahvaljujući odličnoj organizaciji sportskih i popratnih sadržaja utrke, uključujući i zaštitu okoliša, Hrvatska je više puta ista-

than 150 countries worldwide. It is worth noting that the WRC is regularly watched by over 865 million people each year.

The WRC Croatia Rally was held at 20 attractive special stages across five of Croatia’s counties − specifically, the Zagreb County, the Karlovac County, the KrapinaZagorje County, the Primorje-Gorski Kotar County, and the Varaždin County − while the ceremonial starting, the finishing line, and the service park were located in Zagreb. As expected by the organisers, a record number of spectators attended this year’s rally, one of the biggest sporting events to have ever been organised in Croatia. Fans of octane thrills could also see the latest generation of hybrid Rally1 vehicles, which premiered at the beginning of the season.

Thanks to the excellent organisation of the race itself and the accompanying events, including the environmental protection measures taken, Croatia has been repeatedly highlighted as a refreshing and pleasant surprise in the WRC calendar. As a result,

roatia has once again demonstrated that it’s got the skills and qualities to host the best rally crews in the world, and one of the most watched sporting events. The best rally stars − a total of 63 crews from 24 countries − covered over 1,600 km on 20 special stages, and were supported by fans from all over the world, while the mechanics of the world’s best teams demonstrated their knowledge and skills to audiences at the Service Park located in Zagreb.

The WRC Croatia Rally 2022 was one of the top 20 most watched sporting events in the world. It was also the biggest sports show, and one of the most attractive sports events in Croatia, as well as the biggest ever rally race held in Croatia.

thanks to having created an excellent overall impression, the organiser was offered a three-year contract for the organisation of this octane event. Besides the rally’s many partners − local government units, five counties hosting the speed tests and their respective tourist boards, the Zagreb Tourist Board, and the Croatian National Tourist Board − the importance and success of this event has also been recognised by the Government of the Republic of Croatia, and the City of Zagreb, both of which decided to co-fund the organisation of the race in not just 2022, but also in the coming years. We’re looking forward to seeing you next year! 

OSIJEK

Osječka Tvrđa − utvrda znanja, kulture i zabave

Zidine Tvrđe i Vodena vrata Osijek Citadel’s walls and Watergate

Z

a većinu Osijek je mirni grad na Dravi. Neki ga pak nazivaju gradom kulture, secesije i baroka, a drugima je on dobro poznat kao grad studenata i noćne zabave. Često ga opisuju i kao grad parkova, biciklista i sporta, ali i kao grad toplih domaćina. Povijesno gledano on je grad piva, ali i urbano srce regije okruženo vinorodnim područjima Slavonije i Baranje.

Osijek se može podičiti svojom burnom i zanimljivom prošlošću.

U urbanističkoj strukturi grada izdvajaju se kulturno povijesne cjeline Tvrđa, Gornji grad i Donji grad, među kojima je povijesno i turistički najatraktivnija barokna utvrda Tvrđa. Ovaj spomenik kulture nulte kategorije nastao je početkom 18. st. po uzoru na nizinske nizozemske utvrde te je nekoć bio vojno središte Slavonije, dok je danas srce kulture, obrazovanja i zabave. Zasigurno najprepoznatljivija građevina 18. stoljeća u Osijeku i simbol Trga Svetog Trojstva u Tvrđi jest zavjetni kužni pil. S upečatljivom renesansno-baroknom zgradom Rektorata Sveučilišta Josipa Jurja Strossmayera, nekadašnjom palačom Generalkomande, krasi novčanicu od 200 kuna.

Nekada je ovaj trg bio vinski trg − Weinplatz − središte društvenih događanja onoga doba, o čemu svjedoči i zanimljiva priča o

2/2022

tzv. bećarini. Bećarina ili taxa vagabundorum bila je svojevrstan porez u 18. stoljeću za one (uglavnom vojnike) koji su se na ulicama Tvrđe zatekli nakon 21 sat jer se takoreći zbog njih morala održavati noćna rasvjeta. Da je Osijek nastavio tradiciju uživanja u vinu, svjedoči i činjenica da je danas dom čak devet vrsnih vinara čije su prepoznatljive sorte karakteristične za erdutsku, baranjsku i druge plodonosne vinske regije.

Zbog svojeg neupitnog šarma Tvrđa je često čarobna kulisa za mnoge manifestacije. Osječko ljeto kulture, Sajam antikviteta, Večeri vina i umjetnosti, HeadOnEast, Advent u Osijeku samo su neka od događanja koja dodatno ožive dvorišta, trgove i ulice barokne dame koja je svojom bogatom ugostiteljskom ponudom postala osječko središte zabave i noćnog života. Osječka Tvrđa svoje posjetitelje u svako godišnje doba očekuje široko raširenih ruku i poziva da se odmore, zaborave na svakodnevne probleme i otkriju sve čari koje im nudi. 

F

or most, Osijek is a peaceful town on the Drava River. Some call it a town of culture, Art Nouveau and the Baroque, while others refer to it as a student and party town. It’s also often described as a town of parks, cyclists, and sports, as well as a town where you’ll always be warmly welcomed by its hospitable residents.

Historically, it’s a town of beer, and the urban centre surrounded by the wine-producing regions of Slavonia and Baranja.

Osijek takes great pride in its turbulent and interesting history. The urban structure of Osijek features the cultural and historical complexes of the Citadel, the Upper Town, and the Lower Town. Of the three, the Baroque Citadel is historically and touristically the most interesting and most attractive. Modelled on Dutch lowland fortifications, and enjoying state protection of the highest level, this cultural monument was erected in the 18th century. The Citadel was once the military centre of Slavonia; today, it’s a stronghold of knowledge, culture, and entertainment. Osijek’s most recognisable landmark from the 18th century and a symbol of the Holy Trinity Square within the Citadel’s complex is the Votive Statue of the Holy Trinity. It adorns the HRK 200 banknote with the impressive Renaissance-Baroque Rectorate building of the Josip Juraj Strossmayer University of Osijek, which was formerly the Palace of the Slavonian General Command.

This square was once called the wine square − specifically, Weinplatz.

It was the then centre of social life, to which an interesting story is tied;

namely, the story of wine tax. More specifically, in the 18th century, a wine tax was introduced in the Citadel called bećarina or taxa vagabundorum. To light and maintain the street lamps on the square at night, this wine tax was collected from all those who happened to be out in the streets of the Citadel past 9 pm, most of whom were soldiers. That Osijek has continued the tradition of enjoying wine is evidenced by the fact that, today, it is home to as many as 9 excellent winemakers who produce wine from varieties characteristic of Erdut, Baranja and other wine-producing regions in the surroundings of Osijek.

Thanks to its undisputed charm, the Citadel is often used as a magical backdrop to many events. The Osijek Summer of Culture, Osijek’s Antiques Fair, the Wine and Art Evenings, HeadOnEast, and the Advent in Osijek are just some of the events that bring to life the courtyards, squares, and streets of Osijek’s Baroque lady that has, thanks to its many cafes and restaurants, become Osijek’s centre of entertainment and nightlife. Regardless of the season, Osijek’s Citadel invites you with open arms to take a break, forget about your everyday worries, and discover all its charms. 

omalo skeptični, prihvatili smo poziv prijatelja iz Osječkobaranjske županije da posjetimo njihov kraj. Iako su se za obiteljskim vijećem isprva mogli čuti komentari poput: Slavonija? Pa tamo su samo traktori..., raspoloženje se počelo mijenjati kad je najmlađa pokazala vizual koji je nedavno pronašla u bespućima interneta: Ipak nije sve ravno, glasila je duhovita poruka na fotografiji ravnice urešene dvjema čapljama od slame.

Desetak dana kasnije i dva sata vožnje istočnije, naša se ekspedicija našla u slavonskoj metropoli − Osijeku. Po mnogočemu ovo je idealan grad: ni premalen ni prevelik. Podjednako će vas zaokupljati osjećaj kozmopolitizma i uspavane, s prirodom stopljene ležernosti. Šetnja širokim perivojima između barokne Tvrđe i gradskog središta podsjeća na najšarmantnije europske parkove. Ugođaj je osobito fotogeničan duž Europske avenije i tzv. osječkog secesijskog niza te kod prekrasne konkatedrale sv.

Petra i Pavla, a i tijekom šetnje promenadom pokraj Drave.

Osijek je grad koji živi sa svojom rijekom. Ovdje smo pronašli neke od najzanimljivijih osječkih atrakcija: staru vodenicu, kompu (skelu) kojom se možete prevesti na drugu obalu u posjet ZOO-u, najvećem u Hrvatskoj. Poseban je doživljaj i vožnja izletničkim gliserom Old Town. Posjetili smo i Erdut, uživali u ambijentu tamošnjih vinarija, prošetali tunelom od loze i uslikali selfie s jednom od najvećih bačava na svijetu. Zavirili smo u tajnoviti dvorac Adamovich Cseh, zaustavili se u čuvenom katoličkom svetištu u Aljmašu, a u Dalju obišli rodnu kuću matematičara Milutina Milankovića.

Putovanje istokom nastavljamo u Baranji, pokrajini vina i kulena.

U Kneževim Vinogradima nalazi se beljski podrum − najveći hrvatski povijesni vinski podrum, star preko 500 godina. Vinsku kulturu Baranje na prekrasan način dočaravaju i posjeti malim vinarijama − Josića, Kolara, Szabe, Kalazića, Svijetlih dvora i posebno obitelji Gerštmajer, koja traje već četiri generacije!

Među mnogim čarobnim mjestima Baranje ističu se i Ulica zaboravljenog vremena, smještena u dvorištu čuvenog restorana Baranjska kuća u Karancu; galerija Stari mlin i vrhunska keramička radionica Asztalos u Suzi; nekoliko nezaobilaznih proizvođača kulena (npr. OPG Matijević u Suzi, OPG Dobrovac u Kneževim Vinogradima). Svratili smo i na dunavski vidikovac smješten u podnožju spomenika Batinskoj bitci. A zatim biser nad biserima − najstariji park prirode u Hrvatskoj i jedna od posljednjih europskih iskonskih močvara, Kopački rit. Suvremeni posjetiteljski centar, šetnica Bijelog lopoča, ladanjski dvorac u Tikvešu, vožnja brodom kopačkim rukavcima… sve je to tako svjetsko a naše.

Spomenimo još slavonske bisere − Našice, Valpovo, Donji Miholjac, feričansko vinogorje i, dakako, Đakovo. Iako smo znali za đakovačke konje lipicance, iznenadila nas je činjenica da tradicija ovdašnje državne ergele seže pet stoljeća u prošlost;

02

da se đakovačka misna vina u idiličnim nasadima Mandićevca i Trnave gaje već tristo godina i da je prihod od njihove prodaje sponzorirao velik dio od sedam milijuna cigli ugrađenih u veličanstvenu katedralu sv. Petra − najmlađu đakovačku atrakciju (140 joj je godina tek).

Grabeći prema Zagrebu, zapitali smo se: Kad ćemo sve ovo ponoviti? 

lightly sceptical, we’ve accepted an invitation from friends from the Osijek-Baranja County to visit the region. Even though the first comments voiced at the family meeting were: Slavonia?!

All they’ve got are fields and tractors..., our spirits started to lift when the youngest family member showed us a photo she had recently found in the vast wilderness of the Internet. See, not all of it are fields and flatlands, she commented humorously the photo of a plain featuring two land art straw herons.

Ten days later and after having driven east for two hours, our expedition arrived at Slavonia’s capital − Osijek. In many ways, it’s an ideal town; it’s neither too small nor too big. You’ll be mesmerised by the town’s cosmopolitanism on the one hand, and its easy-going laidbackness fused with nature on the other. A walk through the wide park gardens between Osijek’s baroque Citadel and the town centre is reminiscent of Europe’s most charming parks. The cityscape is very photographically appealing along the European Avenue, along Osijek’s so-called Art Nouveau series of houses, at the beautiful Co-Cathedral of St. Peter and Paul, and along the Drava riverside promenade.

Osijek’s a town that lives alongside its river. And it is here that we found some of Osijek’s most interesting attractions: an old mill, a river ferry called Kompa that’ll take you across the river to the Osijek Zoo, the biggest one in Croatia. Taking a ride on the Old Town excursion speedboat is a truly special experience. We also visited Erdut, where we enjoyed the ambience of its local wineries, and where we walked through a vine tunnel and took selfies next to one of the biggest barrels in the world. We also peeked into the mysterious AdamovichCseh castle, stopped by the famous Catholic sanctuary in the village of Aljmaš, and in the village of Dalj we visited the birthplace of mathematician Milutin Milanković.

We continued our journey east to Baranja, an empire of wine and the Baranja kulen salami. In the village of Kneževi Vinogradi, we stopped by the Belje Wine Cellar, Croatia’s biggest wine cellar which is over 500 years old. Our visits to small wineries, such as Josić, Kolar, Szabo, Kalazić, Svijetli Dvori, and particularly the Gerštmajers’ vineyard which has been in the family for four generations, gave us a great taste of Baranja’s wine culture. Amongst Baranja’s many other

magical places, a number of them should be singled out, such as the Street of Forgotten Times, which is located in the courtyard of the famous Baranjska Kuća (Baranja House in translation) restaurant in Karanac, the Stari Mlin (Old Mill in translation) Gallery and the brilliant Asztalos Ceramic Workshop in the village of Suza, a number of Baranja kulen salami producers, such as the Matijević Family Farm in the village of Suza, and the Petar Dobrovac Family Farm in the village of Kneževi Vinogradi. We also stopped at a lookout point on the Danube at the foot of the Battle of Batina Monument. And then there’s the gem of all gems, Croatia’s oldest nature park, and one of Europe’s last and oldest wetlands − Kopački Rit. The nature park’s modern visitor centre, the White Water Lily Boardwalk, the manor house in Tikveš, a boat ride along and through the backwaters of the nature park... these are all world-class experiences in our small country.

The towns of Našice, Valpovo, and Donji Miholjac, the vineyards of Feričanci, and the town of Đakovo are an absolute must, of course.

Even though we knew about Đakovo’s Lipizzaner horses, finding out that the State Stud Farm in Đakovo has been running for five centuries did come as a surprise. We also found out that the sacramental wines from Đakovo and the region have been cultivated for three hundred years in the idyllic vineyards of Mandićevac and Trnava. We were dumbfounded by the fact that profits from the sale of Đakovo’s sacramental wine sponsored a large portion of the seven million bricks used to build the youngest attraction in Đakovo, an attraction which is only 140 years old − the magnificent Cathedral of St. Peter.

On our way back to Zagreb, we all wondered when we’d visit Slavonia again. 

Croatia is close not only because of its geographic position, but also because of its network of airports and the top quality services provided by Croatia Airlines, its

national carrier, as well as other airliners.

Also, due to its network of highways and semi-motorways, Croatia is closer than ever. If you have decided to spend your vacation on any one of the numerous islands in Croatia, even the most distant ones, it will take less than 2 hours by ferry or hydrofoil from the mainland.

NOVOSTI NEWS

Ovoga ljeta povezujemo Hrvatsku i 21 europsko odredište Mreža međunarodnih i domaćih letova tijekom ljetne sezone prilagođena je tržišnoj potražnji za uslugom zračnog prijevoza, što se u kompaniji kontinuirano prati.

Povezujemo Zračnu luku Split s ukupno 18 europskih odredišta. U lipnju smo uveli pet novih sezonskih linija: Split − Amsterdam, Split − Bukurešt, Split − Dublin, Split - Milano i Split − Stockholm.

Ponovno ćemo letjeti na sezonskoj liniji Split − Prag koja je prvi put uvedena lani, a Split je ove sezone izravno povezan i s Atenom, Bečom, Berlinom, Düsseldorfom, Frankfurtom, Kopenhagenom, Londonom (ZL Heathrow i ZL Gatwick), Lyonom, Münchenom, Parizom, Rimom i Zürichom.

Iz Zagreba su planirani redoviti međunarodni letovi u 15 europskih odredišta.

Obnavljaju se sezonski letovi Zagreb − Barcelona, a Zagreb je izravno povezan i s Amsterdamom, Atenom, Bečom, Bruxellesom, Dublinom, Frankfurtom, Kopenhagenom, Londonom (ZL Heat-

hrow), Münchenom, Parizom, Rimom (via Split), Sarajevom, Skopljem i Zürichom.

Izravno povezujemo Dubrovnik, najjužniju hrvatsku zračnu luku, međunarodnim letovima u Atenu, Frankfurt, München, Pariz, Rim i Zürich.

Ponovno su uvedeni sezonski letovi Rijeka − München, a novost je i uspostava cjelogodišnjih međunarodnih letova na liniji Osijek − München od 2. svibnja ove godine. Osim širenja međunarodne mreže letova, nastavljamo osiguravati i zračnu povezanost hrvatskih gradova i regija svojim letovima u domaćem redovitom prometu u sklopu kojeg su planirani letovi između sedam hrvatskih zračnih luka (Zagreb, Split, Dubrovnik, Osijek, Zadar, Pula i Brač). Najviše letova planiramo obaviti na linijama Zagreb − Split i Zagreb − Dubrovnik (u prosjeku do 5 letova dnevno), a ponovno su planirani letovi na sezonskim linijama Osijek − Split i Osijek − Dubrovnik te Zagreb − Brač.

Planirani red letenja podložan je promjenama, ovisno o razvoju epidemiološke i sigurnosne situacije u Hrvatskoj i svijetu.

We’re connecting Croatia with 21 European destinations this summer Croatia Airlines’ network of both international and domestic flights during the summer season has been tailored to meet the market demand for air transport services, which the company continuously monitors.

We’re connecting Split Airport with as many as 18 European destinations. In June, we’re introducing five new seasonal routes: Split− Amsterdam, Split−Bucharest, Split−Dublin, Split−Milan, and Split−Stockholm. Also, we’re reintroducing our seasonal flights between Split and Prague, which were first introduced last year. This summer season, Split will also be connected directly with Athens, Vienna, Berlin, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Copenhagen, London (Heathrow Airport, and Gatwick Airport), Lyon, Munich, Paris, Rome, and Zurich.

From Zagreb, scheduled international flights to 15 European destinations are planned.

Besides renewing our seasonal flights between Zagreb and Barcelona, we’ll be connecting Zagreb directly with Amsterdam, Athens, Vienna, Brussels, Dublin, Frankfurt, Copenhagen, London (Heathrow Airport), Munich, Paris, Rome (via Split), Sarajevo, Skopje, and Zurich. We’ll also be directly connecting Dubrovnik with six European destinations − namely, Athens, Frankfurt, Munich, Paris, Rome, and Zurich.

Croatia Airlines is also reintroducing its seasonal flights between Rijeka and Munich.

Another novelty is the introduction of yearround international flights between Osijek and Munich, which were introduced on the 2nd May this year. Besides expanding our international network of flights, Croatia Airlines is also continuing to maintain the air connectivity of Croatia’s cities and regions by offering scheduled domestic flights to seven Croatian airports − namely, Zagreb, Split, Dubrovnik, Osijek, Zadar, Pula, and Brač. We’re planning to operate most domestic flights between Zagreb and Split and vice versa, and between Zagreb and Dubrovnik and vice versa; more specifically, up to 5 flights a day on average. Additionally, the company is also planning to operate seasonal flights between Osijek and Split, between Osijek and Dubrovnik, and between Zagreb and Brač.

The planned flight timetable is subject to change, and depends on the development of the public health and safety, and security situation in both Croatia and the world.

Croatia Airlines i Lufthansa Technik obilježili 30 godina uspješne suradnje Croatia Airlines, hrvatski nacionalni avioprijevoznik i Lufthansa Technik, svjetski lider za usluge održavanja zrakoplova, zrakoplovnih motora i aviokomponenata, obilježili su 30. obljetnicu uspješne poslovne suradnje na području održavanja zrakoplova, odnosno 30 godina izvrsnosti koju su zajedno unapređivali i razvijali. Ujedinjujući snagu svojih brendova, znanje svojih zaposlenika i njihove stručne sposobnosti, ove dvije kompanije već 30 godina uspješno surađuju na području održavanja zrakoplova, a time i sigurnosti letenja. Lufthansa Technik kontinuirano održava zrakoplovne komponente i motore za flotu Croatia

Airlinesa, a stručnjaci Tehničkog sektora Croatia Airlinesa u sklopu navedene suradnje obavili su više od 210 velikih tehničkih pregleda na zrakoplovima Deutsche Lufthanse.

Temeljem znanja preuzetih od vrhunskih stručnjaka Lufthanse Technik, Tehnički sektor Croatia Airlinesa postao je centar izvrsnosti u kojem se obavljaju i najzahtjevniji tehnički radovi na zrakoplovima inozemnih prijevoznika kao i na vlastitoj floti, te je prepoznat kao pouzdan partner diljem svijeta.

Podsjetimo, Croatia Airlines je 1992. godine od njemačke Lufthanse nabavio tri zrakoplova Boeing 737-200 te je pritom potpisan ugovor Total Technical Support (TTS) za kupljene zrakoplove.

Suradnja s Lufthansom Technik nastavljena je tijekom godina potpisivanjem mnogih ugovora za održavanje aviokomponenata različitih tipova zrakoplova u floti Croatia Airlinesa (Airbus, Dash 8-Q400) te je kontinuirano unapređivana i proširivana s ciljem ostvarivanja izvrsnosti. Odlaskom prvog naraštaja inspektora Croatia Airlinesa na rad u Shannon Aerospace 2000. godine počela je i razmjena zaposlenika, koja je nastavljena i narednih godina.

Godine 2001. Croatia Airlines postao je ponosni nositelj certifikata

JAR 145, odnosno ovlaštenja za samostalno obavljanje baznog i linijskog održavanja inozemnih zrakoplova u svojem tehničkom središtu u Zagrebu, a iste godine obavljena su i prva dva C-pregleda na Lufthansinim zrakoplovima Airbus A320. Razina i opseg usluga tijekom godina su se povećavali, a 2008. i 2015. godine povećani su i interni kapaciteti za održavanje zrakoplova. Aktivnosti nije nedostajalo ni u vrijeme korona-krize, kad je s Lufthansom Technik potpisan i dodatak svim ugovorima o održavanju aviokomponenata.

Croatia Airlines and Lufthansa Technik celebrate 30 years of successful collaboration Croatia Airlines, Croatia’s flag carrier, and Lufthansa Technik, a world leader in the technical maintenance of aircraft, aircraft parts and engines, celebrated the 30th anniversary of successful business collaboration in the field of aircraft maintenance, that is, 30 years of excellence that they’ve been developing and advancing together. By the two brands having combined forces with the knowledge of their employees and their professional skills, the two companies have been successfully collaborating for 30 years in the field of aircraft maintenance and flight safety. Within the framework of this collaboration, Lufthansa Technik has continuously maintained aircraft parts and engines for Croatia Airlines’ fleet, while experts from the Technical Sector of Croatia Airlines have performed more than 210 major technical inspections on Deutsche Lufthansa aircraft.

Thanks to the knowledge Croatia Airlines acquired from Lufthansa Technik’s top-class experts, our Croatia Airlines Technical Sector has become a centre of excellence, where some of the most demanding technical work is performed on the aircraft of foreign carriers and our own fleet. Our Technical Sector is recognised as a reliable partner worldwide.

It is worth recalling that, in 1992, Croatia Airlines purchased three Boeing 737-200 aircraft from Deutsche Lufthansa. At the same time, a Total Technical Support (TTS) contract was signed for the purchased aircraft. Collaboration with Lufthansa Technik has continued over the years by many contracts having been signed for the maintenance of aircraft parts of various types of aircraft in the fleet of Croatia Airlines (Airbus, Dash 8-Q400). Moreover, this collaboration has been continuously improved and expanded to achieve excellence. The arrival of the first generation of Croatia Airlines’ inspectors at Shannon Aerospace in 2000 marked the beginning of the exchange of employees, which continued in the following years.

In 2001, Croatia Airlines became the proud holder of a JAR 145 certificate authorisation, which allowed the company to independently perform base and line maintenance of aircraft of foreign carriers at its Technical Centre in Zagreb. In the same year, the first two C-checks were performed on Lufthansa’s Airbus A320 aircraft. The level and scope of service offered at the Technical Centre have increased over the years, and its in-house capacities for aircraft maintenance were increased on two occasions − first in 2008, and then in 2015. Activities did not come to a halt even during the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic, when contract addenda for the maintenance of aircraft parts were signed with Lufthansa Technik.

ko je suditi prema travanjskim prometnim podacima, Zračnu luku Split čeka jako dobra turistička sezona. Naime, ovogodišnji travanj sa 133 tisuće putnika čak je devet puta bolji od prošlogodišnjeg obilježenog pandemijom.

Svih 50 zračnih prijevoznika koji proteklih godina intenzivno prometuju u Zračnoj luci Split temeljem zadržanih povijesnih prava obnavljaju i šire mrežu svojih linija iz ukupno 90 europskih odredišta. Među njima valja istaknuti nacionalnog prijevoznika Croatia Airlines, koji Zračnoj luci Split osigurava posebno značajno cjelogodišnje povezivanje s europskim odredištima, a koji u ovoj turističkoj sezoni nudi izravne letove prema 18 europskih odredišta od kojih je pet novih: Amsterdam, Bukurešt, Dublin, Milano i Stockholm. Ukupni ponuđeni broj odredišta, letova i sjedala Croatia Airlinesa za Zračnu luku Split u ovoj sezoni čak je veći

udging by the traffic data from April this year, Split Airport is expecting a very good tourist season. More specifically, 133,000 passengers flying to Split this April is nine times better than during the pandemic last year. Removing and ending a good portion of the public health and safety measures has resonated with the public, and has come as a welcome relief and an open invitation to take all those missed trips over the past two years. This trend has had a particularly good effect on the tourism industry in the region of central Dalmatia, and has acted as an incentive for creating tourism products whose quality is higher and which are more eventful.

All 50 airlines which have signed contracts with Split Airport and which have been operating intensely at Split Airport in recent years have been restoring and expanding their network of flights from a total of 90 European destinations. From the airlines operating at Split Airport, Croatia’s flag carrier,

Croatia Airlines, should be singled out − from Split Airport, Croatia Airlines offers important year-round connections with European destinations; during this year’s tourist season, Croatia Airlines is offering direct flights to as many as 18 European destinations, five of which are new: Amsterdam, Bucharest, Dublin, Milan, and Stockholm. The total number of destinations, flights, and seats offered by Croatia Airlines to Split Airport this season is higher than in 2019, which was a record year. Apart from Croatia Airlines, the following carriers should be singled out judging by the number of seats they offer: easyJet, Eurowings, SAS, Wizz Air, Ryanair, Volotea, Vueling Airlines, British Airways, KLM, Condor, Norwegian Air Shuttle, Lufthansa, Jet2.com, Transavia France, Transavia, Iberia, Austrian Airlines, Edelweiss Air, Smartwings, Finnair.

In 2022, air traffic is expected to grow by at least 30% if no public health and safety challenges are faced, which means that passenger numbers could exceed two million. 

nego rekordne 2019. godine. Osim Croatia Airlinesa svakako valja istaknuti sljedeće najznačajnije prijevoznike po broju ponuđenih sjedala, a to su: easyJet, Eurowings, SAS, Wizz Air, Ryanair, Volotea, Vueling Airlines, British Airways, KLM, Condor, Norwegian, Lufthansa, Jet2.com, Transavia France, Transavia, Iberia, Austrian Airlines, Edelweiss, Smartwings, Finnair.

U 2022. godini očekuje se rast prometa viši od 30% ako ne bude novih epidemioloških i sigurnosnih izazova, tako da bi ukupni promet mogao premašiti dva milijuna putnika. 

BRINEMO O VAMA CARING FOR YOUR HEALTH

#CTNwecare Pomozite nam u očuvanju vašeg zdravlja i sigurnosti pridržavajući se sljedećih važnih uputa: - Započnite putovanje samo ako se osjećate zdravo. Imate li povišenu tjelesnu temperaturu, gubitak osjeta njuha i okusa, jaki kašalj i kratki dah te ako je vaše zdravstveno stanje loše molimo vas da odgodite svoje putovanje.

- U kabinu zrakoplova unesite što manje ručne prtljage kako biste smanjili fizički kontakt. Ponesite samo osobne i vrijedne stvari dozvoljene veličine (torbice, manje ruksake i torbe za prijenosna računala).

- Na svim našim letovima preporuča se nošenje vlastite medicinske maske preko usta i nosa.

- The wearing of medical face protective mask covering your mouth and nose is recommended on all our flights.

- Za svakog putnika osigurali smo vlažne maramice kojima možete prebrisati sjedalo (naslon, rukohvate, otvore za ventilaciju i sl.).

- Kad kašljete ili kišete, prekrijte usta i nos maramicom ili laktom.

- Izbjegavajte bespotrebno dodirivanje površina i korištenje otvora za ventilaciju.

- Na nekim međunarodnih letovima potrebno je prije leta ispuniti obrazac za prikupljanje podataka o putnicima (Passenger Locator Form ili Health Declaration Form), koji može biti u elektronskom ili papirnatom obliku. Ovaj obrazac služi u svrhu prikupljanja podataka o bliskim kontaktima putnika za kojeg je naknadnom dijagnostičkom obradom utvrđeno da boluje od bolesti COVID-19 te se u druge svrhe ne smije koristiti.

- Hand disinfectants are available in the lavatories of all our aircraft.

- We provide each passenger with wet wipes with which to wipe their seat (backrest, armrest, ventilation openings, etc.).

- While coughing or sneezing, make sure you cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or you cough or sneeze into your elbow.

- Avoid touching surfaces and using ventilation openings unless necessarily.

Croatia Airlines ima pravo izmijeniti navedene upute u skladu s epidemiološkom situacijom.

- You are required to complete either an electronic or a paper version of the Passenger Locator Form (PLF) or Health Declaration Form (HDF) prior to getting on some international flights.

PLFs and HDFs are used for the purpose of collecting information about the close contacts of a passenger who has been diagnosed with COVID-19 by subsequent diagnostic tests and procedures, and may not be used for other purposes.

- Passengers are strongly advised to contact, before their flight, the embassy of their country of origin, and/or visit the official website of relevant official authorities of all the countries that they are flying to or from.

- Most European countries have travel restrictions in place, including: the requirement to submit a completed Passenger Locator Form (PLF), quarantine, and mandatory COVID-19 testing for passengers, or COVID-19 vaccination certificates, or COVID-19 recovery certificates. Make sure that you regularly and frequently check the entry restrictions in place at your destination before your flight.

Croatia Airlines reserves the right to change these guidelines in response to changes in the public health and safety situation.

- While exiting the aircraft try to maintain social distancing.

- Putnicima savjetujemo da prije leta stupe u kontakt s veleposlanstvom svoje države i/ili posjete službene web stranice relevantnih službenih tijela svih država u koje/iz kojih putuju.

- Zbog trenutačne javnozdravstvene situacije ograničenja u putovanju često se mijenjaju. Većina europskih država provodi zaštitne mjere, uključujući obrasce za prikupljanje podataka o putnicima (Passenger Locator Form), karantenu i obvezu testiranja za putnike ili potvrde o cijepljenju ili potvrde o preboljenju bolesti COVID-19. Prije leta svakako redovito provjeravajte pravila za ulazak u zemlju odredišta.

- Kad izlazite iz zrakoplova nastojte držati minimalnu dopuštenu udaljenost.

2/2022

- Start your journey only if you feel healthy.

If you have a fever, if you’ve lost your sense of smell and taste, if you’ve got a bad cough or if you’re experiencing shortness of breath, and if your health is poor, please postpone your flight.

- Take as little hand luggage as possible into the passenger cabin to reduce physical contact. Take only personal items and valuables of the size allowed (handbags, smaller backpacks and laptop bags).

- U toaletima u svim našim zrakoplovima na raspolaganju su vam sredstva za dezinfekciju ruku.
