Originally from Los Angeles in the United States, Daniel is hitchhiking from France to Vietnam.

During his adventure, Daniel stopped by Croatia where he spent a month hitchhiking around the country. He says it gave him the chance to see a more personal side of Croatia and the people, and learn about the culture.

Earlier this month. we shared his unforgettable experience in Slavonia when a 35-minute ride to Osijek turned into a three-day stay at a family home in Đakovo.

Daniel’s method of travel around Croatia has gave him the chance to meet people who gave him a first-hand insight into Croatia, the culture, customs and even some superstitions.

“If you have freckles on your face you will have a baby girl and if you go to a funeral pregnant you will have a pale, baby girl.”
