Croatia: Take Your Parents to Work Week

By SETH KUGEL

It was Take Your Parents to Work week at the Frugal Traveler, and you should see my office! Pine-covered islands jutting out from a stretch of the Adriatic that shifts from deep navy to aquamarine like a color-coded relief map; stone houses with red-tile roofs clustered improbably on the sides of mountains and along the edges of the harbors and swimmer-friendly coves filled with fishing boats. The company cafeteria's weekly special? The freshest fish, squid and octopus, with sides of local cheese and thin-sliced prsut (sounds like — and is like — prosciutto). And my Slavic office-mates are just about the nicest people I've ever worked with.

The only problem is, I can't get them to stop speaking Croatian.

Actually, that's not really true: the English skills and hospitality of the people in Croatia were enough to quickly and utterly charm my parents, the highly seasoned travelers Peter and Judy Kugel, who flew in from Boston to join me for Week 5 of my frugal Mediterranean tour. As for all Croatians being wonderful, I can only vouch for those on the Dalmatian Coast that includes the southern mainland and islands that seem chipped off it.
