February 2009  

Dear Friends and Business Partners!
Every season of the year brings something special. It is hard to choose the nicest season because Zagreb – as every other city – is always beautiful in its own way. Now, when the days are getting longer and longer, we are all anxiously anticipating the awakening of nature, the excitement of being outdoors, and the opportunity to break away from our obligations and relax with a cappuccino on one of the many terraces in town.
