Hello everyone!! In connection with my previous post in this community, in which I told that I am Argentinian and that one of my great-grandfathers was Croatian, many people left me positive comments and showed interest in that topic!! I think there was one comment that touched on a political topic that I really have no idea about. Just so you know: many Croats emigrated from Croatia looking for better opportunities abroad, long before World War II :), as was the case with my great-grandfather who was just looking for a better life.
One day I will visit your BEAUTIFUL country!! Congratulations on the wonderful country you have!! I’m not Croatian, but sometimes I feel a bit like one of you ❤️
(The images I posted are of the following:
1 – a ship built near the port in Rosario (province of Santa Fe) in honor of the Croats.
2 – Croatian flag raised on the Historical Flag Monument in Rosario on August 5.
3 – flags of Argentina and Croatia on Croatian National Day.
4 – Croatian cultural center in the city of Rosario.)

Meni je pradjed bio u Argentini, ironija je da se vratio pred Drugi svjetski rat 😅 Oduvijek mi je želja posjetiti zemlju, iako nitko ne zna gdje je bio i gdje je došao, samo da je bio inženjer u argetinskoj vojsci
Dragi prijatelju, obožavam Asado. Costillares, vacío, punta de espalda, molleja, chinchulín, entrañita…
Stalno rošziljam po uzoru na vas.
Somos hermanos carnal
U tvoju čast sutra srkam mate.
Moji su također odlazili u Argentinu i Čile još prije 2. svjetskog rata. To moram posebno naglasiti jer nekima teško ulazi u glavu da su ljudi iz naših krajeva u Južnu Ameriku odlazili puno prije tog teškog razdoblja, u potrazi za boljim i dostojnijim životom.
Iskreno, nisam još puno istražio u koja su točno mjesta otišli, ali svakako to planiram jer me ta priča stvarno zanima. Volio bih jednog dana posjetiti tu veliku i divnu zajednicu Hrvata u Južnoj Americi. Ono što sam do sada čuo i vidio zaista me impresioniralo i iskreno mi ugrijalo srce.
