The disappointment of last year was finally put to rest in Zagreb, where the FIJET Croatia team, led by Tina Eterovic and Marijana Rebic, delivered a splendid gala. The occasion featured mainly Croatian journalists and travel writers from Zagreb and nearby, as caution was required because of the pandemic. It was an honour for me, as a new member, to introduce myself on behalf of The Budapest Times, and I now look forward to introducing myself to Croatian tourism. Even so, the world cannot afford to resume the old mistakes of yesteryear tourism and general living. Despite the obstacles, the momentum for next year’s Marco Polo event is already building up.
