Grande Europe et terrorisme intellectuel

par

Tomislav Sunic

C'est le 16 avril, aprčs le oui triomphal (83,8 %) des Hongrois ŕ l'Union, qu'a été "couronnée" ŕ Athčnes l'Europe de 25, sanctionnée par un traité de 5 000 pages qu'ont signé pour la France Jean-Pierre Raffarin et Dominique de Villepin avec la bénédiction de Kofi Annan, secrétaire général de l’ONU, sous l'égide de laquelle s'inscrit donc la "Nouvelle Europe". Un parrainage assez inquiétant, notamment en ce qui concerne la liberté d'expression.

La police de la pensée est difficile ŕ repérer car elle se cache souvent sous les concepts rassurants de "démocratie" et "droits de l'homme." Si les Quinze exhibent volontiers les beautés de leurs paragraphes constitutionnels, ils admettent rarement les ambiguďtés de leur Code pénal. Et c'est dans une grande discrétion que l'an dernier, la Commission européenne avait tenu a Bruxelles, et ŕ Strasbourg des réunions d'une importance historique sur l’avenir de la libre parole.
Sujet de discussion? La promulgation de la nouvelle législation européenne instituant le "crime de haine" et appelée ŕ se substituer aux législations nationales pour devenir automatiquement la loi dans tous les Etats européens, de la Grčce ŕ la Belgique, du Danemark au Portugal. Si bien que toute personne poursuivie pour "crime de haine" dans tel pays de l'Union pourra ętre jugée et condamnée dans tel autre.
Rétrospectivement, cette loi supranationale apparaît inspirée du code criminel communiste de la défunte Union . En Amérique et en Angleterre, la pratique légale présuppose que ce qui n'est pas spécifiquement interdit est permis. C’est la raison pour laquelle l'Allemagne a adopté des lois rigoureuses contre le Ť négationnisme ť. En 2002, lors de sa visite en Allemagne, l’historien américain d’origine juive, Norman Finkelstein a suggéré ŕ la classe politique allemande de cesser d'ętre la Ťvictime délibérée ť des groupes de pression "de l'industrie de l’holocauste" ( titre de son essai tant controversé). Il a également fait remarqué que l’attitude servile des Allemands pourrait ętre totalement contre-productive en favorisant un antisémitisme aujourd’hui bien caché. Mais personne n’a su réagir positivement aux avertissements de Finkelstein, de peur d'ętre dénoncé comme antisémite. A l’inverse, le gouvernement allemand a accepté pour la éničme fois de verser 5 milliards d'euros supplémentaires aux 800 000 survivants de la Shoah.

Quand on interdit la discussion de matičres taboues, le climat de lâcheté intellectuelle s’alourdit. Une nation empęchant la libre parole et l'expression libre de vues politiques diverses – męme si ces vues peuvent paraître aberrantes – peut-elle ętre encore appelée démocratique ? Bien que les Etats-Unis se targuent de leur ŤFirst Amendement ť, le discours libre dans les média et dans les universités y est pratiquement impossible. L’autocensure didactique l’emporte. Souvent les professeurs américains évitent les expressions ou avis politiquement incorrects, redoutant de compromettre leur carričre. Une pratique croissante en Amérique veut que les professeurs donnent de bonnes notes ŕ des médiocres étudiants de souche non européenne, afin d'éviter des ennuis judiciaires, ou pis, de perdre leur travail.
En France, depuis la loi Fabius-Gayssot, proposée par un député communiste et adoptée en juillet 1990 (puis aggravée ŕ l’initiative du député chiraquien Pierre Lellouche en décembre 2002), toute personne exprimant en public un doute au sujet de l’historiographie contemporaine risque de sérieuses amendes et męme l'emprisonnement. Un certain nombre d'auteurs et de journalistes français, allemands et autrichiens sont persécutés, pourchassés, emprisonnés, d’autres ont demandé l'asile politique en Syrie, en Sučde ou en Amérique. Quelques-uns se sont męme installés dans les pays de l’Est. Des mesures répressives semblables ont été récemment décrétées en Australie, au Canada et en Belgique multiculturelle. Plusieurs dirigeants nationalistes est-européens, en particulier croates, souhaitant rendre visite ŕ leurs compatriotes expatriés au Canada ou en Australie n’ont pas obtenu le visa pour ces pays en raison de leurs prétendues vues Ťextrémistes ť. 
Pour l'instant la Russie et d'autres pays ex-post-communistes ne pratiquent pas la męme répression de la pensée libre et l’on voit dans les libraires croates des traductions d’ouvrages français ou allemands impubliables en France ou en Allemagne. Mais en raison de la pression croissante de Bruxelles et de Washington, cela va changer. L’adhésion ŕ l’Union européenne des anciens satellites requiert de ces derniers un alignement sur la pensée unique et l’apprentissage d’une nouvelle langue de bois aussi redoutable que celle de l’époque communiste. 

Croire que la terreur d'Etat, c’est-ŕ-dire le totalitarisme, ne peut qu’ętre le produit d’une idéologie violente véhiculée par une poignée de bandits, est fort répandu et l’on a beaucoup entendu cet argument récemment ŕ propos de l’Irak . Mais cette idée est fausse. La démocratie triomphante aussi, qui pousse ŕ l’abdication intellectuelle dans le grand consensus mou, constitue une tentation totalitaire. Le terrorisme intellectuel grandit et se propage grâce ŕ la croyance généralisée que, d’une façon ou d’une autre, les choses finiront par s’améliorer toutes seules. Or, l'apathie sociale croissante et l’autocensure galopante parmi un nombre croissant d’intellectuels européens apportent de l’eau au moulin de la police de la pensée. Au fond, comme l’écrit Claude Polin, l'esprit totalitaire est l'absence de tout esprit.

Dubrovnik Film Festival

Subj:Hello from Adrian Belic 
Date:5/21/2003 2:24:24 PM Eastern Daylight Time
From:Wadirum1
To:NenadBach

Hello Nenad,

I hope this email finds you well.

I just thought you'd like to know about the first Dubrovnik International Film Festival May 29th to June 1 www.dubrovnikiff.org  I am heading over there next week. I will be on the jury and there will be a special screening of Genghis Blues.

Yours,

My best,
Nenad 


MESSAGE FROM DIFF 

To Friends of DIFF: The idea behind the Dubrovnik International Film Festival (DIFF) is to bring independently produced international films to a Croatian and worldwide audience in the beautiful city of Dubrovnik, Croatia. Film festivals come in all differentshapes and sizes, but for the most part they all have one thing in common: they are successful because of the enormous dedication and commitment of the festival staff working as a team. Remarkably, a majority of the DIFF staff are unpaid volunteers who have donated their time and energy to this worthy endeavor - and for that we are extremely grateful!

There are film festivals all over the world that are very successful and perhaps evenbacked by governments, but most often they rely on corporate sponsors who see the enormous marketing potential to reach a niche audience. Unfortunately, the current state of the global economy has diminished the ability for corporations to provide sponsorship and participate in their communities. For the past two years, and even the last twelve years for Croatia, we have witnessed some extraordinary events that have affected us emotionally, physically and financially. These events have had such an unprecedented impact on our lives that, at one point or another, we all stopped still in our tracks for moments at a time. Despite all of this, we must strive to do the best we can, no matter what happens. Hence, the old Hollywood saying "the show must go on" come to mind.

For our first year, DIFF has been able to assemble a world-class selection offilms due to the desire of the international film community to exhibit their works in Dubrovnik and the enormous dedication of our staff and friends. We are very thankful to the City of Dubrovnik for all of their assistance, understanding and generosity in connection with DIFF 2003. We hope that the people of Dubrovnik and Croatia will enjoy our program and we sincerely appreciate the temporary "loan"of their city to us so that others may enjoy this very special location and learn about Croatia and her remarkable history.

With continued hard work, dedication and determination, DIFF will evolve into a world-class annual event that provides culture and entertainment to Dubrovnik for many years to come. We hope you join us on this worthwhile journey!

JUSTICE 
Dir.Evan Oppenheimer,82 min,USA,2003 
Cast:Erik Palladino,Catherine Kellner,Daphne Rubin- Vegas,Ajay Naidu,Marisa Ryan 

Three very different yet intimately connected New York stories are told in JUSTICE.Drew is a comic book writer who has been greatly affected by the death of a friend in the World Trade Centerattack. As a tribute and attempt to do something constructive, he creates a new comic book hero based on a real New Yorker.Mohammed,a streetvendor, is justly proud of his “Breakfast Time ” cart.But one day Mohammed fi nds himself without any bagels and a breakfast vendor in New York needs his bagels.Roberta,a Latina activist,has got a lot on her plate in the days leading up to September 11.The Giuliani Administration is threatening her advocacy group with budget cuts,and her husband is pressuring her to start havingkids. Gradually the relationships between these characters become evident and we see how fate sometimes hangs on the most tenuous of coincidences. The question isasked: How do we learn to live in a world in which everything is so uncertain? PLUS SHORT QIK2JDG Dir.Nick Spano,5 min,35mm,USA,2002 A successful judge experiences an epiphany that reveals the depth of his own humanity and conscience in the most unlikely ofplaces: a dingy gas station restroom.

SATURDAY,MAY 31 —1:00 P.M .(AT SLOBODA) 
GENGHIS BLUES 
Dir.Roko Belic,90 min,USA,2000 
Paul Pena played blues with the greats T-Bone Walker, B.B.King,and Bonnie Raitt.In 1995,the blind bluesman became the first American ever to compete in an unusual contest of multi-harmonic “throat singing.” Pena discovered Tuvan throat singing on a short-wave program of Radio Moscow twelve yearsago. In 1993,Pena discovered that Tuvan throat singers were on their first concert tour of the U.S.After theirperformance, the deep-voiced bluesman broke into his own self-taught style of throat singing and serenaded themusicians! The throat singers were amazed by Pena ’s mastery of the Tuvan art form and likened his rich voice to the sounds of tremors in theearth. GENGHIS BLUES is a film about exploration and friendship. It is the story of a man whose struggle in life is not defined by conformity and rules but by an unquenchablecuriosity, and love of music. Pena ’s story is truly an inspiration to all. This majesticfilm, made in 1999,was nominated for the Oscar for Best Documentary Feature at the 2000 Academy Awards and won the Audience Award at the Sundance Film Festival,(1999).The music in the film is literally incredible and it has to be seen and heard to be believed.

NB

Current Project: Building Bridges
European Tour 2003 & Documentary Film
**Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, and Kosovo**
The purpose of this project is to shed light on the American predicament 
while working with artists from the former Yugoslavia to make connections 
based on their experiences of war, life, love, and the rebuilding process.

Workshop Goals:
Aid artists in building new works of theatre and dance by 
presenting a construct and a floor plan in which to develop
Present a platform for their own creative uniqueness and draw 
comparisons and likeness between different cultures
Expand theatre into public venues, creating site-specific and 
spontaneous work
Encourage the involvement of the audience into the piece in order 
to reveal each human’s creative potential

1. The workshops will focus on the theme of:
Exploring one’s identity in association with place: from our 
birthplace to our current home. And furthermore, how we relate to our ancestry.
Exploring the concept of home and wanderlust.
Exploring our own personal history along with our collective 
national history and how that contributes to how we identify ourselves in a 
global sense.

2. In addition to the workshops, BOHP will be seeking venues for performing 
a new theatre piece developed by and based on the same theme and technique 
as the workshop. This show will be developed and performed by members of 
BOHP, and will be open to evolve as

3. The workshops, travel adventures, and cultural reflections will culminate 
into a professional high-quality documentary film aimed at wide audiences on 
the festival circuit in America and Europe.


BROKEN OPEN HEART PRODUCTIONS

..........more about our company..............
As a fresh young artist’s collective based in New York City we are 
seeking to create fresh new works of theatres, mixing media, and exploring 
new avenues of creative expression. We know performance is a medium in 
which evolution may occur, and understanding can spread like wildfire.

The basis of BrokenOpenHeart Production’s work is storytelling through 
the physical life of the character. Character development is based on 
pre-existing aspects of the performer, which are uncovered through breath 
work, physical exploration, and various techniques based on play and 
structured improvisation. For each performer to access his or her very own 
unique virtuosity, to shed light on pertinent issues, and to expand the 
boundaries and definition of experimental theatre is our goal for creating 
new works of theatre and dance.

Deep-sea diving into our selves, we discover unique traits which we can lend 
to a universal theme, inspiring others to create freely and spontaneously. 
We transform the definition of audience from spectator to participant by 
inviting them to join in the spontaneity of performance. Through this we 
give everyone an opportunity to discover his or her own human potential.
Currently artists-in-residence at chashama, Inc., an experimental theatre in 
Times Square, in the heart of New York City, we have produced various new 
works of theatre, dance, and video projects.

If you are interested in the project, want to help, contribute, join our 
network of artists striving for peace and cross-cultural understanding:

A Window To The Republic of Croatia! 

CROATIAmonthly 

CROATIANS AROUND THE GLOBE 
From as far back as the 1830’s the first wave of mass emigrations to the countries of the New World occurred, which mainly saw the Croatian population fit into the context of European migration flows of the time. There were many reasons why Croatians emigrated to foreign countries: economic underdevelopment, political reasons and for reasons of adventure and exploration. But for the majority of people who left their homes at the time the main reason was the economic situation. The most striking example of this was the so-called “Wine Clause,” stipulated in an 1891 trade agreement between the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Italy, which was particularly unfavorable to Dalmatian viticulture. The Wine Clause allowed the import of cheap Italian wines under very favorable conditions. The Dalmatian wine industry was heavily affected by this resolution by the Viennese authorities, which reduced its market in Croatia itself. The agreement lasted decades and was not revised for some time.
Political conditions as the main motive of emigration was the result of the First World War and became much more significant immediately after World War II, when hundreds of thousands emigrated for fear of retaliation and the suppression of democracy by the Yugoslav authorities. The emigrants were mostly men from rural areas, young and without professional qualifications. In general it is safe to say that they performed the hardest and the most dangerous physicallabor in the countries they moved to. So-called chain emigration results in compact groups of emigrants, often related by family connections, place of emigration, region, etc. Thus, many emigrants from Dubrovnik have large communities in California, Peru, emigrants from the island of Hvar in Argentina, emigrants from Korcula in Brazil, emigrants from the Lika region in the American Midwest, emigrants from Makarska in New Zealand and Dalmatians in Australia.
The most recent research conducted can’t conclusively reveal how many Croatians have left their country and how many currently live abroad. It is estimated, from a combination of sources, that there are over 1.5 million Croatians who have emigrated and taken up permanent residence in one of the destination countries. Together with descendents, the number of Croatians that live in overseas countries can be estimated at 2.5 million. 
It should be noted that after the Homeland War of the last decade, large migrations from the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina have changed the ethnic aspect of that country. Today within Bosnia and Herzegovina there are an estimated 450,000 Croatians who are registered in BiH out of a totalpopulation of 2.5 million.

Croatians in Africa
With the exception of the Republic of South Africa there are no Croatian communities on the African continent. Over 13,000 Croatians live in South Africa today. The largest wave of emigrants which found its way to this region was the result of the Second World War.

Croatians in Australia
The Croatian community in Australia is very vivid and is supported through the multicultural attachment of the country. Australia has very large Italian and Greek populations and, according to some studies, the third largest group of descendents residing in Australia are from Croatia. It is estimated that 350,000 Croatian immigrants and descendants live in this country.

Croatians in Argentina
The new generation of Croatians in Argentina is constantly decreasing, and the wave of emigrants post second world war generation is estimated at 130,000.

Croatians in Austria
The Croatian minority in Austria (Gradisce-Burgenland) has an estimated 60,000 inhabitants, where over 15,000 live in Vienna. They have a highly developed ethnic consciousness, especially in the cultural aspect, and they strongly resist a loss of ethnic identity.

Croatians in Belgium
An estimated 12,000 Croatians live in Belgium. In addition to the older generation of emigrants (and today their descendents) who arrived in Belgium before and between the two world wars, the new, post-war emigrants make up most of the Croatian minority.

Croatians in Bolivia
About 1,200 Croatians live in this country which is today unfavorable to potential immigration due to poor standards. The majority of Croatians in Bolivia come from the Dalmatian region of Croatia.

Croatians in Bosnia and Herzegovina
782,068 Croatians used to live in Bosnia and Herzegovina, making up 17.4% of the total population. The decrease in this number is very distinctive and can be classified in the category of ethnic cleansing of the territory. Today the majority of Croatians in Bosnia and Herzegovina live in Western Herzegovina, Posavina and Central Bosnia. Last year official estimates revealed that 450,000 Croatians are registered inBiH.

Croatians in Brazil
It is estimated that 80,000 Croatians live in Brazil. Unlike other Southern American countries in which the number of Croatians has stagnated or dropped after the war, Brazil is one of the few countries where the number of Croatian immigrants is constantly on the rise.

Croatians in Canada
There are about 400,000 Croatians in Canada today. The largest number of Croatians live in the province of Ontario. There are three waves of Croatianemigrants in this country; the first wave started arriving from the late 1800’s. The second group came after the Second World War and the most recent emigration wave was the direct result of the Homeland War.

Croatians in Chile
Due to the global economic crisis and a shortage of profitable reserves of saltpeter, Chile has had difficulties in keeping up with the economic trends of the developed western world. This has caused a decrease of Croatians living in Chile and it has had a direct effect of the dynamics of their immigration. There are 25,000 Croatians living in Chile today.

Croatians in the Czech Republic and Slovakia
The Croatian communities in these countries are scattered among seven villages in Bohemia (Moravia) and seven villages in Slovakia (around Bratislava). Most of them live in Slovakia(Devinsko Selo, Hrvatski Grob, etc.). The number of indigenous Croatians in these countries is constantly decreasing. It is estimated that 6,000 Croatians reside in these countries today.

Croatians in Denmark
Until the conclusion of World War II, it was recorded that no Croatians lived in this country. Today, over 2,000 Croatians live in Denmark, half of whom reside in Copenhagen.

Croatians in France
About 40,000 Croatians live in France today. Most came to France after the 1960’s, when the Communist regime opened the borders.

Croatians in Germany
Germany is home to the largest Croatian community in western Europe. There are 193,000 permanent emigrants and another 230,000 working status Croatian emigrants.

Croatians in Holland
About 40,000 Croatians live in the Netherlands today. Most arrived after the 1960’s, when the Communist regime opened the borders.

Croatians in Hungary
Hungary and Croatia have a rich tradition and this can be seen mostly in the communities around Pecs and in Budapest. Over 73,000 Croatians live in Hungary today.

Croatians in Italy
At least, 33,000 Croatians live in Italy. The Croatian community in Abruzzi (Molise Croatians), in the village Acquaviva (the living water) and its surroundings maintains Croatian traditions, and the older residents even preserve their local dialect.

Croatians in Latin America
There are about 30,000 Croatians who found there way to this part of the world. Most were economic and political post-war emigrants.

Croatians in Luxembourg
There are currently 1,200 Croatian emigrants registered in Luxembourg.

Croatians in Macedonia
Estimates reveal a Croatian population of 3,400 currently living in Macedonia.

Croatians in New Zealand
About 19,000 Croatians live in New Zealand. In addition to a limited number of post-war immigrants, the number primarily refers to thedescendants of previous immigrants from the Makarska littoral area and the Zagora region that gravitates towards it(Vrgovac), together with natives of Korcula and Peljesac who began to immigrate to this country in the second half of the 19th century.

Croatians in Romania
A portion of the Croatians who emigrated to the Banat long ago found themselves within the borders of Romania after World War I. In the Caras-Severin district around Rasice(Resita), there are about a dozen Croatian villages where the majority of Croatians live. It is estimated that 12,000 Croatians live in Romania.

Croatians in Slovenia
About 55,000 inhabitants of Croatian nationality live in the Republic of Slovenia, making up about 3% of the total Slovenian population.

Croatians in Serbia
Croatians in Vojvodina are a part of the indigenous population that has lived there for 300 or more years. There are 83,000 Croatians inVojvodina, making up 3.8%, 22,000 Bunjevci Croatians making up 1.1% and another 1,865 Sokci Croatians, making up 0.9% of the totalpopulation inVojvodina. Some estimates indicate that there are 110,000 Croatians in Vojvodina, but this still means that their number is in continuous decline. Another 8,178 Croatians lived inKosovo, but their number has drastically decreased over the last decade.

Croatians in Sweden
Besides Germany, this is one of the traditional destinations of Croatian labor migration. Today, most people belong to the category of permanent emigrants. A significant number of Croatians live inMalmo, Goteborg and Stockholm. It is estimated that 35,000 Croatians live in Sweden.

Croatians in Switzerland
The majority of Croatians live in the German-speaking cantons of Switzerland. It is estimated that over 41,000 Croatians live in Switzerland.

Croatians in the United States of America
The United States is the leading immigration destination for Croatian immigrants. It is estimated that over 600,000 Croatians moved to this country and an additional 250,000 Croatians moved to this country after the Homeland War. The USA is home to more than 1.5 million Croatian descendents.

PEDIDO DE NENAD GOLL – A REQUEST BY NENAD GOLL

Stovani g.Vrljicak, dugujem Vamzahvalnost za obavijesti Studie Croaticekoje mi redovito saljete e-mailom, a koje uvijek sa zadovoljstvom pogledam. VasaStudia Croatica zaista je na diku iponos ne samo hrvatskoj dijaspori, nego i hrvatskoj kulturi u cjelini.

Vidim da ove obavijesti saljete na 1300 adrese, a to mi je dalo ideju daVas nesto zamolim. Naime, prikupljam gradju za studiju o Matiji Botteriju (Hvar,7. 12. 1808. - Orizaba, Mexico, 3. 6. 1877.) koji je kao samouk postao svjetskipoznati botanicar. Botterija je Britansko kraljevsko hortikulturno drustvoposlalo u Mexico da za njih radi, pa je tako i ostao u Mexicu do kraja zivota. UHrvatskoj se malo zna o tom meksickom razdoblju njegova zivota i rada. Stoga sampreko interneta pokusao stupiti u kontakt sa SociedadBotanica de Mexico i sa Sveucilistem u Orizabi, ali nisam dobio odgovor. Uzostalo, zamolio sam ih da mi posalju kopiju clanka Ide K. Langman "ApuntesBiograficos del Sr. Mateo Botteri", objavljenog u Boletinu No. 14 (1952),koji izdaje Sociedad Botánica de México.Vidjevsi popis primatelja Vasih obavijesti, pomislio sam - mozda bi netko mogaopomoci. Unaprijed Vam zahvaljujem na susretljivosti, uz najbolje zelje Vama iVasoj reviji Studia Croatica.

Sa stovanjem, Vas Nenad Goll

ElSr. Nenad Goll fue durante varios ańos director de la revista Matica, de la FundaciónCroata para la Emigración – Hrvatska Matica Iseljenika. Con sus saludos yconsideración para la revista StudiaCroatica, nos pide si podemos conseguir un artículo aparecido en 1952 en elBoletín de la Sociedad Botánica de México(Boletín No. 14). El artículo es de Ida K.Langman: "Apuntes Biográficosdel Sr. Mateo Botteri". Matija Botteri (Hvar, 7. 12. 1808. - Orizaba,Mexico, 3. 6. 1877.). Botteri, siendo autodidacta, llegó a ser un botánicomundialmente conocido. Fue enviado a México por la Real SociedadBritánica de Horticultura para que trabajara para ellos, y se quedó allíhasta el fin de sus dias. En Croacia se sabe poco de su vida y de su trabajo enMéxico. Por eso mediante Internet trató de ponerse en contacto con la SociedadBotánica de México y con la Universidad de Orizabi, pero no obtuvorespuesta. Entre otras cosas, les pidió le envien copia del artículo referido.Rogamos a quienes tengan acceso a esa revista en alguna biblioteca, que noshagan llegar copia del artículo, a esta redacción, o a Nenad Goll nenad.goll@zg.hinet.hr

If somebody can find and send the articlementioned, we will be appreciate it very much

U potrazi za prihvatljivim smjestajem 
Looking for affordable accommodations in the USA

(English version at the end)

Postovana gospodo,

lijepo Vas molim za nekoliko informacija. Zovem se Zlatko Greguric, student
sam financija i informatike na Sveucilistu u Zagrebu. Ovo ljeto provest cu u

SADu, radeci i putujuci vecinom po zapadnoj obali. Imam studentsku J-1 vizu
koja mi dozvoljava legalan rad, a najprije cu raditi u Montani gdje vec imam
posao. Medutim, svakako zelim proputovati i ostale drzave, a to ovisi o tome
hocu li naci odgovarajuci smjestaj. Buduci da ce smjestaj biti ipak najveci
trosak, odlucio sam unaprijed potraziti neki pristojan i jeftin smjestaj, a
nakon toga i posao u tom podrucju. 

Lijepo Vas molim za pomoc - informacije ili savjet: kako bih mogao pronaci
neki jeftini smjestaj za dvije osobe (sa mnom putuje i moja djevojka, takoder
student) u bilo kojoj drzavi tijekom ovog ljeta? Dakle, trazim smjestaj za 20-60
dana (ne znam jos tocno) tijekom kolovoza (August) i rujna (September).

Svaki savjet je vise no dobrodosao. Velika hvala unaprijed! Lijep pozdrav iz

Zagreba.

S osobitim stovanjem,
Zlatko Greguric

Dear Sir or Madam

I kindly ask you for a few information. My name is Zlatko Greguric, I am a
student of finance and computer science on University of Zagreb. I will
spend this summer in the USA, by working and traveling mostly on the west
coast. I have a student J-1 visa that allows me to work legally, and for start
I will work in Montana where I already got a job. But, I definitely want to
see and travel through other states as well, but that depends on finding appropriate
accommodation. Considering that housing is the greatest cost, I decided to look
for some decent and cheap accommodation in advance,
and afterwards to find a job in that area 

I kindly ask you for help information or advice: where/how could I find

some cheap accommodation for two persons (my girlfriend is traveling with
me, she's also a student) in any state this summer? So, I'm looking for
an accommodation for 20-60 days (I'm not sure yet) in August and September.

And advice is more than welcomed. Thank you very much! Nice greetings from
Zagreb.

Yours faithfully,
Zlatko Greguric
