In 2011 Split, Croatia briefly featured in most of world's media. Not for the architecture, Festival of Mediterranean Film, Roman palace or 140% rise in room nights from tourism but for the horrific treatment of the first Split Gay Pride. Stones, firecrackers, spitting and Nazi salute chanting of 10000 angry citizens greeted just 300 pride participants. It was a very dark day in the history of my city.
Fast forward 2012.. I woke up today thinking ah.. going for a coffee and then off to get stoned.. The day of Split Pride 2012 arrived. This time it was better, bigger and 100% safe. New coalition government has shown the full commitment to human rights and this time made sure that Pride was a success. Split was a better place today then a year ago and so is the whole of Croatia.
