Hello everyone,

Nice to have found this forum. I am planning to move to Pula by the beginning of next year. Are there any expats on this forum living there, or have lived there, that can tell me how it is like.
I have visited the city a few times for short periods and got a very good impression of it. It seems there is everything present one could expect from a city that size, and the surrounding area, with it's towns and beaches looks lovely as well.

I work offshore so I will have a foreign income and wont be dependent on the local economy. So financially it shouldn't be a problem. But how is the education for instance? I have two young children.

If anyone can share there experience I would be very grateful.

Hey Campos,

I am planning to buy an appartment in or near the center of Pula. I always liked it during the short visits, but I would like to know the experience of people that live there the whole year. There is quite a big difference between those two

Hi. I am not familiar with Pula, but in my opinion you should probably contact the Ministry of Education http://public.mzos.hr/Default.aspx?sec=1938 , before arriving in Croatia, for information about the school system. That will save you time and clarify your available options. You might also want to ask your employer for help. Since they are already established in Croatia, they may have experience in transitioning schools, for employees children.
I wish you and your family all the best.

Thanks for the advise bubblegummy. I will dig into it.

Kind regards!
