自我介绍

My name is Marina Granic Skender. I was born in London where my mum (a beautiful Italian air hostess from Rome) and my dad ( a handsome young waiter from Croatia) fell in love and got married. We moved to Baska Voda, my father’s birthplace, when I was only 6 months old and I suppose it was then that my enormous passion for travelling, discovering new places and meeting people around the world started. I live with my husband Zarko in our family house which we inherited from my parents, together with my mother’s legacy of a host whose excellence was recognized and awarded even by the Croatian National Tourist Board. Our son Jure is an IT engineer and he lives in Split where he runs his small software company which keeps him so busy that I’m the happiest when he finds some time to come home. Keeping fit is a part of my daily routine and I enjoy my power walks along the seashore during the winter. I love swimming and I usually manage to stretch my swimming season from late April until mid November. I am an English and Italian teacher and I teach English in a primary school in Makarska. It is a great job for me not only because I enjoy working with my pupils but also because of the long summer break which enables me to have free time to dedicate myself to my guests during the busy summer season. I am more than happy whenever I am there for them if they need any help, advice or information I can provide. :)
