Cjelina 4: Stanovanje
🗣️ 4 | 1 | Lekcija 1: Moj stan
Osjećaj se kao kod kuće
New city, new friends… and a place that feels like home. 🏡✨Laura is settling into busy life in Zagreb, and James enjoys his chill time in Split… well, mostly enjoys it. (Let’s just say his roommate’s cleaning habits are a work in progress. 👀)
From freshly renovated apartments to shoes-on-the-bed chaos, everyone has a living-situation story to share. Tonight, Laura and Sandra are visiting Mario’s apartment, checking out his stylish place and helping with dinner. While Laura is having a relaxed evening, back in Split James is venting to Matija about his roommate. So come on in, take a look around, make yourself at home… and maybe help us tidy up a little? 😄
