My story about it:
While spending a semester in Zagreb, I met my husband. My knowledge of Croatian was mediocre at the time – we also used arms and legs to communicate. For my 24th birthday, he gave me his entire Garfield comic book collection.
With the help of this ‘philosopher among animals,’ I managed to improve both my Croatian and my sense of humor.
