A Month with Matthew: In Croatia

Writer Matthew Félix needed to figure out what was next for him, so he went on a month-long solo retreat in a seaside village in Croatia. From the characters he met, to the experiences he had—some funny, some frustrating—to the thoughts, memories, and emotions that came up for him, these are his unscripted stories and ruminations from a month in Croatia.

The “A Month with Matthew: in Croatia podcast” features travel anecdotes, storytelling, and humor short stories from author Matthew Félix’s solo retreat in a small island village in Croatia.

As it becomes clear that he’s not just passing through, the village opens up to Matthew, leading him to reflect on the benefits of staying in one place when traveling.

Matthew has a great conversation with Alfred the Butler, who—Matthew is surprised to learn—wants to visit Ohio. And the former prime minister of Croatia makes a cameo.
