Why Zagreb works as a base
Zagreb is calm, walkable, and easy to build routines in. It’s a great base if you want a city that doesn’t constantly demand your attention — but rewards you when you explore.
Where to stay (nomad-friendly logic)
- Center / Lower Town: easiest access to cafés, parks, and transit.
- Near Maksimir or Jarun: better morning nature, still connected by tram.
- Novi Zagreb: modern, spacious, and a different pace (great for longer stays).
Workday rhythm (Zagreb-style)
- Morning: short walk + coffee.
- Midday: focused work block.
- Afternoon: park reset (30–60 minutes).
- Evening: dinner + night walk (the best mental reset).
Quick resets (when you need a break)
- Maksimir for calm nature.
- Jarun for a movement reset and sunset.
- A day trip (Samobor / Sljeme) when you want a full reset.
