Observing the outside
Contexto cultural
The 'Propuh' myth: Croatians believe a draft from an open window can cause illness, so 'gledanje kroz prozor' is usually done with the window firmly shut. The 'Ponistra': In coastal regions, the window is often called 'ponistra' and is a central spot for 'fjaka' (the art of doing nothing). The 'Baba na prozoru': Elderly women often watch the street from their windows, acting as a neighborhood watch. Cafes are designed with large windows specifically so patrons can look out and watch people passing by.
