A visitor came from Croatia

Ms. Zana Hinek from Biovega in Croatia, a company that deals with Muso Shoji Co., Ltd., which expands its organic network to the world, visited Seishoku Kyokai.Croatia is a republic in Eastern Europe that became independent from Yugoslavia in 1991. Although it is a small country with a population of 440 million, about half the population of Osaka Prefecture, it officially joined the EU in July 2013. Biovega continues to offer seminars and macrobiotics-based cooking classes for people to live a healthy and sustainable lifestyle at an educational institution called macronova (something like the Musso Group's gourmet association). increase.At the organic shop bio&bio, which has 7 stores in the center of Zagreb, the capital, the policy is "employee education" in 13 and "high quality" in 1.The staff's extensive knowledge of the products seems to be a major point of differentiation from other stores that sell organic food, and many regular customers come for advice.Organic bistro ZRNO, also managed by Biovega, is the only restaurant in Eastern Europe that is certified organic, and you can enjoy delicious macro plates. Zana is tall and stylish.She was somewhat oriental and never got tired of talking with her. She said, "I only have bancha," and when she served the tea, she was a big fan of musou bancha, and she seemed to enjoy it.This visit to Japan is to visit producers of Japanese food products sold in Croatia.                  My interpreter, Miyuki Hosokawa of Muso Shoji Co., Ltd., and Biovega, a company that promotes macrobiotics, were very interested in the cooking class of the Japan Macrobiotic Association, and I visited the advanced course that was just being held. Thank you.I said goodbye to Croatia, promising to visit the ancient city of Croatia in Eastern Europe with its beautiful historical buildings and townscapes reminiscent of the Middle Ages.    (Excerpt from the newsletter Muso JOURNAL issued by Muso Shoji) (Terry)
