He liked math and physics, biology and chemistry. You could say he was a nerd, but he also liked basketball, swimming, skiing, music and many other things. He was curious back then, as he is now. Everything he started, he also completed, and the School of Medicine was one of those things. He didn't start anything he didn't like. He always does that which interests him. If he has to do something boring, then he makes it fun. He liked Zagreb enough to stay. He never thought he would write, but, oh well, it happened and soon he found writing for children very interesting. He writes his column in one of the children's magazines. In 1998 he bought his third computer and like everyone who bought a computer back then he started a publishing house with a normal first name and a strange second name KASHMIR TRAFFIC. He published six picture-books: What is a Computer?, Gaining Knowledge with Computers, A Fairytale about Snowmen, Jacob the Editor, Oscar, and Hector and Leopoldine. Other countries took an interest in him and these picture-books were also published in Slovenian, Hungarian, Korean, French and Chinese. Andrea illustrated all of these picture-books, and she is the real reason for the founding of this publishing house with its normal first name and its strange second name.
