Personal comments:
In Croatia you can survive speaking English. Whenever somebody doesn't speak English, everybody is willing to interpret. Unfortunately the English skills of most Croatians are not good enough for a more detailed conversations in a bar or cafe. Most Croatian do not have enough patience to talk with foreigners speaking some Croatian.
