The submissions aren't just relics of failed marriages and unrequited love. There are also stories from people from when their parents abandoned them or passed away. Like the ceramic rolling pin, a submission from someone in Bedford, UK. The rolling pin symbolised the pain of being separated from a mother. The story next to the pin read: "All of the physical memories of my mother were burnt, discarded and buried. The most difficult part was that no one ever talked about her, so I had nothing.
Among the several other submissions made by people were empty photo frames, stuffed toys, dresses and even a giant axe.
The museum is in Zagreb, where Emirates Airline will be launching a direct flight starting June 1. It's an eight-hour flight from Dubai. When I visited Zagreb last week, we had a stopover, so it was a bit of a nightmare. The direct flight comes as a blessing.
Besides the Museum of Broken Relationships, Zagreb offers a wide range of mouth-watering Croatian food, street art, beautiful architecture and easy and cost-friendly transportation services to tourists.
There are 15 halal hotels all over Croatia and seven halal restaurants. The country also has a halal school, catering services, travel agencies and thermal spas.
As for transportation, residents in Croatia can be seen riding their bicycles everywhere, especially in Zagreb. People do have cars, and a number of residents also use the tram service.
As a tourist, I found the tram very convenient. They usually let tourists on for free, but I'm sure you actually have to pay a few Croatian Kunas. My driver was friendly, so I just hopped on for free.
I didn't submit anything to the Museum of Broken Relationships while I was there - I debated it, though - instead I enjoyed the low prices, going around the scenic city of Zagreb and getting a taste of the yummy food. I had beef steak and cherry strudel almost everyday! Oh and some divine locally-made virgin olive oil.
My most memorable experience though was my stay at the (built in 1925) Esplanade Zagreb Luxury Hotel. It's a popular place for presidents to stay at. Lucky for me, I ran into the president of Portugal while I was there.
