Looks more Levantine or "Semitic". So I'd go with either Lebanon, Israel, Syria and perhaps the Nineveh Plains of the Assyrian homeland in Upper Mesopotamia (still though, he looks more Levantine shifted).
Was going to say Iran, but such full lips are atypical there.

His left ear looks like in the cartoons when the character is listening to something. He looks like a mix of Spanish and Iranian or something, very East Med.

Croats range from Finnic to East Med looking. He is very handsome man.

Do you find Croatian Australian soccer player Miles Jedinak attractive? He has a quasi East Med-ish look and seems kinda 'woggy', perhaps due to his excessive beard. Lol.

^^^^I am not sure. Mile looks quite manly. He is not strange looking like this guy though, this guy is on exotic end of Croatian spectrum. I tought he looks Lebanese or something.
If we are speaking about southern looking Croats, this man is crush :)

Thanks for these pics, as they've proved my point I was trying to make earlier with someone -- That Iranians (light or dark) generally have thin lips. Whereas this guy has relatively fuller lips, thus making him more Levantine Arab/Jewish looking -- Many Levantines with light eyes look like him. People are only passing him as an Iranian because he's tanned and exotic with light eyes, since such features are affiliated with Irano-Nordoid type. Except, they have no idea that facial features are imperative as well.

Monkey ? He just looks exotic. His cousin looks exotic too. One user wrote he looks like Spanish Gypsy few years ago, I kind of can see it.

Oh yes he is. More exotic Croats don't exist, only some in similar range. His look is 1% of the population or less.
Less tanned

Honestly, is his type more exotic than some Nordid or Berid types in Croatia? Can't imagine he sticks out more in Croatia than your run-of-the-mill Swede or Icelandic.

greece and albania are good fits for him. he can even pass in south italy.
in addition to these countries he can pass in turkey, georgia, cyrpus and maybe armenia too.

Croats are genetically more Northern than Southern European so yeah Nordics are much less exotic than he is. We are Slavs and not Semites.
Also Croatian Nordics do not look Scandinavian.
Berids are very atypical in Croatia, but they exist (his cousin actually is a a Berid who looks like a Brazilian pardo, posted him this morning)

The OP doesn't look too far off Vrsajlko or Kovacic imo. Slightly more exotic maybe.

Kovacic looks Med influenced for me despite being blue-eyed. I do think Vrsajlko looks closer to OP as OP is also very Med shifted. He probably scores higher-than-average EEF admix hence why he doesn't look as "steppic" as your average Croat would.

I agree with that. There is something Greco-Roman about Kovačić's phenotype. His high rooted nose, downturned eyes, curlish hair....he looks southern despite his quite light pigmentation.
Vrsaljko is very med, and yeah OP is also. Just OP look non-Euro med to me primarly. Although he still has some Croatian details only visible to natives.
I know a man similar to him, but not so woggy and less West Asian looking, more Albanian/Illyrian probably.

Given the elevated EEF and sizeable CHG in some southeastern ethnicities, it isnt surprising that a few can end up looking like they can pass in parts of West Asia. This individual happens to be one of those imo, though I'm sure this exists far less in Croatia than it would in southern Balkan states.

You could pass as Egyptian/Levantine/North African. Get real, dude.
I think he could pass in Iran for sure.... Probably Lebanon or something too....
