Description
Hi my brothers and sisters , we are located about 50 km from city of Karlovac towards south west, just 6 km away from Bosnia and Herzegovina.On 4 acres we take care for small forest,small fruit plantation,
We are; , 4 dogs(Gregor,Pis,Lav,Bak) and our cat Rogi and my self Filip ,my mother Goga is spending half of the time here and other half in Germany. when she is on duty then we dont take volonters becouse we lack of space and and lack of time,sometimes she just want to rest a litle,when i am here i take volonteurs with happines .So we have shitfs that lasts month her/month me.
We are spending our time here working, resting ,enjoying and a litle bit of fun.We love sharing,building,making jokes ,cooking,planting,cleaning,walking dogs,and being in nature charging ourselfs with good vibrations,meeting other people and their ways of living .Sometimes is lonely and quiet which is perfect for introspection ,meditation ,preyer,training or reading books.People all nations are welcome,you respect us we respect you ,you be good to us we will reciprocate.
This a beautifull part of Croatia also known as Kordun. It´s full of small rivers, forests, valeys and hills with rich history.
We have many ideas for the future projects like builting a dog hotel,fence and a lot more on our property.
We are trying to grow some of our own food.
There are many seasonal jobs here,somethimes it is wood choping,preparing food for winter,colecting plants and fruits,choping grass,planting ,watering,building stuff,and a lot more.We are vegetarians and cook plant based but sometimes there is some meat in the fridge and you are welcome to eat it.
Most of the time,breakfast is fruit,eggs from our neigbour Nadas chickens, bread , jam, oats and whats in the kitchen you can take like its yours. For lunch we cook meals and sometimes need volunteers to help with kitchen chores. Dinner you can find anything ,similar to breakfast or can be leftovers from lunch becouse we try to respect food and not waste it.
We are also interested to learn about a lot of things from diferent cultures. We would like to exchange knowledge about natural medicines, construction and language. We would like to share knowledge,wisdom and hapines with people .
We exchange 5 days a week 4-5 hours a day of work ,with 2 days of rest, for delicious vegetarijan food(we cook 1 meal and 2 you take yourself what you want from kitchen) ,So 3 meals a day ,and dry warm room for rest.
We speak only croatian and english for know
