    Description

    Hi! I’m Milica, a creative educator and mom to Nina — a joyful, imaginative, and energetic 4.5-year-old. We live Vienna, but decided to spend winter in Novi Sad, Serbia, where we have a spacious two‑storey family house in central area.

    We fully embrace the Workaway philosophy and love welcoming open-minded, kind-hearted people into our home. Our rhythm is simple and warm: we wake up early (around 7 AM), enjoy creative play, and spend weekends mostly outdoors. We’re looking for someone who genuinely enjoys being around children and has experience with preschoolers — ideally age 23+, optimistic, and comfortable with our family-style routine.

    You’ll be part of our everyday life, and we hope you’ll feel like family while you’re here 💛

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    The house belonged to my grandmother, so the furniture is a bit traditional, but the space is very cozy, warm (central heating), and full of character. We have a lot of space here.

    Workawayers have their own private room with a balcony, as well as access to a lovely yard. The house is located in a beautiful, quiet street — just 2 minutes from a park, 5 minutes from the local market, and about 15 minutes’ walk to the city center. It’s a perfect peaceful escape while still being close to everything.

    We have a large kitchen and enjoy cooking healthy meals, and we’re happy to share food, recipes, and time together. You’ll have access to kitchen, and all household amenities. We value mutual respect, open communication, and creating a home-like atmosphere. We value comfort, flexibility, and mutual respect — and always make sure our guests feel relaxed, supported, and at home.

    What else ...

    Novi Sad is a wonderful city to explore, and our neighborhood is one of the best starting points. We live right next to Futoški Park, a peaceful green oasis perfect for morning walks, jogging, or simply relaxing under the trees.

    From our home, everything is within easy walking distance:

    City center – about 15 minutes on foot, full of cafés, culture, and beautiful architecture

    Futoška Market – only 5 minutes away, offering fresh fruits, vegetables, local products, and a lively atmosphere

    Petrovaradin Fortress – one of the city’s highlights, perfect for sunsets, history lovers, and amazing views

    Štrand beach on the Danube – a local favorite for swimming, sunbathing, or enjoying a coffee by the river

    Novi Sad is calm, friendly, and full of small discoveries — cozy cafés, parks, museums, and local bakeries. It’s a perfect place for anyone who enjoys nature, culture, and a relaxed lifestyle.
