  • Help

    Help

    I need a help to repair old wooden house (carpenter skills).

    Instead of bodybuilding in fitness centre, You can workout by helping me to plenish the garden and to build stone walls for terraces (muscle power skills). :)

    I would like to build an permaculture garden, but I don't have much clue about it. It would be great help if You have experience with it (gardening skills).

    You can help me to upgrade a Joomla website from ver. 1.2 to last version (high Joomla skills).

    If you don't posses these skills/superpowers, don't worry, there are still enough other ways for a "little help from friend", like painting the walls, cooking, etc. :)

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    You can enjoy huge (at least 100km²) forest (straight away from house) over karst hills for long walks or bike rides in peace and harmony with the nature & it's Creator.

    There are four beautiful rivers nearby (Kupa, Korana, Dobra, Mrežnica), perfect for swimming and for bike tours along side banks.

    You can visit Karlovac (12km away) and Zagreb (60km away). I'll be glad to guide You, if I have time. We could make trips together to the mountains in Gorski Kotar (60 km away). Perhaps also to Adriatic coast or to famous Plitvice lakes (both ca. 110 km away).

    Internet connection is sometimes a little bit slow, so it would be difficult to produce a well synced live jam-session / gig from here to your music fellows in California or Australia. :) But it's good enough for home office and video chats.
