    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Our environment can provide everyone with an introduction to the Serbian identity, which includes language, script, tradition, national cuisine, customs, history of Serbs and the history of the village itself. In addition, all participants get the opportunity to achieve a full framework of environmental awareness and care for nature and children.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    Accommodation includes bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen and summer kitchen, the house is located two kilometers from the village center and ten kilometers from the city.

    There are two shops in the village 2.5 kilometers away from the house for the needs of guests. I mention this because we had an unpleasant experience with guests who chose - they did not want to eat what we offer and what we eat ourselves. The only tolerance is towards people with allergies. This is a village and fruits, vegetables, dairy products, eggs and sometimes fish are most present in the village. If someone wants to cook for themselves, they will have access to the kitchen but we do not need help with cooking because we prepare food every day that we are ready to share with everyone ☺️

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    There is a 19th century log cabin church in the village as the main destination. Transport is a regular taxi service-price taxi costs between 1500 and 2000 dinars to Kosjeric.

    There are plenty of forest trails for hiking and natural beauty to visit during periods when there are no work activities.

    We do not accept yoga practitioners or fans of New Age ideology in general. We respect everyone's religious beliefs, but we do not allow insults to the Orthodox Christian faith. We had an unpleasant experience with arrogant guests and I think this is a modest request.

    Of the general conditions, it should be stated that it is absolutely necessary to register your stay in the Republic of Serbia, it would be desirable to have your own insurance and that the point is that volunteers adhere to the general rules when performing activities in order not to put themselves and other participants in a state of risk of injury, i.e. use tool exclusively with the supervision and presence of the host and everything is done on the basis of communication and self-responsibility.
