Description
Namaste to everyone!
My name is Gloria, I am 39 and I am croatian.
I was living all around the country and travelling, but 5 years ago returned to my little hometown Daruvar (after 15 years of being absent).
Daruvar is located in Slavonia, green and hilly part of Croatia, 125km from the capital, Zagreb.
It's a very small town, with 9000 citizens, but charmingly beautiful!
It was selected 3 times to be the most beautiful little city in our country.
In the strict center, you can find beautiful park, lake, river and forest. :)
There are many nice walks and trekking routes to explore.
It's well known for our thermal spa waters, brewery, vineyards and the biggest Chezch community in Croatia.
3 years ago I fulfilled my big dream and bought a house in nature 2 minutes from the forest and opened my holistic mini ashram! I host retreats and providing yoga classes, meditations, cooking workshops, soundtherapy, massages, chanting, vedic rituals... I live for that..
In general...
I am an indian soul, yoga lover, nature, music, life, travelling, discovery.
I am a Kundalini yoga & Shakti dance teacher, masseuse, vegan cook, writer and holistic therapeut.
My dream is to beautify the whole place as much as possible, especially garden/yard (to make wooden tea house in japanese style, flower beds, little medicine garden, compost toilet, outer hot tub....).
I imagine this place to be for all the people who want to body&soul retreat, to destress from everyday life, get some tranquility, support, guidance and inspiration.
I need all the help I can get with the physical tasks, ideas about the yard renovation, garden etc. :)
Feel free to come and visit me! :)

I will cook healthy vegan meals and can teach you some delicious meals.
I can teach daily yoga, meditation classes or do soundtherapy, reiki or massage (per special offer :)).
We can take a Breathwalk through forest and walk or hike around the area...
Help
The expected time for tasks is 5h per day.
It depends considering the time of the year and which things can or need to be done, but it will definitely be something around gardening, watering the plants, redecorating the garden; helping around the house, cleaning the interior of the house, preparing ingredients for our meals, grocery shopping and similar.

What else ...
I don't have a car, but from me, it takes 12 minutes by foot to reach the city center. It's very peaceful here, so wherever you go, you will be surrounded by beautiful nature and peace&quiet.

She was really nice and showed us pretty much everything that Daruvar has to offer.
We also got the chance to attempt to yoga classes and her cooking skills just made everything perfect… read more
