What else ...
We both love travelling, and have been doing so together for the last couple of years. We spend a lot of time outdoors hiking, swimming, and enjoying nature! We also enjoy cultural experiences and learning about life in different countries through food, music, and meeting new people. In the evenings we can be found playing board games such as Ticket to Ride and Carcassonne over tasty food and maybe a beer :)

I had an amazing time staying with Primoz and his friend Kefalo on Trebević. He's a very knowledgeable and inspiring man who you can learn alot from. I had alot of fun helping build his mountain hut and I can't wait to see it completed! Thanks again my friend, that view is something I'll never forget.

This guy is definititly 6 out 5 stars! He stayed with us for 5 weeks and became in no time part of the family. Besides being a very skilled carpenter he is also a great allrounder and can do basically about everything when it comes to building. Charley helped us building an awesome deck, a roof for our funky greenhouse, an awesome bunk bed for our… read more

Thanks so much Vedran and Valentina, I hope to see you in… read more

This was my first workaway experience, and I couldn't have asked for a better one. Radek and Swietłana are incredible people and extremely caring hosts. As for the food, let's just say I put on 4 kilos in the 3 weeks I was there haha. (so much delicious traditional food!) The work was good, although I do wish I came at a time when work was being… read more
