Description
Hello there! My name is Roel Zerner, and I'm travelling the world to write about sustainable tourism, eco-tourism and life on the road! As a travelwriter I primarily sell articles to magazines and websites. I also run my own website called Beat The Trail (www.beatthetrail.com) which focuses on outdoor adventures and sustainable tourism.

I enjoy travelling as a lifestyle, and hope to do this for some time to come. I love animals, and would like more experience in working with them, especially horses.

Experiencing new things, meeting new people and telling their stories is what I love most though!

Hope to meet you someday!

Peter is an amazing host, a gentleman, and a true troubadour! His place always seems surrounded with good music, amazing views, and excellent local food and wine. The work is varied and changes with whatever needs to be done at the time of your visit. I've arranged wine bottles in the cellar, cleaned out the old forge that's part of Peter's house,… read more

Helping out Primoz with his daily chores was a breeze. The work is not hard, you'll help out with serving guests visiting the mountain hut and help out with random things that need doing. From changing the brake pads on a truck to gathering herbs and learning about local cuisine, there is always something to do. And when there isn't anything to… read more

To everyone wanting to experience the Croatian countryside while doing their part in reviving a local community, look no further! This place has got it all: cool group of locals and internationals, a relaxed and varied work schedule, free beers, fresh food and a festival at the end of the project!

Why aren't you here already?!
