Description
We are a big nature oriented off grid family which lives in amazing nature of Croatian picturesque hills and we would like to invite anyone that resonates with our story to come and visit us, help out in countless tasks and daily assignments that we are faced with in building permaculture paradise that only uses minimal amounts of exclusively natural energy, material and resources :)
On the edge of absolute wilderness nature has blessed us with some amazing gifts which include pristine nature, many water sources and streams, intact forest full of wildlife, mushrooms, berries, medicinal herbs and above all many hours of sunshine.
Only thing that we need to do is to follow the footsteps of ancient civilizations and native tribes just listening, observing and enjoying.
We accept everyone with open hearts but our favourite visitors would be big families like our own, with many kids, to connect with on many levels of physical and mental awareness.
We practice natural parenting with really basic and minimalist lifestyle.
The meaning of our off grid life is to get back to ourselves and nature while sharing insights on how easy
it is to leave civilization and all the benefits and conveniences in our everyday lives.
Learning, listening and bonding with nature and our kids is something delicate and precious, and we try to get better at it every day.
Our cleaning and hygiene products are completely natural and made on site exclusively with our parents/kids hands.
Our approach to food is minimal, optimal and sustainable. We love what we have and we appreciate the abundance of what nature provides us daily.
We eat predominantly plant-based, wholefoods diet based on what grows wild in our local
environment and what we grow ourselves in our permaculture garden.Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We will do our best to present you and even immerse you in our local lifestyle but we are also very eager to hear your stories about your country, culture, language, cuisine...
Some of the forgotten activities in today's world that we practice are:
- looking at the beautiful clear sky full of stars,
- waking up early to capture the magic of morning mist and dew,
- crafting wood products using only forgotten hand tools
- gardening and planting without chemicals with ladybugs in mind
- observing the magic of those small creatures called fireflies and their light show that we get blessed with every night
- taking a nap in a hammock on a cool evening of a hot summer day listening to an amazing frog orchestra playing every night just for us :)
Living off grid, writing letters and books with pen and paper instead of going digital all the time, enjoying the light of a natural wax candle instead of lights glowing all the time.
We have many years of experience with this lifestyle so we are prepared to share all of our knowledge about this kind of diet, all the upsides and downsides, including intermittent fasting, and complete life transformation which includes cold showers, breathing exercises and meditation.Projets impliquant des enfants

We honestly feel that any kind of connection is possible only with people who stay for at least one month of dedicated time to really help us with work on projects and to sincerely bond with us by being immersed in our lifestyle.
Our primary focus is taking care of our big organic garden which includes planting, watering, weeding, mulching and harvesting 😊
.
We mostly need help around the house, playing with kids, teaching them languages, art and music skills you might have. Also building and carpentry skills, gardening and permaculture skills but you are also welcome with any other skills you might be able to offer, including honest friendship :)Langues

We are always as a family with kids very eager to improve our language skills so anyone with a desire to share their language skills is more than welcome ;)Hébergement
You will be settled inside our cosy family house with your own room as there is plenty of space and beds inside.
There is a outdoor toilet available but you can also use the forest toilet anywhere around you ;)
We offer a lot of organic and fresh plant based food from our land, wild or self grown, lots of new ingredients celebrated in colourful dishes. Also an abundance of natural spring water.Autres infos...
There is a lot of activities that you can do around here including hiking, local sightseeing, riding mountain bikes, forest meditation, exploring local lakes and rivers, mountain tops, visiting local farmers markets.
We listen to our body and try to heal ourselves with natural, local and organic food.
We don't follow any particular religion, but we practice our own spirituality in harmony with nature as we found our church in the nature around us celebrating our creator everyday.
We like to talk and discuss about any values that originate from any religion in terms of making a community that is based on honesty, integrity, joy and absolute presence in every moment.
If you feel that you resonate with our story we welcome you to stay for as long as you want.
Our basic set of values is completely based on avoiding harming the nature, which includes predominantly plant based diet, never killing animals for our own needs.
If you are tired of cities, routines and schedules, wanting to go back to the countryside and live a slow and fulfilled life, you will love it here with us.
If you love nature, trying to learn from her and not harm her in any way, also become more aware of your decisions in life and bring back your inner child, you will absolutely love it here with us.
If you already know or you want to learn how to enjoy life living with minimalism, enjoying your resting time and working hard when needed, devoting yourself to projects with natural materials, you will want to come and stay with us for a long time :)
We have a lot of children as you already know, so you have to love children and be ready for their different phases, all the good and the bad moments, and also be prepared for the fact that their way of life, their way of thinking will trigger your inner child, all the unfulfilled wishes and thoughts you had as a child.
If you want to grow as a person on any level, and as a family on any level, thinking about higher purpose of life, getting to know and healing yourself and your entire family, you will love it here with us.
So please, think about everything written in our profile, we can create something beautiful together, some amazing and long lasting friendships, but if you have any doubts about this kind of lifestyle, please don't waste yours or our time in this short life.
We want to have individuals and families here that are on the same path as we are, sharing the knowledge and progressing further together.Informations complémentaires

We were welcomed immediately into the family, and once we got to know the very special and sweet children we really felt like a part of the family.
