  Description

  We are a retreat center Ashuma that provides a space for hosting retreats focused on relaxation, yoga and mindfulness practices. Various teachers bring their groups here to practice and share their knowledge.
Nestled in the beautiful mountains of Montenegro, our retreat is a peaceful place surrounded by nature.
  Here, you will experience breathtaking views, serene forests, and fresh mountain air.
  
  We strive to make every Workawayer feel like part of our community. Daily life here is about collaboration, open conversations, and mutual learning. We are happy to share our knowledge of hospitality, plant-based cooking, herbal distillation, regenerative agriculture, and holistic wellness. In return, we look forward to Workawayers bringing positive energy, enthusiasm, and active participation in daily tasks. We also welcome the opportunity to learn from their professional skills, unique perspectives, and cultural backgrounds.
  
  We believe in creating a space where everyone grows, learns, and contributes, making the experience enriching for all. 😊

  Autres infos...

  We are located in the mountains and surrounded by forests, so there is no public transport nearby. The closest town, Cetinje, can be reached by taxi, but first, you’ll need to walk for about half an hour.
  During retreats, everyone is usually busy with their own tasks or helping each other. There is different fixed work schedule for everyone—it depends on the specific retreat and job requirements, which are discussed in advance. You will also need to wear a uniform and stay in touch using the walkie-talkie provided.
  
  We don’t have a main electricity supply, so we rely on solar panels and a diesel generator. Since fuel is quite expensive, we turn off the electricity when there is no retreat happening.
  You should be prepared for wild living and working conditions. After all, we are in the mountains, where thunderstorms, lightning, rain, and strong winds can occur from time to time. Occasionally, you might see a snake (very rarely) or some small insects.
  
  Okay, that’s enough of the scary part! 😄 In reality, this place is friendly, peaceful, and truly beautiful.
