Our stay with Daniel was great! The working hours were flexible and the work was various, making it very enjoyable. The food was mostly from the project and very delicious, cooked by his father. The nature around is great and you can enjoy some nice hikes. Daniel traveled a lot in the past and he was a volunteer himself, so he understands the volunteer's needs and made us feel very welcomed, plus we had very nice talks.It's a place where you are immersed in nature, so don't expect too much of modern comforts, but the animals and plants all around are amazing. Absolutely recommend, thank you!:)

We had a good time on Daniel's farm :) It's far from big cities, very calm and cozy, with two fun cats. I was mostly making clay walls, also there is a big the project to take care of. On the weekends we went to a local "Sunday pizza" gathering, where we met a lot of people and travelers. We were eating food, mostly made from his vegetables (a lot of zucchinies that month haha). I really recommend, for those people who want to get away from the fast city life and live remote for some time. Thank you! :)

I had a great time! Daniel was super welcoming and super nice, he was very flexible with work, eating, and resting schedule. We got all of our food from either Daniel's the project or from his neighbors/friends and it was delicious. The mobile sawmill came when I was there, so we spent a few days cleaning and stacking boards, and I also spent some time in the project weeding and planting peanuts! I also met a lot of Daniel's neighbors and friends, and it was really cool to get to know other people living in the Croatian countryside. Overall, I had a wonderful and relaxing time!
