"Lika" is a for me a symbol of unspoiled nature, rural living and escape from the civilisation.

2021 Dream
- Long-term dream: living with multiple families in the Intentional Community in/near my (eco) village in Lika, Croatia (in 2026-2050 onwards)
- I would like to attract many people to come and live In Lika, in that area, with us – in a commune, or in a village, or in the little town; in the rural area, in the mountains, on the farms... Land is "biological" as it was not used since the war (1991-1997); houses are cheap, but the existing peoples are ageing and moving to cities, and still traumatised by wars, poverty, corruption...
- Mid-term plan (2022-2026): spending part of the year in my house in Lika
- Short-term plan: offering Lika Lodge as a retreat / vacation place to friends, based on FLOSS ethics http://tinyurl.com/Lika-Lodge
2013 Dreams
This is the area where I am planning to "return", back to wilderness and feral state, in order to make a "rural hackerspace" and a community of likeminded friends and family, in the year -2022 (when I am 50, and Alisa is 19 and Charlie 17...)-. (maybe 2025?)

Gubavcevo Polje
"Gubavcevo Polje" is a village in Lika, Croatia, where my grandparents used to live, and I used to spend every summer from 1972 to 1990 (when the war started).
It's literally "in the middle of nowhere" (closest city is Gracac, the least populated arena in Croatia), and therefore has unspoiled nature and, absurdly, lots of peace, since all the refugees who left during Oluja in 1997 did not return any more.
