- I was born in Belgrade, but my parents come from Croatia: Lika & Dalmatia

−
- I have two small children that I feel responsible for, but I share their care with their father - we don't live       
 
−
together, but are both bound to stay close to the kids.

more...my parents are from Croatia but they are Serbian, so two out of 3 of my childhood homes are either unaccessible

estabilished with myself and the world were while walking "in nature", such as it is available - parks in Amsterdam.

don't know what does that mean... that's the "learning" part. I will visit existing "communes", workshops,

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.


How to Get There
