Greetings fellow adventurers! I'm thrilled to introduce myself as your guide for the upcoming Sibenik Summer Sojourn. As a Croatian native originally from Zagreb, it's a pleasure to welcome you to my homeland and the beautiful coastal town of Sibenik. While I've recently returned to Croatia after two enriching years in Iceland, I'm excited to immerse myself in the vibrant culture and stunning landscapes of Sibenik this summer. Firstly, I'm eager to dive deep into the rich history of Sibenik, unraveling its stories and legends as we explore its ancient fortresses and monuments. Additionally, I'm looking forward to soaking up the sun and serenity on Sibenik's pristine beaches and indulging in the simple pleasures of coastal living. I want all of you to live like locals during your visit. But beyond the sights and sounds, my greatest expectation lies in the experiences we'll share. I anticipate a summer filled with laughter, learning, and new friendships forged along the way.

My partner and I are hosts for 2 guesthouses, nestled in the heart of Sibenik, which promises comfort and an authentic local experience. You'll stay in shared apartments with no more than two people per room, ensuring space and privacy. Get ready for a memorable stay filled with exploration, relaxation, and warm Croatian hospitality. Any question about the trip? You can let me know in the QnA section!
