And those stories that carry a taste of mythology, fairy tales, fantasies and magic , which broaden horizons and bring to life new perspectives and possibilities.

What can I expect from the workshop?

You will get acquainted with the innovative concept of ecosomatics that is directly related to the cyclical nature and find out what are the key stages of human life and development

You will listen to stories about the Slavic rulers of the underworld and darkness Veles and Morana, find out who the Mermaids are and meet the terrible Aquarius, a resident of the Slavic rivers and lakes

With the help of road signs, you will discover the values of the elements of water that have the power to change your perspective on the experience of nature in everyday life, but also on yourself

Imagine discovering that universal, local, and personal story are much closer concepts than they seem at first glance and how much they can ennoble you from within.

Graduated manager in culture at the Faculty of Dramatic Arts in Belgrade with a tourist guide 's license dedicated to the interpretation and management of cultural and natural heritage.

For the second year in a row, I am launching nature tours on the theme of legends and myths, and recently I have been creating audio stories with the same inspiration.

I finished a fairy tale storytelling seminar with Jasna Held , the only professional fairy tale narrator in Croatia.

I was involved in folklore as well as folklore workshops for tourists over 10 years , which through dance and music brought me closer to the national heritage and ancient cultural values.

In my free time I love to stare at the trees and breathe the mountain air.

Once upon a time in Croatia

Graduated producer at the Academy of Dramatic Arts in Zagreb and trainer of "soft" skills whose focus is the research of Slavic mythology, cultural heritage and the development of storytelling skills.

As a soft skills trainer , I have experience in conducting interactive educations that include 4 types of learning based on the following questions: “why?”, “What?”, “How?” and “what if?”, with special emphasis on the topics of presentation skills and storytelling .

I "honed" the role of host in an adventure called " cruise manager " on boats on the Adriatic coast where I led guests through a seven-day trip giving them a sense of security and connection with the beauties and cultural and natural heritage of the Croatian coast.

When I’m not researching myths and fairy tales, I like listening to gramophone records and dancing barefoot in the grass.

​ANDREJA KRENEK, NARRATOR

​I enjoy your ease of conducting workshops, you do it with a lot of heart and love, but also knowledge. The games are relaxed, easy to indulge in and enjoy. You complement each other nicely. I was thrilled at how different we all are at the workshop, and yet we are all connected by the same thing.

IDA RADOVANOVIĆ, FOUNDER OF PLATGROM "PLAYGROUND"

The workshop was beyond my expectations. I don't know if I was more drawn to stories or original games or conclusions. What an interesting way to learn something and jump out of the comfort zone :) Thank you girls !!!
