Life in the bay of our little village often takes me back to childhood. A childhood I didn’t fully appreciate at the time, but now I’m deeply grateful for the way the countryside shaped me. Zoran, too, often recalls his summers on the island of Hvar — especially now, as we return to traditional crafts and simpler ways of living.

Perhaps we've just lightly seasoned the present — with wine in prettier glasses and labels a bit more refined. But the taste of natural wine remains the same.

Our tomatoes are still ripening, so we’ve dressed the store-bought ones with our olive oil, homemade pine needle vinegar, and buckwheat microgreens that bring a subtle bitterness to the summer salad.

And life close to nature gives us something unexpected. Something people notice, even if they don’t quite know what it is — like wild carrot flowers that turn a simple, halfway improvised dish into something extraordinary. All it took was a few steps to a wild garden that needs no gardener — just a bit of knowledge.

Summer in the bay.

Život u uvali ovog našeg malog mista često me podsjeti na djetinjstvo. Djetinjstvo čiju vrijednost tada nisam znala prepoznati, ali danas sam duboko zahvalna što me selo odgojilo. I Zoran se često sjeti svojih dana provedenih na otoku Hvaru, osobito sada kad se vraćamo starim zanatima i jednostavnijem načinu života.

Sadašnjost smo možda tek malo začinili — vinom u ljepšim čašama i elegantnijim etiketama. No okus prirodnog vina ostaje isti.

Naše rajčice još dozrijevaju, pa smo one kupovne oplemenili vlastitim maslinovim uljem, domaćim octom od borovih iglica i mini izdancima heljde, čija gorčina daje završni ton ljetnoj salati.

A život u prirodi donosi i nešto neočekivano. Nešto što ljudi često primijete, ali ne znaju kako to nazvati — poput cvjetova divlje mrkve koji ovo, napola improvizirano jelo, pretvaraju u pravo malo remek-djelo. A sve što je trebalo bilo je par koraka do divljeg vrta kojem ne treba vrtlar, samo malo znanja.

Ljeto u uvali.

Skupljanje sjemena “mrtve” biljke jedan je od najradosnijih trenutaka u vrtlarstvu. Završava jedan ciklus života, a rađa se novi — bogatiji, snažniji — upravo zato što je ta jedna biljka nestala i ostavila svoje naslijeđe.

Osjećala bih duboku tugu da se nisam potrudila sačuvati njezino sjeme i time stvoriti novi život.

Možda zato toliko volim vrt. Ne samo zbog zdrave hrane koju nam daje, u kojoj uživamo mi i naši gosti, već zbog stvaranja. Sebično uživam u tom osjećaju da sam ja razlog što priroda oko mene buja — što je puna života.

I biljnog i životinjskog.

Sve počinje i završava sjemenom. Jesmo li uopće svjesni njegove važnosti?

Tvrdalj, the summer residence of poet Petar Hektorović, is filled with inscriptions about people, fishermen, life, and nature — a timeless reminder that living in harmony with the natural world is not a luxury, but a necessity. The stones, the fishpond, the words… all are doors to the deeper self.

Today, through regenerative tourism, we are reopening those doors. Not toward the past — but toward ourselves. Through simplicity, seasonal food, silence among the olive trees, conversations around the table, and cooking under the open sky.

Kad jedeš hranu koja je uzgojena s pažnjom i ubrana s ljubavlju, osjetiš razliku. Osjetiš lakoću. Osjetiš život.
Ne koristimo ništa što ne bismo dali vlastitoj djeci. Nema pesticida, nema kemije — samo ono što priroda da, i ono što ruke naprave.

To nije trend. To je povratak zdravlju, fizičkom i duhovnom. To je način života u kojem si bliže sebi, svojoj energiji, prirodi.

------
When you eat food grown with care and harvested with love, you feel the difference. You feel lightness. You feel life.
We never use anything we wouldn’t give to our own children. No pesticides, no chemicals — only what nature offers and hands prepare.

This isn’t a trend. It’s a return to health, both physical and spiritual. It’s a way of life where you reconnect with yourself, your energy, and the natural world.

Kada djecu učimo da poštuju prirodu i da je važno doprinositi zajednici u kojoj žive, znamo da odgajamo ljude koji će jednoga dana učiti svoju djecu istome.
A kada ih naučimo da je jednako važno brinuti i o zajednici u kojoj borave privremeno — kao putnici ili turisti — tada znamo da odgajamo ljude koji mogu mijenjati svijet.

When we teach children to respect nature and to contribute to the community they live in, we’re raising people who will one day pass those values on to their own children.
But when we also teach them to care for the communities they visit — even if only as temporary guests or tourists — then we’re raising people who have the power to change the world.

Družimo se, budimo aktivni i napravimo nešto korisno za zajednicu! Tko je za?
Vidimo se 24.5. u 9h u Gdinju – čistimo plaže, pa se družimo. Može li bolje?

Let’s gather, get active, and do something meaningful for the community!
Who’s in?
Join us on May 24th at 9 AM in Gdinj – we’ll clean the beaches and then hang out.

Zaljubila sam se u to malo, većini nepoznato mjesto čudnog imena, skriveno na otoku Hvaru.
Zaljubila sam se u njegovu povijest, u njegovu tradiciju.
U uske stare ulice, kamene kuće i Štradu — srce mjesta.

A onda, tu je i priroda.
Visoki čempresi, polja lavande, smilja i ružmarina.

I kao da ni to nije dovoljno, ovo skriveno blago Hvara odlučilo je imati i najljepše uvale i plaže otoka. Njihov broj ni sama ne znam.
More ih grli s obje strane — i sa sjevera i juga.

Kako se ne zaljubiti u Gdinj, kad i cvijeće raste iz krovova kao da govori:
„Ovdje mi je lijepo. Pogled je savršen.“

Ovo nije poziv.
Gdinj ne traži pažnju.
Savršen je upravo takav kakav jest.
Mjesto gdje usporiš jer su ceste uske kada siđeš s trajekta u Sućurju.
Mjesto koje pronađu samo rijetki.
Mjesto koje ponekad i otok zaboravlja.

Kao onaj cvijet na krovu, i Gdinj je našao svoje mjesto — s pogledom i u tišini.
..........

I fell in love with this small, mostly unknown place with a strange name, hidden on the island of Hvar.
I fell in love with its history, with its traditions.
The narrow old streets, the stone houses, and the Štrada — the heart of the village.

And then, there's the nature.
Tall cypresses, fields of lavender, immortelle, and rosemary.

As if that weren't enough, this hidden gem of Hvar chose to have the island’s most beautiful coves and beaches.
I couldn’t even count them all.
The sea embraces them from both the north and the south.

How could one not fall for Gdinj, where even flowers grow from rooftops as if to say:
“It’s beautiful here. The view is perfect.”

This isn’t an invitation.
Gdinj doesn’t ask for attention.
It’s perfect just as it is.
A place where you slow down because the roads are narrow.
A place that only a few find.
A place even the island sometimes forgets.

Like that flower on the roof, Gdinj has found its place — with a view and in blessed silence.
