Host Introduction

Mr and Mrs Bartulović are well known Remote Year friends. We are going to visit them at their home in the village Blato na Cetini.  Best thing about that is that Remotes have been literally the only non-Croatians in that village since it’s definitely not toursity place. So Mr Bartulović sort of became famous in his village because of that. Trust me, he is looking forward to meeting you!
