We recommend withdrawing cash and changing it to Euros in your country. If you need to take the balance from the ATM here, there is one 5 minutes from our house.

Croatia is a safe Country, and here everybody still pays in cash. We prefer cash, but if that is not possible for you, let us know, and then we can send you a third bank account, one week before your arrival.

Please note that on arrival, it is only possible to pay in cash ( no cards, no internet transactions )

Here's a suggestion: Consider listening to this course closer to your retreat arrival to keep the teachings fresh in mind. Take a notebook, follow your progress, and write down insights to share (if you wish) during the retreat.
