A must do experience on island Hvar! - I really like the owners’ passion and their enthusiasm in showing you the local’s way of living in the past. They will greet you in traditional costume and welcome you in their 150year old house. Once you enter the house, it feels like you have travelled to the past and you are standing at the place where the owner’s grandparents used to live. It is not like usual museum but more like a storytelling and you could see, taste, smell and participate. You could use the old mill people used to make corn flour, fix a fish net, use the tool which they use the make wine and so on! I will not spoil everything but it is definitely an experience that you could not miss. What is better knowing the place than meeting the locals!
