Who We Are
pozdrav, Nice to meet you.
We are Dado and Ella. We were both born in Bosnia and escaped during the war, leaving our homes as teenagers with no other option. Ella ended up in Berlin. Dado in the Netherlands. We met and fell in love in 1998 in Belgium.
Since then, we've been looking for a place where we both can feel at home and truly belong. We found this house in Korcula after living together in Utrecht, Rotterdam, and Amsterdam.
We've arrived - we are on the spot where we can both find the peace we've been looking for. The place where we can slow down, ground ourselves, heal, and grow.
Ella is the happiest around Dado and Habibi in the natural surroundings of the Adriatic Sea, reveling in the sights and sounds of the waves. She dislikes confinement and inactivity. Believing that adulthood necessitated a 'serious' career, she initially pursued Multi-Media Design in Berlin, only to realize her passion for a more creative path, ultimately leading her to the Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague. The constant unrest she felt while working as a Graphic designer led her to discover yoga.
Meanwhile she is a certified Kundalini, Hormone and Yin yoga teacher, loving the contrast of speed, strength and craziness of Kundalini and the slowness and gentleness of Yin Yoga. She enjoys challenging her yoga students, helping them feel strong and open while staying safe and relaxed.
Dado is a stable rock for many. He is a free soul and a wise old man. He is the most happy having his daily routines of reading, writing and exercising and having a long swim for lunch. Following a more linear path in studying, growing and working, he can call himself a skilled professional in IT Architecture. He is great in advising people and asking the right questions no matter how discomforting.
Dado enjoys making everyone feel seen and cared for. He gives attention to details. Supports. Loves to play guitar and swims. We are both enormous animal lovers who appreciate all living beings in all shapes and sizes.
We believe that we complement each other well as hosts of House of Aska i Vuk.
So come and meet us!
