It’s the most exciting time to be working, self-employed, in a career-transition or side hustlin’.
Unlike the days when I started, when it was work, save, travel, return… sometimes to the drudgery and dread of a modern day dungeon (the humble cubicle). Not so any more.
I founded Saltwater after taking my job with me, and not wanting to be alone in an apartment. And a lot of research into ergonomic chairs, indoor plants and office feng shui. I’ve been involved in community events since I can recall. The Art of Gathering inspires me – and making conscious choices to the time we have – be it alone to focus, or in company, making meaningful connections. Everything we do is so you can get out and seize the opportunities in front of you.

Our story has been seen in print, TV and online, documenting the rise of coworking, women-led business and the heritage connection between Australian Croatians. Heart.
From starting in a small office in Split, I’m now working on projects with some of Croatia’s iconic cities, helping reframe a direction to sustainable tourism, longtermism and connection.
I grew up in Canberra, the Australian capital. Now I’m based between Australia and Croatia’s stunning coastline – meeting people from around the world every day.
Our main office, and key collaborators are in the Croatian Chamber Economy building on Split’s waterfront. We work with seasonal partners to offer winter coworking and coliving at Split Hostel, and in Summer, we add partner locations with our hotel and restaurants, and our outdoor Beach Office on Bacvice.
