OUR STORY,
ONE STEP AT A TIME
FORAdventure began with a simple idea: to slow down, explore deeply, and connect - with nature, with people, and with the place we call home. We're a small team of Istrian locals who turned a love for hiking, food, and storytelling into meaningful experiences for curious travelers. Every trail we walk, every view we share, and every bite we serve is part of a journey that’s still unfolding.
ABOUT US
FORAdventure was founded by Sara in 2021, after years spent working in professional kitchens. While cooking has always been her great passion, she soon realized she was missing nature, movement, and real connection with the people enjoying the food she made. The long hours, enclosed spaces, and constant rush led her to take a step back and return to what fulfilled her most: being outdoors.
That’s how the idea for a project was born - one that would combine two deep loves: nature and food, blended into one meaningful, local experience. FORAdventure offers small, intimate tours that explore the beauty of Istria at a slower pace, with attention to detail and a taste of the region.
In 2022, Sara launched the first Full Moon Gastro Yoga event, a summer evening experience combining nature, silence, and good food under the stars.
Today, FORAdventure runs a variety of small seasonal projects and experiences in and around Pula. While Sara leads most of them herself, she’s often joined by friends who share the same love for the outdoors, movement, and genuine human connection.

Sara has hiked across Portugal, kayaked around Croatian islands, and completed the 100 Miles of Istria trail race in the 65 km category. Her love for movement is matched by her love for photography, video storytelling, and capturing the soul of nature in quiet moments.
