Forget Dubrovnik-live like locals in Šibenik, Croatia

In what was definitely one of our favorite in-home chef experiences worldwide, we hooked up with two incredible locals at the Šibenik Marketplace, where they led us through the process of shopping for fresh ingredients to make an authentic Croatian meal at our incredible seaside villa in Primošten Croatia.

ABOUT US.
We’re the Lockwoods: a family with 3 kids, 5 careers, and endless passion for adventure. Two years ago, we decided it was time for Phil's ad agency to abandon the in-person, 5-day workweek. So they 86’d the office and work hours, allowing our own family to start traveling almost constantly. We now work, school, and explore in a different place every week-from our own mountain and beach homes to exotic villas, resorts, and yachts around the world. As we experience and support diverse cultures, we hope to inspire more families to design a life of freedom and adventure.
Because there’s a new American Dream. It’s one that’s void of templated expectations, templated career paths, templated education, templated families, templated homes, and templated lives. Freedom is no longer an American tagline-it’s just the new, global way of life.
Every day that you spend doing something that doesn’t fulfill you to your core, you’re living your life on pause. You’re deferring genuine family time with no guarantee that there will be a tomorrow or a someday. Some people follow that mentality their entire lives. We’ve chosen to never live that way again.
We appreciate you following our journey. The more our channel grows, the more time we can spend traveling to more locations, contributing to these cultures, highlighting local businesses, and sharing inspiring stories from these communities. So please consider liking, commenting, and subscribing so that you can stick with us for the long haul.

By far, one of my favourite culinary experience! You guys are just amazing, it was like I'm cooking for friends! Wishing you all the best and can't wait to meet you again! And don't forget - the soul is in your belly! ❤️

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

You were cooking for friends! 😘 By the time we ate, it felt like you and Tina were part of the family. I’ll never forget “the soul is in the belly” and I’ll think of you every time I say it.

[@lockwoodphil]

Those two ladies need their own TV show. It would kill.

[@powderskier5547]

Croatia is an awesome country, will definately be coming back

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

We definitely fell in love! ❤️ Croatia!

[@moorelifeandtravel]

I’ve always wanted to visit Croatia! It’s gorgeous and what a life!!👍

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

The beauty there was striking! But my favorite favorite part about the country were how amazing the people are.

[@paulhofer3071]

This video is soooo awesome! I wonder why you don’t have 150.000 views 🤪😁no but really… your Channel is awesome! I have to check the other videos! Hope you guys will visit Croatia 🇭🇷 this year AGAIN in summer 2022 maybe OPATIJA, RABAC, ZADAR and so on Or Monaco 🇲🇨 Dubai and Los Angeles 😀👍🏻😇

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Thank you! 🤗 We hope you love our other videos too. We have so much more to see of Croatia and the world. We’ll be taking every opportunity we get to see it all :)

[@davidapacjr1989]

Had no idea Croatia had oceans like that! Such a beautiful country!

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

It’s gorgeous! The Adriatic Sea is my favorite body of water. The colors are stunning.

[@dchanchy436]

Thank you for promoting my country like this :)

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

We LOVE Croatia. And the people we met there are amazing 🤩

[@dchanchy436]

Since you were in Primošten it's a shame you didn't try Pašticada, hobotnica pod pekom, brudet... Each region has it's own special dishes, my favourite is in region of Slavonija/Baranja where the main dishes are čobanac, fiš paprikaš, kulen, čvarci, šaran na rašljama, and all kinds of meat including wild boars, deers... the cheapest region in Croatia, about 50% cheaper that Adriatic, cause it doesn't have sea, but as a local from Zagreb, Slavonija/Baranja is a place I am rather visiting, food is out of this world, its a beautiful green part of Croatia, and i often go hiking there. Coast is too touristy but yea, obviously most beautiful Region :)

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

@@dchanchy436 sounds incredible. It just makes us realize there’s so much more of Croatia for us to taste and experience.

[@SanjaLydia]

You go girlsss, can't wait for the bistro

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

I bet! They’re an amazing team. Wish we could come back for the opening 😋

[@olgaraffa1]

I love her happy food dance, I❤️Croatia! I like that they give back to the fish.. what a way to honour their lives and souls, given up for your good health!

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

We ❤️ Croatia too! 🤗 We couldn’t help but fall in love with every part of it.

[@LearningLane3456]

Stunning !!! love your videos

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

We so appreciate that! Thank you :)

[@barbarawalsh3690]

I LOVE this day!

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

So did we! Felt like home 🥰

[@sanjaprka4127]

🌊🌊🌊🔝🇭🇷

[@michaelpanic281]

The city of Šibenik is pronounced She-ba-nick. The S has an accent making the sound Sh. Great video. Txs. Hvala lijepa. You are headed to Krka Falls - kirk-ka. Another beautiful adventure in Croatia! Cannot wait to return to my Croatia - sretan put - happy travels.

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Thank you! We loved everything about Croatia we got to see and we know there’s so much more. Thank you for the pronunciation lesson 🤗 I appreciate all the help I can get.

[@Indianinthemachine]

Ooooh what a surprising episode as last week you were in San Diego or so it seems hehe. I love the simplicity of it all, and the beautiful waterfront... the gifting back to nature with the fish head and tail... but honestly, I would have made a garlic vegetable soup broth with it hehe... nature gets everything back eventually. Cheers to the good life fam. :)

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Haha, yes! San Diego was a couple weeks ago now but we got this episode out in just a few days, so we compacted our timeline a bit 😊 LOVE your soup broth idea ❤️ Hope you’re having a great week!

[@barbarianblood2316]

I’m a Cro-merican and I’ve never been there. I gotta get there! Great video🤘

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Thanks. It’s such a beautiful country with beautiful culture.

[@justevalang9473]

Awesomeness ❤🎉

[@janetceniza8091]

speaking again - my first trip to Cebu, 1978 - the city certainly was not so advanced yet. In Carbon Market, you would see meat hanging by hooks, no refrigeration in the small shops and maybe the clerk would be sleeping on top of the counter.By our 3rd trip more stores were getting stand up refrigerators and today all large stores are as modern as in the U.S.

[@danielk9666]

I miss the Food have to wait 2 month for our vacation btw ,nice to see my aunt in your Video at 6:14 🥰

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Martina and Tina are amazing! 🤩

[@janetceniza8091]

husband speaking English is the language of the world, but in America our kids are not taught at least one other language unless the parents do it.

[@jond1667]

Really enjoy all your videos. Could you please tell me more about the villa you rented in Croatia?

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

We stayed there through our travel club, Inspirato. You can get a little more information on it at www.followabc.com/pass. We can connect you with someone who can give you all the details about the program.

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

But it was a 3-bedroom (3-king configuration, but one of those can be separated into two twins), 3.5-bathroom private villa with a full kitchen, sauna, indoor/outdoor pool, car port, and as you can see from the footage in this episode, plenty of incredible views of the Adriatic. We're working on our next episode, which has a full walk-thru of the villa and surrounding area. That should launch this Friday, so be sure to subscribe and click the notification bell so you don't miss that one. And thanks for watching and offering your support!

[@jond1667]

Many thanks, looking forward to seeing your further travels in Croatia

[@sanjaprka4127]

There are si many beautiful villas in Istria... it is a part of Croatia, because we divide Croatia by regions into Slavonia, Istria, Dalmatia and Dubrovnik... 🌊🌊🌊🌊👍🇭🇷🙋‍♀️... Pozdrav...

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

There’s a lot more to see in Croatia. I hope we go back to explore more soon.

[@janetceniza8091]

speaking Brooklyn moves like a wet noodle - she would do marvelous in Tae Kwon Do.

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

The kids actually used to do Tae Kwon Do when they were younger. 😊

[@silviah2302]

prsut and bacon are like chalk and cheese

[@itsbravokilo]

Love the video but you pronounced the city wrong every time.

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

That was probably my (Erin) fault. I have such a hard time pronouncing things. It’s something about how it sounds and processes the right sounds to make it. I keep trying to get better.

[@silvanapenzenstadler5904]

Šibenik is pronounced like Shebenick and not Sibenik.

[@AlwaysBeChanging]

Thank you! 😊 I know I didn’t pronounce it correctly at the beginning of our trip, but by the end of our trip I had it down. 👍🏻

[@janetceniza8091]

husband - my wife uses fish heads and tails for soup. It is so not fun to lift a pot lid and see the dead eyes looking up at you. oh yuck. or when she went to Cebu by herself and I am home doing the day care. I go through the house cleaning - finally came to the freezer, i find a paper bag and look inside - all i see are teeth looking up at me. What is this, sure doesn't belong in there. Wife gets home and asks where her pig head is. So that's what it was.
