Pešić family lives in the village called Tomaševo, and there are three generations in the house – grandmother Ljilja, her son Vučko with his wife Milijana and their eight children, seven boys and a girl. Life and happiness are something you will experience from the very beginning, for they are the trademark of the family. Every member of the household, even the youngest ones, has its role at the farm, in numerous jobs that have to be done on daily bases. A lot of things to do and zero nervousness, you will witness it for yourself. Milijanka is an excellent housewife, always with a smile on her face and nobody will leave her house hungry.
The basic activity of Pešić family is husbandry, they keep some twenty cows and 15 heifers there, as well as some 10 pigs. They produce layered and rolled cheese, both in high demand. Beside this, they are into beekeeping, they own some fifty bee colonies and they own a garden where they grow vegetables for themselves and for their guests. They also have a small orchard, but it is big enough to gather enough fruit and make brandy for their dear guests.
Pešić household is situated some twenty kilometers away from Bijelo Polje, very close to the regional road Bijelo Polje – Pljevlja. The river Ljubovidja passes by the farm. Also, a marked bicycle trail goes by it, called Top Biking Trail 2. There are a lot of beautiful places where visitors can stroll and then they can take a break next to the river. Not so far away, you will come by the river Lještanica and its stunning waterfalls, as well as attractive but still unexplored Novakovića cave. And finally, the center of the village hosts the Monastery Zlateš. Other monasteries can be visited in the area surrounding the village, as well as the mouth of Ćehotina river.
