Our story

Like many people from the Balkans seeking adventure and a better life, we made our way across the pond. The large balkan community in the U.S. shares similar struggles—most of all, the longing for home. Since moving to Washington, D.C. in 2021, we’ve been inspired to create a brand that unites the BLKN people and keeps our unique spirit alive, even from afar.

We celebrate resilience, culture, and connection — because no matter how far we travel, we remain one community.
Preko Bare is for us, by us — a reminder that even across oceans, we’re never truly apart.
