Summary/Abstract: This paper talks about the experience of working with students at Cultural meetings of European students of the Croatian Studies group "Croati Mundi" which took place in 2007 and this year in hotel Medena in Trogir, Croatia. "Croati Mundi" was conceived as an interdisciplinary, intercultural field education program whose goal is to additionally motivate students to study Croatian through various activities tightly connected to their own interests and talents. By using their own potential during their week-long stay in Croatia, the students have learned, through eight interesting workshops, not only about the language, but also about the culture, tradition and history of the country whose language they decided to study. In a way, the language was used as a specific archaeological site.
