2.In his youth,Zarko worked as a steelworker in Zenica,but decided to try his luck in Germany after he divorced 30years ago.He worked different jobs for many years,but 10 years ago he was sent back to Bosnia for working and living in Germany illegally.Unfortunately,Zarko's apartment had been destroyed during the Bosnian War.With no savings to buy a new place,and no one to turn to for help,he eventually ended up in a small mountainside cave that had once been used by miners to store explosives.It was meant to be a temporary arrangement,but he's been living there for 10 years.Zarko never asked for help from the state.He has survived on his own,and despite the obvious downsides(缺点) of living in a cave for such a long time,he says that there are benefits as well."People always find something to fight about,so it's better to live alone,"Zarko says,although he isn't technically by himself.He shares his modest home with 13 deserted dogs which he feeds every day with bones from the local butcher shop.
He usually checks the dustbins three times a day,and almost always finds something to eat,but on bad days,he can buy himself some food with the money he makes by cutting wood for the locals.
The caveman says he likes his home,but also admits that he looks forward to getting his pension in three years.He says he's in good health and can definitely survive another three years,when he will actually be getting two pensions,one from Bosnia and another from Germany.He hopes to be able to finally afford a proper home.
