Tour guide – to make your journey lovely

Travel writer – to make you feel like on a lovely journey

Born in 1990 in Vojvodina, Serbia. Sure, not the best time to arrive on the ex-YU scene. Due to the explosion of neighborly love that took form in the so-called Homeland war, my Croatian family moved to Zagreb, Croatia in 1994. This is where I graduated and started my job as a tourist guide for the ever-increasing number of travelers around this intriguing, passionate, beautiful place: my home – the Balkans.

Even though my work requires a more ”mainstream” approach in tourism, I always like to take a look on ”the other” side of postcard attractions and see the people, their ways, mentality, thoughts, politics, language, jokes, to feel the vibe of a place.

From the moment I was ”legal” to, aka turned 18, I sat on a plane and headed for Cuba. After Cuba came bedouin festivals in Africa, demonstrations in Greece, football world cup in Russia, volunteering in Palestine… It was all traveling and travel writing (and yet, I claim that travel influencers are a bad influence :)). This resulted in my travel diaries and essays here – most of them were published in Croatian media and are now translated to English.
