I’m Nevena, a writer and Belgrade native who now splits my time between Serbia and the UK. I’ve been living between two countries for 8 years, which means I understand Belgrade from both sides: as someone who grew up here, and as someone who had to rediscover it through expat eyes.

That dual perspective shapes everything I write. I cover expat life in Belgrade in depth, the things no guidebook tells you, like how to navigate the healthcare system, where to find reliable childcare, what property buying actually involves for foreigners, and how much things really cost when you live here rather than just visiting. I’ve done most of this myself, which means my guides are based on real experience, not research from a distance.

I also write about Serbia and the wider Balkans as a travel destination, a region that still surprises people with how much it offers. I’ve taken 35+ solo trips across Serbia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Croatia and Romania, and I speak Serbian, English and conversational Romanian.

Belgrade is one of Europe’s most underrated cities, and I’ve made it my mission to change that, one honest, practical guide at a time.
