About Balkscape
One person. Two homes. One Balkan story.
Where It All Begins
I was born in Serbia, where I still live — but I spent nearly two decades in Montenegro, a place I now feel deeply connected to and truly consider my second home. Balkscape is my way of weaving both worlds into one narrative.
Behind the Scenes
This isn’t a company or a content team. It’s just me. I chose the name, registered the domain, designed every page, and built every detail — from layout and typography to maps, icons, and formatting. I research, write, and edit everything you see here.
A Space with Soul
Balkscape was born out of a simple idea:
To explore and share the real soul of Serbia and Montenegro — not through tourist clichés, but through stories, landscapes, legends, and lived experiences.
I wanted a space that felt personal, honest, and inspiring — where travelers, creatives, and curious minds could discover places worth knowing and feelings worth remembering.
Here, you’ll find:
Curated travel guides & itineraries
Local stories, myths & cultural insights
Nature escapes, city breaks, and hidden gems
Honest reflections and a deep respect for place
Whether you’re planning a trip, daydreaming about one, or just fascinated by the region — welcome.
I’m glad you’re here. ♥
Support this project
Balkscape is a self-funded, one-person passion project — no sponsors, no team, no algorithms. Everything so far has come out of my own pocket. Life in the Balkans isn’t luxurious, and pulling anything out of that pocket isn’t always easy — but it is a life full of soul.
