Jelena

We are expatriate family from Serbia and Croatia. We have been living in several countries around the world and our children were born in different places. We never did home exchange before but me and my husband met while couchsurfing years ago. We are still active in hosting travelers in our home, where ever it is, and sharing experiences. We have our apartment in Aqaba and coastal home in Croatia (which is in process of renovating and for a while not available). We are experienced travelers and world explorers that appreciate getting to know local community, nature and local food and wine. We are spontaneous family looking for new adventures and prone to last minute traveling. I might work to change that as it doesn't work for now on PLU. The whole family enjoys hosting as it gives us possibility to share more than just a home. We did plenty on different platforms.
