About me


Hi there! I'm Jelena! From Serbia, but temporarily living in Prostejov, Czech Republic. Wife to the great basketball player and man Darko, and mom to Nina. We are moving quite a lot, so I started Life On The Road to track my daily adventures. I have bad memory so I like to write down my thoughts and feelings.
Ex volleyball player.

Blessed.

I love traveling, chocolate and coffee.

3 countries I want to visit

Image
I considered myself the traveler. Few days ago, I was thinking about all the countries I visited so I found online maps where you can check off all the countries you visited. There are many websites you can find, but I used this one   . I started by checking off the countries, and at the end I was able to see the map and some statistics about all my visited countries. When I saw the map and the statistics, I thought "I have seen nothing". I was in 24 countries in 5 continents, which is about 11% of the total number of countries. There are 195 countries in the world. I have some traveling to do. :) I was thinking if I could choose, which three countries I would pick to go to? So here is the list: Belize : This country has been on my dream list for so long. It's located in Central America, bordered by Mexico on the north, and Guatemala on the south and the west. On the east side is the Caribbean sea. It is a small country with population of 387,879 people. They use

Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

 After Tunisia in 2015, we moved to Saudi Arabia. Actually, Darko went straight to Arabia, and Nina and I went back to Serbia to get our visas for Arabia. It took us three months to get visas. I don't know how much you know about Saudi Arabia, but this is a very conservative country. There is no tourist visa, and you can only enter this country for work or if your spouse work there, and you are going to visit him/her. It is a very religious country, and it is known as the birthplace of Islam. Both, Meca and Medina are located in the Saudi Arabia. The entire country is run by Sharia law ( it is derived from the religious precepts, the Quran and the Hadith). The country is very rich, since they are very famous for oil producing. They are world's largest oil producer and exporter. The climate is not the best. At least, I didn't like it. It is too dry, too hot, and too much sand. Arabian Desert is dominating in Saudi Arabia's geography, so the dryness, hotness, and the s

New year, new post, same me

Image
When am I going to catch up with the time?! I know it’s going too fast, I can feel it. But, it seems I cannot realize how fast its passing, and I keep thinking I have time for things, especially for writing this blog. I love writing, and I love writing about our travels and adventures,  but for some reason I cannot continually write. If I could write one post per week, that would be great. 2018 was an interesting year for us. We went to two new countries: Russia and Israel, and we visited two countries we already lived in- Greece and Georgia. My 2018 resolution was to read a book a month, and I did that which makes me very happy. I didn’t read a lot before, and for some reason I didn’t like reading, but I’m glad that changed. There are other resolutions I kept, and two I didn’t: regular exercise and continue  writing. Let’s hope this year will be different. We are currently in Republic of  Georgia, but I would like to write about our adventures from 2018. Just to keep it in order.
