Ana Bicanic
Hi there! My name is Ana, I am 26 years old and I come from Belgrade, Serbia. Growing up I would travel a lot with my parents who love to dive. I knew from very early on that I want to be in travel business.
I was introduced to the Japanese culture in my teens- through Studio Ghibli movies- and immediately fell in love with it! That made me love and explore the whole Asian continent. I travelled extensively through Asia but Japan and Indonesia stole my heart.
I love learning about local life, food and culture of these two, very different island countries and I feel so blessed to have been able to live here and share the knowledge I have to help others experience all the amazing things these wonderful countries have to offer.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"I specialize in Indonesia. I spend a lot of time engaging with locals and learning about their culture, trying all the foods available and going to all the known as well as hidden gems Indonesia has to offer. I also know all the best spots for surfing."
How did you get involved in travel?
"I choose tourism major in High school and due to it I've done a lot of practices at hotels, travel agencies and even the Belgrade Tourism Fair, which made me fall in love with the industry."
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"The most amazing experience for me so far was seeing a Dugong come up to say hi to me while surfing at the amazing Padang Padang beach in Uluwatu, Bali."

This was such an amazing trip! It was exactly what I wanted, and Ana arranged everything perfectly - the pace, accommodations, and activities were all stellar. I had one driver for the entire trip, Wayan, who was also amazing. My specialist, Ana, even met me for a coffee one day and showed me around a bit. Couldn't recommend highly enough!

Hello dear Bobbe,
Thank you so much for time you've put in writing this review! It really means a lot to both me and future travellers! As well as all the reviews you and your group gave me when we met in Jimbaran. That will be extremely helpful for me in the future!
I also have to thank you for being understanding for all the issues that arose making it so much easier for me to focus on fixing them!
I wish you all the best and I hope to welcome you again in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore or Japan!
