There’s no judgment here—some parents work full-time and prefer to spend quality time with their children rather than focusing on social media. Some may not be familiar with platforms like Snapchat and TikTok. These factors are important to consider, and there’s no right or wrong answer.

The creation of “The Balkan Voyage” is a deeply personal journey for me, rooted in my heritage and childhood memories. Growing up, my ties to the Western Balkans—specifically Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, and Serbia—shaped my identity and inspired this project.

At Charity for Balkan Children, we believe in the power of education to transform lives. Our recent donation of five wheelchair-accessible tables to JU OŠ Vuk Karadžić in Berane, Montenegro, aims to support students with disabilities.
