Milana

Milana, 28 years old, holds a degree from the Faculty of Law in Novi Sad and is the owner of a cake and pastry workshop. She is married.

In her vision of Serbia’s future, Milana hopes for a country where citizens actively engage in processes that concern them. ‘I envision a nation of engaged individuals, people who desire change and take responsibility for driving those changes. These are people who don’t merely talk about what’s right or wrong but actively contribute suggestions for resolving issues. I firmly believe that a small group of determined individuals can successfully transform the system and lead us to a better future.’

For Milana, the positive aspects of Serbia encompass its people, diversity, and tolerance. ‘First and foremost, I have a deep appreciation for the Serbian people. I believe that people are the heart of any country. Our fellow citizens are renowned for their warm hospitality. Serbia is rich in both cultural and natural diversity, offering much to showcase and explore. It’s through our daily actions, our endeavors, and our contributions that we shape and define our country.’

Milana perceives a significant challenge in Serbia as the lack of interest among people to engage with various topics. ‘The prevalent lack of interest and apathy are concerns I find particularly troubling. Many individuals tend to take things for granted and show little enthusiasm for actively participating. I firmly hold the view that people are the driving force behind a nation. Unfortunately, I observe a lack of awareness, inadequate information, and a tendency to avoid making informed decisions. This leads to disinterest and a tendency to choose the path of least resistance, which, in my opinion, constitutes one of our most significant challenges.’

Milana exudes a positive outlook on life. She consistently focuses on the brighter side of things and strives to share her positivity, motivating others to pursue their aspirations. Her passion lies in culinary arts, creating delightful food experiences for others to savor and enjoy.
