I belong to generation “X”. I always had a lot of belief in books, but I also, luckily, had an even greater need to check out everything in practise.

The International Women’s Club has been in existence for many years and has brought together women who are in Belgrade temporarily, either as members of the diplomatic community or for business reasons, and a number of local women who may have spent many years living abroad and have come back to live in Serbia and wish to keep those international connections
