Meet Anabela, the third Serbian I know after Stevan and Novak Djockovic! Haha She captivated me right away with her positive energy and beautiful smile. Coming from a small town in Serbia, China has definitely been quite the adventure for Anabela. Her first idea of China was when her older sister came to China to work as an Au Pair a few years ago, which gave her the opportunity to come visit the country a few times, opening her eyes to what other possibilities were out there. But it wasn’t until after a phone call with her sister that everything really changed for her.
During a rough period in her life, Anabela is presented with the opportunity of coming to China while also attending University online, which was a very clever choice. That allowed her to have new experiences while finishing her studies. She shares her first thoughts about China, how scary that idea was and how it changed over the time being here. Very quickly she realized she needed to step out of her comfort zone and “become one of them” in order to thrive living here!
China allowed her to find another version of herself, a stronger and more resilient version that maybe she would have never find out if she didn’t come here. With a great sense of humor and opened heart, Bela tells us about her ongoing love story, how it is taking care of little children in a strange country, and how she really feels about her journey here. Anabela has really grown as a person from this experience and realized that we don’t need to have everything figured out in life to make the best out of it!
