About us
Ivana founded J2Collection to share her insatiable thirst for travel and adventure, and her ingrained love and passion for people and cultures. She believes that human connection is all that matters; great journeys are those that forge connections with the destination and ultimately fortify the soul.
Ivana’s own journey began in New York’s travel industry at just 21. Since then, her travels have taken her to many corners of the globe, including meaningful time spent in Costa Rica, Sri Lanka, Ibiza, Japan and Indonesia. Her home country Croatia called her back, though, and with her worldly experience and a renewed sense of purpose, she founded Journey2Croatia, followed by Journey2Montenegro and Journey2Slovenia. Now, J2Collection brings her passions and expertise together under one roof.
