TV Host Anita Martinović and Partner Aleksej Škarica Join 'Asia Express: Dragon's Route' Reality Show

TV host Anita Martinović, known from "Gospodin Savršeni" (Mr. Perfect), is set to introduce her partner, Slovenian entrepreneur Aleksej Škarica, to the public in a new reality show. The couple will compete in "Asia Express: Dragon's Route," a format designed to put their relationship to the ultimate test.

A promotional video released by the couple teases their upcoming adventure, stating, "Anita and Aleksej are ready to get to know each other in completely new circumstances." The video shows them in relaxed settings as well as during interviews discussing the trials ahead. Both have shared their expectations for the show.

Škarica expressed a desire to see how Martinović, who prefers things to be perfectly arranged, can survive in difficult conditions. Martinović, in turn, anticipates handling the challenges well. "Aleksej is handsome, handsome, very handsome. We have a lot to learn about each other. We are in a kind of challenge as a couple," she said.

Their relationship began casually, with a lunch that unexpectedly extended into dinner. At the time, Škarica was unaware of Martinović's public profile. He recalled his ex-girlfriend mentioning how likable the host was from watching "Ljubav je na selu" (Love is on the farm). Now, they must prove their connection and resourcefulness in unfamiliar settings.

Martinović admits to becoming more impatient with age but is confident in her adaptability and willingness to ask for help. She envisions their roles in Asia: Škarica will manage logistics and strategy, while she will handle communication and negotiations. "Aleksej is smart and resourceful, and I am his weak spot," she explained. For Škarica, who values peace, order, and familiar surroundings, this adventure is a significant step outside his comfort zone. He anticipates that living together in extreme conditions might cause some friction, but Martinović believes it will ultimately bring them closer. "We know how to argue, I think that's normal, but that's exactly why we love each other," she stated.
