Slovenia aka: Slovenija

Visit small village of Solčava in Kamniško-Savinjske Alpe and have “Karst Pizza” at local pub. Of course, don’t forget to order Laško Beer.

Nice small country.

We had a 10 days of Family trip with my love one and our two kids, it was great. it is very nice place to travel with small kids. The people are very nice and helpful

Very intersting, still has some un-rest, but that adds to the flavour!

We explored the western half for about a week. It’s all charming. Ljubljana has all these wonderful little touches of art everywhere…stair treads, railings, storm grates, and other everyday things are whimsically designed but not in a loud ‘look at me’ way. It’s subtle and fun. Even the graffiti adds to the effect.

We stayed on a tourist farm in the country SW of Ljubljana and I loved that. People still have one family small farms. Many of them have working horses. The countryside is lovely and the sights amazing (Postojna and Predjama this trip).

We stayed in Bled and the alps are beautiful. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t as good there. It’s more touristy than the other parts of Slovenia we saw, but in an old fashioned way for the most part. (We were visiting in ‘shoulder season’ so the touristy-ness might be more oppressive in the summer.)

If you go I’d recommend that you try and learn a few phrases in Slovenian (Good day, thank you, please/your welcome, and how to ask whether they speak english). We traveled with a couple that didn’t learn any and although it wasn’t necessary to survive, it did really impress the Slovenians and they tended to be even more kind and friendly with us. (They were definitely not unkind otherwise, but there was a kind of dealing with tourists wall up with those who only spoke English, that dropped with only a few Slovenian phrases.)

We drove through hillsides on our way to croatia and stayed overnight at a bed and breakfast. Very green and picturesque!

its boring

weeeellll this is super-country with super people and super-nature and super-weather and my lovely rains and fogs. I like this country a lot

Do you want a truly old-world European experience without the high cost, hassle, and anti-American sentiment? Travel to Slovenia!! It has the best of Europe: a beautiful alpine mountain region, a gorgeous coastline, and magical cities. Everything you could want but without the high prices of London, Paris, and Rome!

I visited Piran, Bled Lake, and Ljubljana-the first two being breathtaking.
