SLOVENIA

Slovenia, our home! The only country in the world with the word LOVE in it 🥰

While Slovenia covers a tiny place on our Blue Marble (um, less than 9000 mi2, to be exact), the landscape is so diverse you’ll feel like you’re exploring many countries packed into one!

Charming medieval towns and castles, rich culture and delicious cuisine and wines; incredible waterfalls, mountains, and picturesque lakes  – Slovenia is a place for nature lovers, history buffs, adrenaline junkies, and food enthusiasts –  and it makes a great travel destination throughout all year! 

And let me tell you a secret – Slovenia is way more than just Ljubljana, Bled and Piran. Don’t get me wrong – those places are beautiful, but there are MANY MORE gems with fewer crowds hidden in this pocket country. Let me help you explore Slovenia beyond the beaten path!
