Slovenia: We ❤️ You! It is difficult to put our thoughts into words. This is a very clean and organized country. It feels comfortable and familiar here. The way of life is similar to ours, yet different. The mountains and countryside are very beautiful. Lovely Ljubljana is, well, lovely and lively. It feels peaceful yet stimulating. There is a slightly hip energy and a strong sense of historical and national pride. The economy seems to be thriving and success is attainable. Family is important. Sloveians seem happy and satisfied. They are kind, curious and friendly. They are sensible and hopeful. This was a “feel good” place, for sure. Maybe, my favorite thus far. In Slovenia, I am a pensioner NOT a senior citizen. I ❤️ That!!!! I embraced the title and took the discount!!!! Ljubljana is often referred to as the “Paris of The Balkans” and it is deserving of that title.
