As you probably guessed, there are two of us (that’s why we need 2 tickets). 🙂
Gašper (writing) and Maruša (photographing) from Slovenia. Small, but beautiful country on the sunny side of Alps (we will try to share some of it on this blog).
We have steady jobs, which we really like, no kids and are in our best years (around 30). With steady jobs we are not able to travel year round, but we think that we still manage to pack our bags quite often. We try to combine our vacations and traveling with national holidays to get as many free days to travel as we can (unfortunately holidays usually mean higher prices). Until now we were able to see many places this way.
Our travel blog is a bit different. We have done quite a lot of traveling before starting a blog. We are not all-year round travelers (wish we could be), but we travel quite frequently. Probably some of you will ask: why didn’t you blog before?
Yeah really, why now?
We have never seen our travels as something that we would share. Our opinion is that traveling is for the people traveling. But for every trip, we do a lot of research (well, Maruša does, I am more like a tourist) of what to see and what to do. We don’t check just travel guides, but we do a lot of research on web, also we read a lot of blogs. Getting ideas from other blogs and not sharing yours sound a bit selfish, I know. So here is your answer to why now:
- We would like to share our trips with our friends (so dear friends, no need for “How was it?” questions, here you will find your answers). 🙂
- We would mostly like to give something back to community. Our trips were kind of special, where we saw some things that guides are not mentioning it. Now we are sharing them, so that others can see and visit.
We hope that you will like our blog. We would be very glad if you comment and correct our mistakes, so that we can share correct and accurate information to others.
Wow – if we didn’t know better, reading your intro, we would’ve thought you were writing about us 🙂
Glad to have stumbled across your blog! Look forward to your future travels! Off to explore more of your blog now!!

Thanks for stopping by my blog. You two sound like a great couple – the kind I’d like to meet on my travels. I am travelling to Slovenia in a few weeks, what are the must see places? I was thinking of stopping by Lake Bled and the Capital?

How much time are you planning to stay in Slovenia? Ljubljana and lake Bled are definitely worth visiting. Maybe consider stopping at Lake Bohinj (only 15 minutes driving away from Bled) as well. It’s more tranquil than Bled. The water is clearer and better for swimming. Vintgar Gorge besides Bled is also beautiful. You can check the photos on their site: http://www.vintgar.si/gorge.html
If you have time, Postojna cave is also a must (http://www.postojnska-jama.eu/en/?setLocale=en_US). It’s number one attraction in Slovenia. Maybe you’d like to go to the sea side as well. Piran is picturesque little town, where you can get lost between the narrow streets and lanes.
We hope this helps. If you have any more questions, we’d be happy to help.
Have fun 🙂
