Ljubljana
Its pronounced (we think) Loobliana. We arrived yesterday lunch time and after a slight detour into the city centre in search of the campsite (dam you Lonely Planet for your incorrect directions!) we checked into the Laguna Resort campsite which had to ...
Ljubljana
... century church! the castle was like most in Europe on top a hill. we went to the top and were able to see the whole city. Ljubljana is quite small so even from the tower we could see as far as the Julian alps which sort of surround the city. we walked ...
Doma!!
Po dolgem mesecu sva spet doma:). Naj povem se nekaj o najinih zadnjih dneh dopusta. Zadni vecer na Palawanu smo sli s kanadsko-filipinskim parom na super vecerjo. Kar tezko je verjeti, da je sredi malega mesta Puerto Princesa tako dobra in lepa ...
Captain Cave Man
Today we visited the Skojan caves which are about an hour south west of Ljubljana. Due to over estimating the distance and time, we arrived promptly over an hour before the first tour set off. Time for a coffee then to wake us up. The caves were made ...
Loobleeaanaa
i got to my hostel around midday after yet another delightful experience with slovenian immigration police - i managed to convince myself i was doing something illegal. it was a short walk into the centre and the city's famous triple bridge, a bridge ...

Malaysia here I come!!!
My backpack is packed. Have tried to pack light, unsuccsesfully... My only hope is that bringing old clothes and throwing them away as I go and not bothering too much with washing is an effective solution. I'll only be traveling for three weeks, but I ...
Lakes & Caves in Ljubliana
... which is another bridge crossing the main river that has big dragons on either side that have become a type of mascot for Ljubjana. The bridge was also covered with locks, apparently a symbol of peoples love. After ...
A Miniature Europe
... by my hostel and the people running it. And I'm happy to say I was also pleasantly surprised by the city of Ljubljana and Slovenia, or what I saw of it, in general. My first day in Ljubljana I spent walking around the town. Even though my ...
1 Peach. 2 Peaches. 3 Peaches.
So I (along with my luggage) made it to beautiful Ljubljana without any issues. The time actually flew by. It didnt feel like I was on a plane for 8 hours (from Nairobi to Zurich). I guess it helped that I managed to sneak in a few hours of sleep. I ...
Feeling better
Following a disheartening, even slightly depressing day of wandering around Ljubljana, from one vaguely interesting street I've already seen to yet another example of Plecnik's architecture, the city is redeeming itself come evening time as the ...
New Year's Eve
For the first time in as long as I can remember I spent new years eve without drinking one alcoholic beverage. Sooo god damn boring...just jokes. I had a good low key time in the city. Locals were setting of some serious fire ...

Ljubljana
... trip on any cliffhanger though! Having had our fill of Italian men in tight trunks (for now), we've driven north to Slovenia. Did have a night in Italy on the way, stopping near Trieste because Mark thought he'd heard something good about it. It ...
Thunder over Lake Bled
... hostel as me. One is a guy from New Zealand, and the other is a girl from China. We took the bus back to Ljubljana, then walked back to the hostel. It was a good day. This is a very popular hostel, and is full tonight. ...

Tranquilla, molto tranquilla, troppo tranquillzzz
... ferroviari mi abbiocco in treno; mi sveglio appena in tempo per ammirare il lago di Bled, una delle meraviglie paesaggistiche della Slovenia. Il treno successivo arriva in ritardo di mezz'ora, e quando finisco di sistemarmi all'ostello sono ormai le 9 ...
Great things about Ljubljana
... on its "heroes" ... how the people need someone to look up to. Yeah yeah yeah. That's enough raving. Great things about Ljubljana; - It has three beautiful bridges, in the centre of town, all in a row. I stand there wondering which one to use ...
Sleepy, sunny Ljubljana
... hot cocoa and a traditional Slovenian favororite, borovnice (a hot blueberry brandy)! Sunday in Ljubljana is the antidote to Saturday in Ljubljana. Today was, we are told, a typical Sunday in the ...
Heading into the former Yugoslavia
... to sleep. It didn't take long to warm to them though, with them breaking into song every now and again. We arrived in Ljubljana on a sunny Sunday afternoon, we dropped off our packs and headed off to explore this small city. We tell you what it is ...
The home stretch
Suddenly, it's almost the end of the trip...and I haven't done nearly enough shopping *cough*... Slovenia's capital though is a great place to wind down and has a thriving cafe/bar culture, which would have been plain rude to ignore. Suffice to say, not ...
Here we go Luby loo
... us can't wait to get home and see everyone again and another part thinks if we had unlimited spondooleys we could keep going. Slovenia is a relatively new comer on the European stage and it still retains it's rustic charms, long may it last. The people ...

Sleepin in a Jail Cell
So this city wasnt on the original plan, but we thought we couldnt get to Bled without first going to the capital, Ljubljana. Train travel can be pretty complicated and the train station staff are not always helpful. So far we have just ...
U may call her Ljubljana I just call her beautful
... pulled up google maps and the hostel booking website and stated looking for cities qwhich were relatively close and had cheap accomodation. Ljubljana seemed to fit both criteria and would get me temptingly close to venice which has always been on my ...
The last day
"Now my bags are packed, I'm ready to go, I'm standing here outside your door, I hate to wake you up to say goodbye...." Tonight I leave...I'll take the train to Vienna from where I'll fly with Royal Jordanian to Bangkok (via Amman). Can't wait ...

Our final day and concert, in Ljubljana
... in the trip trigger complaints that can become magnified in an instant. Our nine hour trip from Budapest to Ljubljana, Slovenia (five hours longer than projected by our tour company) added greatly to this factor. We were clearly spending two ...
Rugby, racing and beer funnels
... up in a campground and then getting completely shitfaced every night, often without even leaving the campground. I ask Dave how he liked Ljubljana after two days here. "Oh, is that where we are? Haven't really seen it yet". One of the other guys I ...
