We are two Aquarius living in the Alps.
It’s again this time of the year - Christmas season! So many kids asked for snow, and Santa delivered! Outside it is snowing, and we have sat here on the first floor of our unfinished house looking back at the passing year and the best things that happened to us.
We have been to Ljubljana so many times but never had the chance to go and see Ljubljana castle. It has been always something else that needs doing or fixing and we have been postponing this visit for a long time.
When we bought our house, we saw that in our garden, we have a persimmon tree. The first autumn it gave so many persimmons, and we started thinking, what are we going to do with so many fruits that we don’t like eating?
Passing by a billboard around Dolenjske Toplice, we saw the ad that they will have this festival to mark the apple harvest. We love apples, so why not go and see what Slovenians do at such events?
Our first two winters in the house we bought were very cold. The first thing we did when we got the keys was to disconnect the old hazardous diesel heating system and remove all the ugly radiators and pipes. They looked really awful, but then we did not know the real state of the house roof.
