We are two Aquarius living in the Alps.
If you are traveling to Ljubljana by car, there are a few things that you should know while driving in the Slovenian capital. Whether you are driving your own car or you're renting one, it’s always nice to be prepared and enjoy a safe and pleasant trip.
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.
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?
After installing the new windows last year, our old house renovation continues. Will the house collapse? We have to knock down a wall on the first floor, but it's a 40-year-old house, and we are not sure if the house construction is stable enough.
We have almost half a meter of snow after a very heavy snowfall. Yesterday it was snowing during the whole day, and it kept snowing at night. We had to make a way to our garden, cleaning lots of wet snow.
Our new home is in a small village surrounded by a beautiful forest. It’s the first snowfall since we moved here, and we are going on a walk. Nature looks magical -trees covered with snow, a peaceful and quiet forest.
In autumn we planted some hardy vegetables and left them covered, hoping this will protect them during the cold days. Then we left the house and came back in January for some house reconstruction work.
Our dream about having a house in Slovenia started in 2009. At that time we used to live in Spain, and once, travelling across Europe, we took a wrong way and entered Slovenia. We actually did not realise where we were, so we had to check on the map what this beautiful place we were crossing was.
