Slovenia Dos and Don'ts

This small Slovene town is renowned in the country for the buria, or Adriatic winds that rip inland from the coast making some of the best prosciuto (prsut) in the world, but also making the locals weigh down their roofs with rocks.

Piran is one of the most beautiful world cities. It is under UNESCOs protection. Only locals can enter with cars, otherwise it's close for traffic because of the narrow streets covered with cable stone. It is possible to ride a bike or scooter inside the city. There are lots of places to stay. For young travelers the best option is a hostel behind a lighthouse.

not an amazing hostel, but amazing hiking and lovely lake. It's almost like a cut-price switzerland in relation to the landscape. Cheap beer and beautiful views, and very friendly locals.
I'd recomend this as a stop off, but head to lake Bohinj for a truely breathtaking part of europe.

Where Lahinja meets Kolpa. There is a camping nearby and accommodation in The town of Metlika

I love this city, and that is roughly what its name translates into English. One of Europe's smallest capitals, but IMO one of the best. It's clean and tidy and very welcoming with music and singing and a relaxed atmosphere. Some great eating places too. Nearby Lake Bled has to be visited for the awesome views. I try not to repeat-visit any destinations but if I had to, I'd definitely come here again.
