Central Slovenia region

Those of us who live at the foot of the Kamnik Alps can gather our cycling kilometres among the tourist places, of which there are not a few in Upper Carniola. Last Sunday, despite a few clouds in the sky, I set off on a cycling trip from lake to lake, that is from Mengeš to the lake at Preddvor and first to Lake Zbilje, and on the other side […]

Sometimes I regret that, as far as recreation goes, I am not a morning person but rather a late afternoon one, and then time often limits me, at least where cycling is concerned.

I move house up to three times a year. In autumn to the coast, in summer to the capital, and in between for a month or so to Styria. I do not go where the bread is with just my stomach, as the saying goes, but with a car full of boxes, books and everything else. You know how it is – clutter piles up. And when I pack the boxes and sort the essential from the less essential, my running gear […]

Information that will come in handy for you and your little ones this summer […]

There is probably no Slovenian (or at least there should not be:)) who does not know Jurij Vega. He is considered the greatest Slovenian mathematician. Besides that he was also a physicist, a surveyor, a meteorologist and even an artillery officer. Naturally a noble title belonged to him as well. Quite a few things are named after him (Vegova ulica in Ljubljana, the grammar school in Idrija, the primary school […]
