About: Slovenia
Categories Web, Pictures Comments (4)
Well, Slovenia is nice country, I think. :) Sure -- it's small, and sure -- most people don't know that Slovenia even exists, and those who think they know, are mostly wrong - since they're probably confusing Slovenia with Slovakia (and who could blame them, Slovenia and Slovakia really sounds similar, not to even mention the (crazy) fact, that our flags are identical).
But really, those things aren't so important. The important thing is, that life here is peaceful, nice, easy and full of opportunities. :) The air is (mostly) clean, - the nature it's (mostly) friendly: no extremely dangerous animals, (mostly) no earthquakes, no volcano, no tsunamis. Landscape is colorful, everything from sea to mountains (Alps), caves, lakes, rivers and (mostly I guess) forest ... The climate very favorable: (nicely) hot summers, and winters (with snow!!), between those two very expressive spring and autumn.

Slovenia is part of the EU. And it's developed enough - so that every person can live decent life. Even more, people mostly enjoying good life of middle class. Really. Who could complain?
As far as I think, we can be graceful for being born in such a favorable part of the world. But, are Slovenians generally graceful and happy about it? -- Well, not so much actually. Slovenia is ranked on (amazing) fourth place on suicide list. Depressing, eh?
So, anyway. :)
I took some pictures, near to where I live, but they were all quite bad. So, rather than posting them, I jump to the net, and look if I can find anything better. And actually, - I did. I found quite a lot of really nice photos on DeviantArt, so I created a nice collection (click on link to see it) there.
