I cannot even express how very impressed I am by slovenia.I was expecting a little bit country a little bit like Russia and what I got is actually something so different!!!
So I cross the Slovenian border very early in the morning because Trieste was maybe twenty kilometers from Slovenia,and every cyclist and person I met on the street with smile some of them would wave at me and it's so beautiful everything is green and the houses are so nicely designed, okay it's a little bit cold and I had to put on my sweater and everybody else is just wearing t-shirts and short pants so I guess, well I hope I'm going to get used to this climate soon....
Anyway besides the people being awesome,the roads are good aswell,curvy, and a lot of moutains,but nothing terrible.
And as I progress I meet dozens,A LOT,of people doing similar trips to mine,and it cheers me up so much,at some point in the moutains I saw a guy sitting next to his equipped bike,so I thought "I'm in no rush,I want to talk to him" so I stopped and I did.
As always,amazing person,German guy, he's come all the way from Mexico(well he definitely took ships on the way yes)and he's going now to Croacia and then back to Germany....wow,now that's a long trip!!
I planned to sleep in Trojane today(yes like the computer virus) and thanks to all the moutains I arrived with almost no battery and around 19:30 :/ I entered a bakery(the only opened thing in this tiny village) and asked if I can sit down and charge my phone,the ladies behind the counter smiled and said it's no problem...few minutes later they asked me where I come from,and what am I doing here,so as always in these situations I talked about my journey,and they couldn't quite believe it.Then I was hugged,simply one of the ladies came to me and hugged me!!! Then they offered me food and water and anything I needed,asked where I am going to sleep and after having a long shouting discussion in Slovenian they called a waiter from nearby restaurant(which I didn't know existed) and he told me he can offer my a sofa at his barn...oh I was so happy!!! When he did ished work he helped me with my bike,prepared the sofa,brought a blanket and a pillow,water&food,called his friend and we stayed chatting till half past midnight.What nice people they are,I am loving Slovenians!!!
