If you ever revise this video. I would add info about purchasing the car permit that is necessary to drive on the highways. Many European countries require them, and Slovenia is no exception. There is usually a place to purchase the permit at the first exit once entering the country. Some also offer it online. Check it out or you can pay a big fine. Slovenia is a great place to visit, though. In 8 weeks of European travel a couple of years ago, the 3 best meals we had were all in Slovenia!

Hi Vedran, how does Slovenia compare with Montenegro in terms of climate, nature and general living? Interested in visiting the Balkans this year!

@jorgeeduardodussanvillanue46 2 года назад

@@SergioGarcia-cn2kd Slovenia is in general more expensive than Montenegro, Montenegro's natural beauty consists mostly of beaches, a lot of people from the Balcans choose Montenegro as a place to spend some days of the summer in because of their great beaches. In the other hand, Slovenia's natural beauty is mostly mountains, rivers and lakes. Montenegro also has its mountains but Slovenia is just miles ahead in terms of hiking (Slovenia is comparable to other traditional Alpine hiking nations, Austria, Switzerland, North Italy, and it is cheaper than all of them). In terms of climate, Slovenia is not precisely Mediterranean except for a couple of coastal cities, it is therefore a little colder and rainier than Montenegro, but also far greener in the spring/summer/fall. Hope that helps :)

@ericpmoss 3 года назад

Slovenia is great. Hiking near Triglav is amazing. The kocas are great places to eat in the hills. The trains are nice and clean. The dairy and honey are astounding, and the central market in Ljubljana is world-class for produce -- not quite the variety you'd find in Italy, but the quality is amazing. The people are super-great. I lived in a tiny village up north and bought fresh milk straight from my neighbor's cow -- best milk ever, anywhere. Oh, and the bicycle highway into Italy -- 'nuff said.

@geoffpoole483 2 года назад

Slovene is a Slavic language so anyone who's visited Poland, Czech Republic or Slovakia will pick up similarities in vocabulary. The same applies to other Balkan nations. Slovenia has one of the highest literacy rates in the world. For obvious reasons the locals won't expect a tourist to speak Slovene but knowing a few words and phrases is always appreciated. Although not in Slovenia Trieste has a Slovene legacy and is easily accesible. The border between Slovenia and its neighbours who are all EU states is non-existent these days.

I wouldn't say that's entirely accurate. Ukrainian is still an eastern Slavic language which shares commonality with Russian and Belarusian (plus Ruthenian and Rusyn). I'm from L'viv, and know that western Ukraine was dominated by the Poles for a long time. Hence the somewhat bastardization of our language. No hate towards the Poles or Russians, but the latter are truly our native brothers and sisters, not the Poles.

Slovenian is a Slavic language, that's why knowing French or German or Spanish doesn't help. It uses the Latin alphabet, but it's a Slavic language nonetheless, so knowing Russian is more useful. However, Slovene is part of the South Slavic group, along with Bulgarian and Serbo-croatian, whereas Russian is East Slavic, so there are quite a few differences. But there are words that are the same in Russian and Slovenian - like water (voda) or flower (cvet).
