Slovenia is one of our favorite countries we have ever visited during our retirement travel. Ljubljana, Slovenia checks all the boxes for a city with beauty, cost of living, safety, great summer weather, castles, bridges, other things to see and do, etc. We enjoyed the Farmer’s market, Open Kitchen, walking around the Old Town and enjoying the bridges, and riding the funicular up to Ljubljana Castle.
We also took a day trip to Lake Bled and it is simply one of the most beautiful places on earth. After hiking up to Bled Castle, we made the 4 mile trek around the lake. We stopped and rented a row boat out to the island and visited the historic church. There were so many picture opportunities, that we probably stopped more than we walked, but it is a day we will never forget.
If you are looking for some retirement things to do, look no further than world travel to a great destination like Ljubljana or Lake Bled in Slovenia. We hope you can use this travel guide for Ljubljana and Lake Bled to experience this amazing place for yourself.
We hope you are enjoying our 9-month European adventure and also go back and check out our adventures in Central America and seeing all 50 states during our Airstream journey across America.

ABOUT US:
As the Retirement Travelers, we have always dreamed of traveling, but we never in a million years thought we would become travel vloggers and start a RU-vid channel. But, that is what we did! We work hard every day to become better and create something that others will enjoy. Having a community of friends, old and new, follow our journey is fun and exciting to us.
In 2019, we achieved our goal of visiting every state in the union in our Airstream. We also visited every national park in the lower 48. We are big believers in lists, so of course we plan to see the remaining 12 parks in the next few years.
In 2021, we made the big decision to extreme downsize to just a large and small backpack, each. We started our journey around the world beginning in Central America. We hope that over the next many years, we will have seen many beautiful things, made many memories and new friends, and shared the experience with our children and grandchildren.
We hope you enjoy the journey with us. Drop us a note in the comments and be sure to hit subscribe! 🗺 🎥 🌮

Slovenia is a country that we will definitely visit again. It was clean, beautiful, safe and welcoming in every way. Ljubljana is a wonderful city and Lake Bled is one of the most beautiful places on the planet! Let us know if you liked Slovenia as much as we did. 🇸🇮❤️ John and Bev

Slovenia, one of those countries I definitely plan to revisit, I was there in 2019! I didn’t get to Ljubljana, we were in Bled & Bohinj. I did that entire trip (Albania, Montenegro, Croatia & Slovenia) to get to Bled Island/the church on Lake Bled & we had a farewell reception at Bled Castle. A bit of trivia, I caught sight of Bled Island on a Hallmark Christmas movie ‘Crown for Christmas’ believe it or not, I recognized the steeple; another bit of trivia, Slovenia is the only country with L-O-V-E in its name…SLOVENIA! 👍🏽❤ Happy travels!

Great video. Slovenia is one of my favorite countries I've had the pleasure of visiting. It is beautiful, has amazing hiking, and the Slovene people are very friendly. In my opinion, it may be the most underrated country in Europe. That church in the middle of Lake Bled is a popular venue for weddings. It has an old urban legend: the marriage will last if the groom can carry the bride up the steps leading to the church. Thank you for sharing. Continued safe travels. Have a wonderful time in Belgrade.

I was in Bled in the summer of 1985 (when I still lived in the Netherlands). I stayed in a youth hostel. I didn't visit the island, so I'm glad you gave me a peek there. I'm going to subscribe to your channel.

I was fortunate to spend 2 weeks in Slovenia back in 1996 as part of a college missions trip. This was just a few years after the collapse of Yugoslavia. The people were amazing and it remains as the most amazing trip I have made in my life. Love your videos and your energy.

LOVED the lake and the church! I’m so glad you got to ring church bells, Bev! I got my first chance last year here in England and was so excited! Then I had another cheeky little go at a tiny very old church at the beginning of the summer. And then in June I finally had a proper lesson from the bell ringer on how to do it! It’s actually quite difficult!!!
