Discovering the Soul of Slovenia!

What an enchanting escape!  Imagine limiting an Italian adventure to just work—unthinkable, right? Currently soaking in the vibrancy of Milan after a blissful pre-DUCO jaunt to the stunning Lake Como.  I spent three magical nights in the breathtaking scenery of Lake Como, and let me tell you, An adventure to remember! 

The weather may have been overcast and rainy, but it didn’t dampen my spirits or the sheer excitement of exploring around every corner of this picturesque paradise. We wandered through the charming towns of Como, Bellagio and Menaggio - each more captivating than the last with their historic streets and cozy cafes. While short jaunt, I was illuminating to discover the difference in accommodations. I feel even more confident today to pair the right client with the right town and accommodation.   

The weather ... actually encouraged me to slow down and enjoy the luxurious stay at Passalacqua , the perfect antidote for jet lag, beginning with a Jetlag spa experience and ending with a Michelin star dinner-and discovering a new favorite Toscana wine, Promis. Passalacqua was simply an unexpected magical beauty! I was truly spoiled beyond measure. 

And speaking of unexpected beauty, I can’t wait to take you somewhere just as enchanting but even more undiscovered…Slovenia.

In this week’s newsletter, I’ll be unveiling the soul of Slovenia, a country rich in culture, breathtaking landscapes, and hidden gems waiting to be explored. Slovenia is a destination that surprises and captivates.

Discovering Slovenia's Soul

Slovenia presents a sanctuary of understated beauty. It's a land where emerald rivers wind through ancient valleys, where medieval towns hold stories in their cobblestones, and where nature and city both seem to carry a sense of peace. Unlike the bustling capitals and crowded landmarks of more familiar destinations, Slovenia invites you to slow down, to breathe, and to truly experience the moment.


Bled Lake Slovenia




Moments of Serenity at Lake Bled

Lake Bled, a glacial gem within the Julian Alps, offers a scene of remarkable tranquility. At its heart, the island church, accessible by traditional pletna boats, stands as a testament to centuries of history.  The surrounding landscape, a protected natural area, ensures the pristine quality of both the lake and its environment. It's a destination that seamlessly blends natural beauty with historical significance, offering visitors a moment of peace amidst Slovenia's rich cultural heritage.

Ljublijana's Vibrant Heart Explore Ljubljana, Slovenia's charming capital. Stroll along the Ljubljanica River, cross the iconic Triple Bridge, and visit the bustling Central Market, a sensory feast of local produce and crafts. It's a place where you can connect with the city's spirit. Ascend to Ljubljana Castle for panoramic city views, and immerse yourself in the city's lively cultural scene.
