    First of all let me tell you guys, I love the two of you so much. Both your personalities make me smile in each video. So glad you two are representing FareDrop. Thank you for sharing Slovenia with us. I had no idea it was such a beautiful country.

    Loved your review ❤❤(and had a laugh 😂 at the pronunciations). Lived near Bled (Lesce/Zirovnica) for 23 years before work brought us to the US. There is so much to see and so happy you got some great weather to enjoy this little slice of heaven. Our daughter had a wedding ceremony at the castle last year for the grandparents, and her US import husband fulfilled the tradition of the groom carrying the bride from the pletna (boat) up the 99 steps on the island. Absolute magic. Keep the videos coming we love them all!!

    • @faredrop
      @faredrop  Месяц назад

      Haha we really tried our best! But, omg that's so cute! We were just talking about that tradition too. I was wondering if grooms still carried brides up the stairs.

What a beautiful country that not many people know about or visit. My husband and I are convinced we should move there now. Haha.

    • @faredrop

      I am originally from Croatia and moved here couple of years ago and it is the best place for living and working. A lot of my friends from US already moved here also. The only drawback is the real estates which are higher than in Austria or Italy and close to Switzerland but hey...the new house cost us around 1 mio eur and it's nothing special but like I said - the quality of living is well worth the price od housing market...

    OMG wow! Slovenia was already on my travel wish list ever since I saw an episode of Chef's Table centring on a female chef with a beautiful restaurant up in a Slovenian valley somewhere, and I knew about Lake Bled, but I was STILL blown away! Those drone shots of Lake Bled literally made me well up a little and I want to go everywhere! 🥹

    Great video! My husband and I spent a week there in August. We rented a car and made Ljubljana our home base since as you said it is such a small country. I would recommend also visiting the mercury mine in Idjira (UNESCO World Heritage Site) as well as Lake Bohinj which is much more wild than Bled. We did not visit the caves (there are 2, the one you visited and another one which is a UNESCO site) because we personally thought that 30€ was way too much.

      There are two very famous cave systems (Škocjan and Postojna + several others), but there is more than 15.000 caves. Caves cataster of Slovenia currently holds 15.479 caves.

      We were going to do Lake Bohinj. It was either go there or go to the coast, but we talked about it and decided it would be a similar enough experience to Lake Bled that we should prioritize experiencing the coastal towns. Next time we're back, Lake Bohinj will be one of our first stops.
