    Hi Mary Jane, thank you for showing the Isonzo River, the Eastern part of Friuli and Slovenia! I grew up in Gorizia and we do feel very close to Slovenian traditions and people! ❤️ There is also a slogan that says "go borderless" and refers to the tight collaboration between Gorizia and Nova Goriza to promote this area and connect people. ❤️

    È incoraggiante vedere come quei luoghi si siano ripresi dopo le distruzioni di cui sono stati testimoni e siano divenuti nuovamente belli. Grazie per il video! Spero di poter visitare presto il Friuli e la Slovenia! :)

      Se ti interessano luoghi della Grande Guerra (anche della Seconda) dovresti proprio venire in Friuli. Ci sino molti itinerari che si possono percorrere sia in auto che a piedi per visitare le tracce e i reperti storici. Ne abbiamo davvero molti e gli Alpini stanno facendo un ottimo lavoro nel ripulirli, recuperarli e renderli fruibili al pubblico!

      Era in un chiosco in centro a Bovec, non so se è ancora là o se era temporaneo.
      Io non faccio mai bagni freddi quindi non sono esperta, qui era giugno ed era ancora molto freddo. A naso secondo me l'Isonzo in quelle zone resta piuttosto freddo tutta l'estate, ma sono sicura che farci un bagno di qualche minuto è fattibile. Più che altro è difficile trovare un punto adatto perché quando l'acqua è abbastanza alta tende ad avere correnti molto violente.

    Another well done "mini-documentary", Mary Jane. Interestingly, few people realize that the Alps are distributed over 8 countries, from France to Slovenia. Also less known, is that fully half of the chain by area lies completely within Italy, including the shared summits of Mt. Blanc (with France) and The Matterhorn (with Switzerland).

But well, I guess there will be other opportunities, the new world is slowly calling. I know it will be hard to say goodbye to family again and go across the ocean. but you are an adventurer and love to see the world, it is stronger than you. One poet (Balašević) says that there is a date of birth and death on the tombstones and that small line between them. That little dash in between is life and you decided to make it fill with as much content as possible. We look forward to watching your footage and adventures. I recommend watching the series: "La casa de papel" or how the Americans translated "Money Heist". I watched it in the original Spanish with subtitles, because it is much better than the English dubbing that also exists. The lead actress reminds me a little of you even though she’s brunette.

      ​@@JustMe-uc8wj Actually I am Istrian and the Litoral and Coast of Slovenia is is still Italian to its core, historically it had always been as such and history cannot be changed. It become Slovenian only after Jugoslavia dissolved and Italy gently yet didn't reclaim it. Austro hungaric empire did actually start to promote the slavic element in those regions to displace the Italian one that posed a threat to their territorial integrity because of the reunification of Italy. It was Austro Hungarians that imposed slavic or germanic languages , tried to delete the Italian language, culture and deitalianize the region to preserve their foothold into the mediterranean. Also Slovenians never had any actual seat on those areas that were and are still Italian to its core . Slovenia belongs more to the interior areas and never to the coast and the whole area of Litoral was and had always been Italian.Sorry if this is not the history that teached you in school but its actual and factual truth. Oh and I am not proposing anything but I think that Italian exiled heirs should be allowed back to their homes and gain back their lost possessions which is nowday ostracized and opposed by local governments, Italian streets and naming be reinstated and so on. Then we are in EU so for me we can even remove borders and merge the countries.
