Terrific video! amongst other, you've climbed Nad Šitom Glava, just above Vršič pass. As a confident connoseur of my fatherland, I would have never imagined, that a foreigner could have showed me a new place in my own country. Yet, you've made it. Thanks for a hint on Željnske jame, for which I have never heard before. Marvelous!

welcome back anytime. You seem to be one of the few, who can enjoy the smorgasbord of natural delights here. As for the Alpine fall foliage, here are some additional hints: Slemenova Špica (on your video, but from afar), a circular hike from Koča na planini Jezero - Koča pri triglavskih jezerih. And then, there is the whole Eastern part of Slovenia to explore, less dramatic on grand scale, but even more mignon in its off the beaten path's solitude.
@BrianLackey2 жыл бұрын
@@kozorok yes, lots more to explore. Thanks for the suggestions! I'll probably be back again at some point here in the next few years to do some more mountain hiking. Hoping to stay in some of the many alpine huts and shelters.

Nature there is breathtaking, that's why the photos are so beautiful... My favorite months to go there are May and October. But I have just returned from another visit to Slovenia and it was beautiful... again. Beautiful country, beautiful nature, beautiful people. Thanks for your amazing photos.

Wow! Slovenia is beautiful and you gave us such an immersive experience. I was surprised how much of it reminds me of Scotland. But that blue canyon water..wow 😍 Your compositions are gorgeous. I’m headed to your website to see the project.
@MrConhobar2 жыл бұрын
That blue water happens because most of the country is limestone, the water here is in most cases very clean in such mountain streams, to the point where you can drink it right from the stream (done it myself a couple of times), which then gives the water that blue hue. As for reminding you of Scotland, not that it has any correlation to the look of the land but originally it was inhabited by Celtic peoples, who then mixed with the later arriving Romans, Slavs and then a while later Bavarians and Austrians, giving us, the modern day Slovene people. The old name for Slovenia was Carntum or Carniola from the Celtic tribe of the Carni that lived here, and for a while the Kingdom/province of Noric. So an Alba Gu Bràth to you from Slovenia, you're always welcome :D

From your music choices, to how much variety you showed, drone, still image, grand views, intimate spaces. Just incredible. Definitely will be watching many times again. Slovenia looks like an incredible place. Do you mind me asking is it difficult to travel there if you only speak English? And food-wise is it vegetarian friendly? Climate wise, is it more mild? Or are there extreme temperatures at any point?
@BrianLackey2 жыл бұрын
thanks so much Sarah! Really appreciate that :) It's surprisingly easy to visit, actually. Probably on-part with... Austria? I never had any trouble only speaking English and found that more people understood me than in places like Spain or France. I would guess there will be plenty of vegetarian options, but that would be worth researching a bit more beforehand since it's not something I was paying attention to. And on the climate front, I'd say it's pretty typically European? When I was there in mid- to late-October, it was typically lows in the 30s/40s(F) and highs in the 50s to 60s (if I'm remembering correctly). Didn't feel too terribly different from back here in Washington, but the summers do get warm and the it snows quite a bit in the mountains in the winter. I've been in all four seasons now and late October was by far my favorite time to go. May was also beautiful, but obviously you trade the fall colors for intense spring greens then.

With English you will be fully OK. I would say that proficiency is at the level of Austria and Germany, and much better than in South Europe (Spain or Italy…). Most of the people speak at least one foreign language, it is common as well to speak 2-3 foreign languages (beside English also German, Italian, some other Slavic languages).
