And now a collection of images taken in my birthplace on many occasions, in summer and winter and in between. See if you wish to see more for yourselves.
I remember posting this photo before she left for Peru as well. This time it’s Asia. Sisters climbed Ljubljana castle that day.
A view towards our part of the city, Bežigrad, in the north of Ljubljana.
This residential building is called ‘Oberstdorf’, I’m told. It certainly seems ready for ski-jumping.
Trubarjeva street in the centre, sister’s terrain.
Križanke, an open-air concert venue where lots of fun has been had.
Dragon Bridge is guarded by this beast who is believed wiggles its tail when a virgin passes.
Tivoli park is the lungs of Ljubljana.
Mostec, near Ljubljana ZOO, is where I walked my first dog, in winter too.
Ljubljana Castle from below.
Behind Television Slovenia, national broadcaster…
…where father worked most of his life. Here on the biggest of the Triple Bridges.
A bar by the Ljubljanica river.
Amore at the sea-food restaurant by the river with the view of the pink church and the greatest Slovenian poet.
The Central Post Office. Traffic was removed from this street, only busses and taxis remain.
The one on the right used to be the “Iskra” building…
…where mom worked most of her life. Here in her brother’s garden.
The fir tree in said garden which is the same age as me.
The view from my ex living room.
The most frequently observed view of our lives, towards the north.
Shame on me I never visited Slovenia!!
It’s great you can smell the snow, too…lots of people can’t tell the difference, but I feel it: it’s a subtle and delicate smell, but snow DOES smell ❄
You can still do it, it’s not so far. 🙂 The thing is that I smelled something this weekend that reminded of how snow smelled back in Slovenia – it’s just that I was in Roma! It indeed dropped to 4 degrees C in the night, but snow was still far away.
One of my favorite capital cities in Europe. Wish I spent more time there.

It’s true, Susanne. Not that I didn’t know it then, but distance certainly colours it in. Thank you!
