    I've been to Slovenia many times, but always to the alpine. This time we explored the lower lands, on the newly minted "Juliana Trail."
    The Juliana Trail is a brand-new walking trail that circumnavigates Slovenia's Julian Alps. It's 270km long, and is broken into 16 different stages that can be done individually.

    I’ve been feeling lost and disconnected the last two months or so. I used to be an avid photographer and adventurer but I haven’t been motivated. I haven’t wanted to do what I used to. Letting go is the key to rejuvenation. Happiness as a state of mind can shine in little moments. This video made me cry. You are doing what you love. That is your happiness. It helped me see what I’ve been missing. Thanks Alex. You are an inspiration.

    • @XDnezka
      @XDnezka 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Camping in the wild is technically not allowed and is prohibited around huts and on private property (unless you have the owner's permission) but if you are walking the slovenian mountain trail you will be able to find a place to camp from time to time. Having worked in a hut, we usually directed people who wanted to camp a few hundred meters away from the hut. However, I wouldn't count on that happening around most huts and you would be really lucky to have good enough weather for a prolonged period of time anyway. There's also bivaks but you can find those only on higher altitudes.
      Hope any of that helps :)
