Last Chance to See My Video Tours of Ljubljana and More
New podcast episodes, an appearance in Slovenian promoting Bledology, and touring Slovenia with me in person!
Happy January to one and all!
Filming in Slovenia
The latest episode of Feel Slovenia the Podcast is up, and it's all about the movies. Which movies have been made in Slovenia and what is it like to film here?
Can you name this popular series Season 3 of which was filmed in Slovenia?
How about this recent Netflix movie?
That was Predjama Castle above (The Witcher) and downtown Piran (The Union). Learn more in this episode, which includes an exclusive interview with Halle Berry’s body double, as well as two of Slovenia’s leading film experts.
Last chance to see the first season of my video tours of Ljubljana
I’ve been filming a series of video tours of Ljubljana, and more will be made this year. I begin at Hotel Mrak (the hotel I recommend in the city) and set out to explore different themes in Ljubljana, from shopping to Plecnik to Christmas markets to Bohemian hangouts and much more. These were commissioned by Hotel Mrak and are intended exclusively for their guests. When you walk into their hotel rooms you can find me on your screen and choose from more than a dozen bespoke walking tour videos. But for now, the public can still watch them. It won’t last for long, so if you’re interested, have a look now.
Tour Slovenia with me on the Atlas Obscura Slovenia tour
For many years now I’ve been leading tours of Slovenia run by Atlas Obscura. They are very popular, deep dives into Slovenian food and mountain culture. I bring you to meet friends and experts who normal tourists would never access. The tour is called Forest to Table in Alpine Slovenia, and it focuses on foraging, cooking, and homemade schnapps traditions, with visits to Velika Planina, Jezersko, Bled, Ljubljana, Kamnik and more. There are four dates available this year. Take a look at the button below.
Appearance promoting Bledology and learning new Slovenian words
Finally for now, I recently appeared on a TV show in which the host takes celebrities on a hike and interviews them during it. We went to Mala Osojnica overlooking spectacular Lake Bled, then to lunch at Restaurant Central in Bled. It’s all in Slovene but has been a big hit, so you’re welcome to watch if you’re curious.
More to come in February, stay warm!
