It was Monday, September 4. Our wedding anniversary. Matija had a day off and for me that was the best wedding anniversary gift possible. The girls were up before 6 which is very early even by their standards (they usually sleep at least till 6.30 haha). We decided to make the best out of it […]

Our Big Asian Family Adventure
I’ve been to Asia 3 times. First time – with my two best friends in 2010. Second time – alone in 2011 & 2012. Third time in 2013 with Matija, who’s now my husband. At the end of this year we plan to take our two daughters with us, on a family adventure of a […]
Renata’s love for travelling
I was born in 1988 to a very ordinary Slovenian family of four. We did all the common things that pretty much every family at that time was doing (and still is as a matter of fact): when it was summer we went to the seaside (usually Croatia), in winters we did some skiing and […]
Beautiful Slovenia: Paradise in Posocje
The simplicity of life Early birds. Morning cuddles. Excited smiles. Adventure begins. Singing in the car. The glowing mountains. Endless green. The smell of forest. Water, the source of life. A tree, so full of life. Lovely hikes. Majestic nature. Fairytale landscape. Warm sleeping bag on a very cold night. A breath of fresh morning […]
Croatia: Groznjan
A winding road takes you to a charming little town on top of a hill in the middle of Croatian Istria. It’s Easter and the town is still sleepy so we wander the narrow, stone paved streets alone. It’s so lovely, a place where you lose yourself in a time that has already passed and […]
Our little Italy: Veneto
It’s Tuesday evening. We pack the car as if we’re leaving for a whole month but i think i only packed what we’ll need. Travelling with kids is different indeed, there’s so much details to be taken care of. Anyway, I’ve been so excited for a whole day that we’ll finally hit the road and head on an […]

Nepal: Bodhnath and Pokhara
Bodhnath. Another little gem of Nepal. In fact it is more of a village (the Nepalese criteria of size) at Kathmandu, and it is also interesting because the main sight, the largest stupa in Asia, is located just off one of the busiest and noisiest roads. Immediately when you find yourself at the stupa it is […]
Nepal: Kathmandu and Patan
Kathmandu. A brand new day has only just started when we were already out on the street. The city was just waking up and for me that is always a sight to see. Shops and everything else was just opening although the clock was s already around 9am. Garden of Dreams seemed like a reasonable choice for […]
Hungary: Budapest and Mumford and Sons
I’ve never been to Hungary eventhough it’s just about 2-3 hours ride away. But we got the perfect opportunity to finally visit Hungary when i found out that the Mumford and Sons which we both love are having a concert in Budapest. There were just 2500 tickets so we had to decide immediately. We got […]
