Get to know me.......
Why do you think activity
holidays are worth trying?
Activity
holidays are unique and also the best way to spend your
holidays. There’s nothing better than spending time in
beautiful nature with nice and friendly people… and also
nice and sometimes “crazy” guides. :) You are always trying
out new stuff that you probably wouldn’t be doing it
otherwise and in the end you leave with a big smile on your
face and full of amazing memories that will stay with you
for a lifetime.
What are your favourite
adventure activities to enjoy in Tolmin? And Why?
It’s very hard to choose between land and water based
activities. So the best solution is to try both. Here in
Tolmin you must try hiking because in the surrounding area
there is so many beautiful mountains, creeks, waterfalls
that you just must see. And from water activities I would
choose canyoning. It’s adrenalin rush from start to finish
and you just feel so alive jumping and sliding down
waterfalls.
What are your typical job
roles? Any favourite parts?
Usually I work as a guide on most of the activities so I am
meeting new people every day and that is something I enjoy
very much. My favourite part of the job is seeing
expressions on the faces of clients when they achieve
something that they thought was impossible – sliding down
27m waterfall for example. It’s something that will stay
with them for a long time and I had something to do with
that and that is just nice to know.
Best memory during your time
working in adventure holidays in Slovenia?
This job is the best thing that happened to me! I can’t
choose just one thing because everything is just SIMPLY THE
BEST! =)
3 words (only) to describe
the Soca Valley & the Tolmin region?
Why
spending 3 words on something that can be described just
with PERFECT!!! =)
Slovenia is the only country
to have the ‘Love’ in its name, but why do you love
Slovenia?
I love Slovenia because it’s the only way you can feel about
it… If you don’t believe me come and see it for yourselves.
The greatest debate of them all. What
is the best Slovenian beer. Lasko or Union?
There is no
debate on this subject – LASKO JE ZAKON… Ups sorry you
didn’t understand that - LASKO RULES!
What do you
like about Slovenian food? Any favourite dishes?
Slovenian
food is great. Most of the food is organic and it’s not
spicy. The food is a little bit different from place to
place and there are some typical dishes in each region of
Slovenia. So if you are a “food lover” just travel around
our unique country and try them out. But my favourite dish
is still the soup that my grandmother makes. :)
Any other remarks?
If you want to spend one crazy and awesome week with great
and funny people come to Slovenia or even better come to
Tolmin.
