This summer in Infopeka there is not so much things to do. The activity is a bit off, and also Maribor, just after the Lent festival. So me and Marek we've been to the sea side to check if it's truely beautiful ;) and of course it is !!
Here is Piran. The first town we visited, and we loved it. And as I visited Venice in June, it made me think a lot about Italy. Those narrow streets, the laundry drying outside between two windows, or the old pebbledash on the walls. And the people are also mixing italian and slovene language, we could hear 'Ciao!' in every corner. We also could swim on one beach with big stones, and there were not a lot of people. Of course there were some typical beaches with sand, and too crowded. But they are not in that little piece of earth, with that lovely tower at the end, you have to go back a little bit more. Here, one of those streets that Marek enjoyed to photograph:
Then we moved to Izola, and we figured out that it was quite similar to Piran. Same architecture, same big tower in the center, and influence of Italy. We even passed by some kind of 'celebration of the tomatoe', in a pedestrian little narrow street. People were speaking loudly and on every table we saw cooked tomatoes in big saucepans, or some competition of the bigger tomatoe.
But this is the only thing that I personnaly liked in Izola, it's still less charming than Piran.
Then we went to Koper, and then we were even more disappointed, even if in some streets we found again those typical mediterranean kind of streets. This town is more like industrial, and it's also interesting to see anyway.
