Gorenjska and Primorska region in a day
Slovenia is a boutique country but still you can go for a long one day trip with tons of kilometres. Well, we combined it with our neighbour Italy, but only due to the navigation that calculated that direction.
We started in Ljubljana and the final destination (every time I write down this two-worded phrase I remember the movies with this title :D) was Portorož. “Why not complicate?” we said and headed towards Kranjska Gora. My friend had an errand in Kobarid, and I suggested we go via Vršič to Kobarid and stop by the river Soča on the way.
You remember my love for this emerald beauty, don’t you?
On the pass Vršič all the mountain beauty shows off …
In Kobarid we stopped for a cup of coffee and to set plan for the next destination: Goriška Brda. We needed to buy some wine there by some local winemaker. Have you ever been to Brda? It is so special … vineyards everywhere, wow.
We bought the wine by Uroš Jakončič from the winery Iaquin. He offered us a glass of Malvasia and all the answers to my wine questions, as well. His guesthouse is absolutetey magnificent! So elegent and modern. With a true hospitality is a nest of a really quality service. I will definitely come back there for a glass (or a bottle;)) of his wine.
Of course I couldn’t help myself … always looking for details in feelings (or feelings in details). I kindly ask Uroš if he minds me going for a stroll in the wineyards. He nodded to my request so I went to set free my adventurous nature.
I took some pictures and enjoyed in the quietness of the scene …
We then took off to the Portorož, with a small stop in Trieste for the sunset. Over 300 km and over 300 tiny moments that left smile on my face. And of course a new blog post.
