Faaker See – spomini /memories

Lansko leto sva se za vikend oddih odpravila na bližnje avstrijsko jezerce – Faaker see. Ker nisem imela časa za objavo na blogu, je sedaj čas le za obujanje spominov preko fotografij. Ne bom pozabila čudovitih razgledov, poti bosonožcev, zagrajenih privat plaž (kar nam, Slovencem, ni najbolj poznano :)), lepih gozdov in pomankanja časa, da bi oblezla vse okoliške ferate in hribe. Foto utrinki spodaj. Super vikend družinski izlet! Tudi z otroki se da videti marsikaj, od gore Opic (Affenberg) do poti bosonožcev, ki jo vodi pravljica o zmaju ipd.

Last year we went on a weekend trip in Austria. Their Faaker See is near and very beautiful. We didn’t have time to wright a blog so this is just some memories in photos. I won’t forget breathtaking views, The barefoot road in forest, private beaches with no access for tourists, nice forests and the lack of time to visit and climbing all the mountains around the lake. You can see few photos bellow – it can be a great family getaway, there is plenty things to do with children – from Monkey mountain (affenberg) to barefoot road in the forest (the red line of the road is a fairy tale about a dragon) etc. Enjoy!😉

Trije mali vandrovčki

Koncno je spet cas za nekaj besed na blogu. Dolgo nisva pisala zaradi nekaj zasebnih zadev, med drugim je krivo tudi to, da se nama je na najinih vandranjih pridružila hčerkica. Nama se vedno nekam mudi in tako se je tudi njej mudilo na svet prej. In čeprav bi morala biti še v trebuščku je z vozičkom že malo vandrala naokoli.

Post je kratek, za ogrevanje in uvod v nova potepanja malo drugače – v troje. Tokrat smo obiskali samo bližnje lokacije – Kamnik, Arburetum Volčji potok in Gradiško jezero. Komaj čakamo nove dogodivščine in pripenjamo dva mala utrinka. Pozdravček!😊

Hiking – Raduha (2064 m – Slovenia)

Since I am so busy these days, Saturday was the best – hiking a mountain Raduha, spending all day in nature. The path is great, you can choose from “difficult path” or “very difficult path”. We went up trough very difficult and down trough difficult. The view was awesome!

On the way up…

The peak itself 🙂

Lanež

This is the mountain half an hour away from Raduha -it has a small edition of “Aljažev stolp” on it. You can find the real “Aljažev stolp” on Triglav – Slovenian highest mountain. 🙂

Grohat

On the way down,  we stopped at mountain meadow “Grohat” for some food and the great view of the mountain we just have been on. The staff is very friendly, kind and talkative. The food is amazing and not expensive at all! We drank Radler & apple juice and we ate 2 dishes “Ajdovi žganci” & “ješprenj” and we only paid 12 €! 🙂

This was amazing day, I recommend this hike to all mountain lovers out there. 😉

Wanderlust

It’s ordinary wednesday and my work day wasn’t so good. My last two weeekends was filled with tons of work so today i really feel … wanderlust! I found this amazing book in the library the other day and we (my boyfriend… and a cat ofcourse 😂) have this evening planned just for a daydream about travel. This book is full of great ideas! It’s like bucket list you don’t have to wright.😊 I recommend it to all travelers, adventurers and explorers! It’s called 1000 places to see before you die- Patricia Schults.

We are already planing this weekend trip and I just can’t wait!😊 Traveling is my motivation. 🙂

Down dog yoga app :)

Good morning from my yoga mat! 😉 I found this amazing yoga app that I have to share with you, guys. I had ALL free yoga apps on my phone, I think. Really, I tried out a tons of them. And now, I found THE ONE. 🙂 It’s called Down Dog.

• You can choose from different programs (beginner 1 or 2, intermediate 1 or 2 or advanced).
• You can choose your sequence type (restorative, full practice or quick flow).
• You can choose  length of a practice and have more options. 🙂

It’s amazing, it’s free and I recommend it to all yogis. Have a great day everyone. Namaste! 😉

Spring walk on a cloudy day (Slovenia – Podpeško lake/jezero)

Sunday is perfect day to get some fresh air outside. Today, we went to Podpesko lake under the mountain Krim. We were here for the first time, even it’s just half an hour drive from our home. 🙂 The view is nice.

There are also a lot of spring flowers. Probably it’s amazing here in the sunshine. Definetly we will go to mountain Krim one day. 🙂 It was one nice afternoon. 🙂

Dog paw cookies (engraved rolling pin)

Weekend is great time to do some home-baked cookies, right? We made some yesterday and tried out one of OUR new product – engraved rolling-pin. 

This one is engraved with animal paws so the cookies are pretty cool. 🙂

Be a traveler, not a tourist.

Why to travel? As I mentioned, traveling was one of the things that made me feel alive. It’s one of those wake up calls to stop existing and start living. I’m NOT talking about touristic traveling with great white dress, heels on your feet and selfie stick in your hand! It’s not about the likes on facebook, instagram etc. Will you care about it on your death-bed? No! But you will care about great adventures you had, great people you met and memories you made. This is not especially great memory: »Oh, remember that time, when i put my dress on, almost freeze to death, just to get my perfect profile picture by the frozen lake? Well, i get 300 likes than!« (we really saw that last week, on Lake Bled in Slovenia – two photos below).

It is a great memory how you laugh while travelling because you said something wrong in foreign language and the people understand it completely wrong …When you open your eyes and see the astonishing beauty of nature everywhere around you… When you help someone from the other side of the world … When you feel happiness in your heart because you know you conquer your greatest fears back in the mountain … When you feel proud how you overcame all the obstacles on the way… When you first see the ocean or the snow… When you might be old but in those moments you feel like a child again… When you meet someone so like you, even he has different ten of skin or different religion, you can be so alike! Those are memories to make, to cherish and be grateful for at the end of our lives. If you do stuff with passion, all the right people start to like you in real life.  Who cares about those who don’t know you and see your picture on facebook? That is NOT happiness.

Please, realize that the world is not just about you, it is much wider. And it is there to broaden your mind, to teach you millions of stuff,
So please… Get your snickers or hiking shoes, backpack, tent and something to take a few photos with. The perfect things to get in your back pack (besides water and spare clothes) are: curiosity, positive energy, adventurous spirit and freedom. And let the journey begin … And if you traveling like that it becomes much more affordable. You don’t need luxurious hotels or first class fly ticket. Sometimes, it is hard to go because of your job or the money, i understand that. But if you could only make it work – do it. It makes you feel alive. I love this: BECOME A TRAVELER, NOT A TURIST  🙂
