Back to the Europe vlogs :)! Hope you guys had an awesome weekend! What did you get up to? If you are new around here make sure you hit subscribe :) kzbin.info

[@korencek]

I think it's very illegal to use a drone in urban areas without permission in Slovenia...

[@korencek]

+ where I work we produced machines that made that youghurt 8:49 :) those farmer's cheeses are also the best.

[@nivesdirnbek1218]

Flying The Nest I'm from Slovenia! Glad you liked it❤

[@thesimpleme6155]

I live in ljubljana 😁

[@andrazandjelic3511]

Flying The Nest nice vlog, really captured the beauty of our capital. However, I think you should visit Ljubljana in the summer (because it's a better experience, since you're not constantly freezing)

[@lealoti]

I love seeing Ljubljana from the eyes of a tourist, we, the locals, often forget how beautiful it really is :)

[@matejkavc]

Lea Loti Dresden in beautiful, not Ljubljana

[@lealoti]

Every city has it's own charm, including Ljubljana :)

[@lealoti]

There are plenty local businesses that offer coffee, sweets and overall great service. And unfortunately might be replaced by big corporations like the ones you mentioned in the future... I personally really don't think we need even more overpriced coffee and chain businesses that take away from the energy and soul of such a cute city as Ljubljana.

[@doro8364]

Ojla

[@delasao]

Hi Loti! I'm a Spanish student who's probably gonna go to Lubjabljana on an Erasmus program next year. I would like to have someone to talk about the city! Let me know if u feel like it :D

[@SlavicAffairs]

Very nice review of my city, thank you! It's a lot nicer in spring and summer though with all the cafes and you can also visit Park Tivoli and just chill outside :) Anyways, great video!

[@svitp.n.8374]

Slavic Affairs Vseeno bi blo mal bulši če bi pravilno izgovorili ime mesta

[@maikvas9644]

Slavic Affairs super slovenc moj

[@WirelessBros42]

Hah ljubljana je res prevec podcenjena

[@jazzyartistt]

Slavic Affairs U are from Slovenia too!I am from Maribor tho!

[@lelywijaya8701]

My next destination. 😍

[@shinnyspace]

underrated is because we Slovenes are specialists in underrating ourselves for no reason

[@ivanlovric5805]

shinnyspace I think Pervan can take the credit for it 😂

[@agenuineeuropean921]

Niti ne

[@shinnyspace]

Ivan Lovric who is Pervan?

[@malibozicek3251]

hahah that's so true tho

[@evab.6240]

True haha

[@KaraandNate]

Okay I've only watched like 2 minutes of this vlog so far, but I for reals am so in love with Ljub and so happy you feel the same! Charming and lovely and delicious and authentic and SO UNDERRATED.

[@KaraandNate]

We got yogurt from the exact same vending machine 💞

[@flyingthenest]

umm you guys gave us the inspiration for checking out Ljubljana! The market place was so cool! p.s. that Yogurt was AMAZING! Also p.s.s.s. kinda jelly you guys just did India!

[@KaraandNate]

Seriously?! Awesome! Omg guys you must go to India. We are def going back💜

[@zalatrebeznik7858]

Ljub lol wtf

[@climed1815]

Kara and Nate haha It's so weird hearing this nice things about my city even thoe is nothing for me because I'm there every day

[@salate0000]

Im Croat but Slovenija is in my heart. Started visiting when I was 3 years old. Beautiful contry wherever you go. River Soca is stunning, Maribor, Bled, Slovenj Gradec, Portoroz, Kranjska Gora etc.

[@HEZAMOTOSPORTswag]

finally some popular ytber talks about our country =3

[@flyingthenest]

Haha I wouldn't say we are popular but we did enjoy your country very much 😁

[@maikvas9644]

NoCopy I know right?

[@aa-cq7jn]

NoCopy ja končn

[@ravinabae5374]

Hvala

[@daisyy3299]

I will come Slovenia and I will live there but I haven't any information. I don't know what to do...

[@growingwildheather]

Oh wow, Ljubljana look super beautiful in the winter. We were there in late summer. It is such an underrated place, even we only have ourselves a day on our way to Italy. But a good reason to go back! Thanks for sharing!! Safe travels.

[@shinnyspace]

and milk at mlekomat, you don't need to warm it up :) it's drinkable instantly , thank to high standards in slovene milk industry :)

[@nikkorosec9957]

my point exactly :))

[@andreja6188]

Yeah, this is my Ljubljana😍

[@bazoo513]

What is that with raw milk paranoia!? Milk from "milk-o-mats" (we have those on farmer's markets in Zagreb, too, as do Austrians, Germans, and others) is supposed to be drunk straight. Of course, if you prefer it, you can warm it up or even boil it, but that is by no means necessary and, in my opinion, ruins the taste. Raw, unpasteurized and unhomogenized milk is perfectly healthy as long as the cows are healthy, it is kept cold and is consumed within two or three days (after which it turns into sour milk - also yummy). Every single batch (which is allowed to stay in the vending machine for only 24 hours, never warmer than 4°C from the moment it was initially cooled while still in the milking machine) is tested by quick enzymatic essay against common pathogens, and at least once a week samples go to a laboratory for a thorough analysis. Cows also undergo regular, frequent veterinary inspection. (My company makes software that runs many of those laboratories and veterinary practices, so I have seen the procedures and statistics - have no worries!) BTW, those glass bottles are there for the convenience of infrequent buyers like yourself; regular customers like myself bring our own bottles (usually those same ones we initially bought from the milk-o-mat, but one can frequently see, say, a water bottle reused.)

[@djakflslwk3963]

Greetings for the most beautiful country with wonderful people ... greetings from Serbia 🇸🇮🇷🇸!

[@janfurman8992]

[@tald5571]

You should come here during the summer. It’s so warm and all the trees are blooming.

[@flyingthenest]

Really want to check out Slovenia in the summer!!

[@herrsteppsch29]

How is it in october? :)

[@dzonikg]

i loved Ljubljana when we were some country (i am from Serbia) and i love it now ..i will be there in 3 days again.. but most i like there is people

[@tejanovak7675]

dzonikg da 💪

[@user-vl7uf5lu6x]

Se ne strinjam

[@koenstravels282]

I loved the city when I was there ♥️

[@flyingthenest]

Ohh did you visit in the summer or the winter??

[@koenstravels282]

why?

[@tamara_v]

asdasd asdad why?? Here is nothing wrong?

[@user-nh5ne6xk7c]

tamika392 because he was from Ljubljana he doesnt think to beauty of city if you understand me , he thinks that the city is beautiful but that you wouldnt be happy to live there. Sry for bad Eng

[@tamara_v]

fliqsid3 djorke but i live here and is BEAUTIFUL 😍👌🏼

[@anurkrishnankutty4658]

What a beautiful country..... I am from india. My dream is go there and live there as slovanian people.. i don't know can i? I hope.... once i will.. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@michelleruiz8320]

I LOVE LJUBLJANA!!! I wanted to go as a kid, just bc of the name of it... last year I made it and was better than i expected!

[@MyTravelJournalvlog]

I make videos of my traveling around the world, I am in Slovenia now , what would you suggest me, I am about to start a video from Koper. Then Ljubliana and Bled I believe, Piran also. Do you have any suggestions?

[@suziclark4244]

I realize this video is pretty old now, but I have to agree that Ljubljana is SO underrated! And Slovenia in general. The people are friendly and getting around with English is pretty easy, the landscape is GORGEOUS (on par with Austria and Switzerland, IMO), and the prices are way cheaper than more visited countries! Definitely worth a visit.

[@YummyInspirations]

Beautiful video! I just moved from Australia to Ireland and I'm planning where I want to go over the next few months/years and you keep adding to my list! Can't wait to visit Slovenia, looks AMAZING! :)

[@flyingthenest]

Yussss try see as much of Europe as you can :) Sometimes we wish we lived in Europe - so lucky to live close to SO many incredible countries!

[@ajdina56]

Well when you do come here I hope you have a fabulous time ;D

[@boyan64]

Nice you love my Ljubljana. Unfortunately you don't have good weather. if you have it you will have much, much better view from castle to mountains.

[@flyingthenest]

Haha yeah it was that crazy winter snap that came through Europe!

[@mouseplays1546]

I know right we have such bad weather, expecially in April and May!

[@matt7232]

I am from Ljubljana and doing airbnb here and it's true...ALL of my guests who have visited Amsterdam said that Ljubljana is similar. That's why I called Ljubljana - Amsterdam from the South:)). Also Slovenians have similar mentality as Dutch do, that's why all of my guests from there feel here at home:)) BTW, great editing. Too bad you didn't come in summer for the better shots...

[@aandaprobrostudio2387]

I agree! One of the most beautiful places ever!

[@ervingricnik2470]

Of course, It's more beautiful than Vienna ;) Ljubljana castle is from Roman times, 11th century. Ljubljana was called Emona at that time. If you haven't visited caves in Slovenia then you'll have to come again. Cheers to Australia. :)

[@snowwhitebeautyful]

Every single city from the ex Yugoslavia is underrated while in fact they're as good as other European cities. In the same way Prague and Paris are so bloody overrated it's disgusting.

[@dominikakonecna2518]

Well ex Yugoslavia countries might be underrated but cannot agree with Paris or Prague being overrated. They are class

[@dominikakonecna2518]

John James Rambo ay, okay that I agree with. I always loved Vienna the most tho, don't know why

[@laurentfaurite8660]

Podgorica sucks.

[@FetenWuWa]

Now I feel even more proud of being part Slovenian.

[@sosleeplessss]

If you ever visit Slovenia again I recommend you visit the Postojna cave and the Postojna castle. River Soča (Isonzo) where you can go rafting and river Mura (Mur) where you can see the watermills (it’s also the river that gave name to Prekmurje -a region in Slovenia meaning ‘over Mur’). You won’t regret visiting Lipica (where you can see the Lipizzan horses), which’s name is derived from the word lipa (linden tree). Linden trees are quite common in the area and are a national symbol of Slovenia. And if you really enjoy spending time in nature then maybe check out the Triglav National Park. Triglav is Slovenia’s highest mountain (2864m).

[@flyingthenest]

oooh this is such a good list of stuff, we will have to try and make a return trip to Slovenia someday!

[@xxxxxnzjsgshbwh]

I'm Croatian (which is a contury RIGHT next to Slovenia) and I had NO idea Ljubljana was this gorgeous until my parents visited it and told me how amazed they were by it. now watching this video I definetally agree, I'll take the first oppurtunity to go there! Also, why isn't anyone on Balkan talking about how amazing it is?? why do we underrate Slovenia so much

[@Reformatt]

do you guys know where you are going to be in fall 2018? back in Australia?

[@flyingthenest]

We will be overseas for most of Autumn here in Australia!

[@Reformatt]

Maybe winter 2019? ;) We could do a short Australian collab

[@tennisinsane7553]

Slovenia looks beautiful especially this Amazing city I really wanna visit

[@sallyso8308]

Alot of european cities have fresh farmers markets where they are not really in sight for tourists and mainly locals know about. But that one was impressive too. I love this video and Ljubljana looks beautiful city ~ cannot wait to see it one day

[@laurapotocnik8164]

Tnx you guys for making a video about our little country😍😍😍😆It is nice to see someone still remembers us😂👍

[@travelonfire9599]

Wow, I wouldn't have thought that Slovenia can be this beautiful in winter!

[@thehautefinish1709]

Slovenia is soooo incredible! I went this summer and made a little vlog too and it was honestly so beautiful!

[@brandonmcgillis]

I loved this place when I went. It’s so calming ,

[@tiffanymitchell2071]

Once again ❤️ ❤️ these videos!! These Vlogs could be used for advertisements 😍 Jess's outfits blend perfect with the beauty of Slovenia😍 love you guys! Keep up the great work👍🏽

[@biomanization]

Your beautiful camera work and music make this town look so charming and delightful! Thanks, guys!

[@Marseekuy]

There are a lot of beautiful spots in our beautiful country, Ljubljana is just one of them :) I'm glad you were even here. Keep up the good work!

[@flyingthenest]

Aww thanks so much for your support really appreciate it

[@alinazlatecan9114]

[@manca5runa773]

Ke ste Slovenciiii 🇸🇮 😂

[@annettestephen8521]

Your videos are so amazing. It doesn't get enough recognition it deserves!

[@flyingthenest]

Thank you so much Annette 😊

[@marianastaric6420]

I am Slovenian, and I will be visiting the country for the first time this summer! Can’t wait!❤️

[@beats_si]

Slovenia is so lovely, the city of Ljubljana really does remind me of Amsterdam!

[@culturalconfederacy782]

People who know great music or who are musicians know Ljubljana. What a beautiful city.

[@toniprosenik4700]

Slovenes are used to food that is driven right from our farms

[@alicayyc1878]

I'm just so happy to see someone saying Ljubljana is beautiful city

[@flyingthenest]

It sure is!!

[@nurealam1206]

Thanks a lot guys. You're doing many great things.

[@tanjalovse2427]

nice look to ljubljana, but you missed some architectural and cultural monuments. in the beginning you passed national and university library and also križanke, but you didn't show it. anyhow, thank you for showing my native place in good look. it's a pitty, becouse the weather was not so nice. if you come in spring, summer or autumn, ljubljana is much beautifull and always much full with people than in your video :-). oh, I didn' say - I live in ljubljana for all my life :-)

[@poetryplace3929]

Coming to the marketplace on Fridays is great when the Open Kitchen (Odprta Kuhna) is up. This year it's from March 20 - October every sunny Friday.

[@btnjgar3554]

Wooooooww so nice beautiful thanks sharing video's and God bless from Indonesian 🇮🇩 🙏🙏🙏

[@Psychphuq]

Loving the Aerial shots, looks amazing...! A market without crowds would be the best... Take your time to soak it all in & get the perfect fruit / veg / dairy... :) Wonder if I'll get anything like the "Beast From The East" for my winter 18/19 trip...

[@flyingthenest]

haha I think you should be fine! They called it the beast from the east because no one was expecting it to happen!

[@Butmunch666]

No...you drink the raw milk...that was the point of the machines, thats why they're cooled. And machines and not just some dude selling you milk. :D

[@lyrean08]

nice vlog, will be in ljublana on the 27th!! guys could u pls tell me the background song?i was listening to it and i fell in love:)thanks soo much

[@kayarakhou2597]

[@hannak.5401]

You two should've gone to cat cafe in Ljubljana 😊 it's awesome and has cats that you can pet

[@nikadragojevic9073]
