The billard club next to the Sport Center and the Traditional Summer Concert outside Maribor. The Postojna Cave should not be missed neither.
I felt in love with the Desperado drink... I try to find it in my country and abroad during my travels but I have not succeeded yet...

Personal comments
I enjoyed very much the opportunity to study and to converse in English. My English was at a high level before my stay in Sloveneia and it has rather improved during my studies there mainly thanks to the contacts with the international students.
I have learnt some bais Slovene expressions thanks to the common basics of the local language and my mother tongue. The Slovene courses I had helped me a lot in my everyday communication in public places and institutions.
