Slovenia is being more and more often listed as tourist destination on the lists of the largest world media. Recently the Huffington Post listed Slovenia among the 17 epic places you never thought to travel, but should!

“Croatia’s been a hot travel destination for a few years now, but don’t overlook its charming neighbor to the north. The snowy peaks of the Julian Alps are the dramatic backdrop for Slovenia’s storybook Lake Bled, while outdoor restaurants line the riverwalk in the friendly capital city Ljubljana and the sprawling Postojna Cave is a dramatic diversion.” the Huffington Post substantiated their decision.

The complete list of ’17 epic places you never thought to travel, but should’ includes South Korea, Mauritius, Kazakhstan, Cyprus, Latvia, Ecuador, Samoa, Uruguay, Namibia, Guatemala, Papua New Guinea, Newfoundland (Canada), Romania, Laos, Azerbaijan Slovenia and The Seychelles.

“Travel teaches us invaluable lessons we can’t learn in school. It expands our worldview. It pushes us to be better, stronger, more empathetic human beings. And these 17 places, in no particular order, are where that magic is going to happen this year. Some of them can be experienced in the lap of luxury, while others are for only the most adventurous souls. But all of them have the potential to be the best trip you’ve ever taken,” is written on the American Huffington Post web portal.
