When Melissa and Owen faced the reality of Ljubljana's housing prices, they decided to look elsewhere. Today they're the proud owners of a property in Celje. At first glance, they say Celje is more friendly than Ljubljana. But Melissa, originally from China, says arriving in Slovenia and Europe for the first time was a culture shock. She met Owen, originally from the UK, in China. And after 10 years in Beijing they decided it was time for a change... Melissa's music choice: S+C+A+R+R - "The Rest Of My Days".

V Sloveniji je nezakonitega lova na ptice v primerjavi s sosednjimi državami razmeroma malo, je pa naša država zaradi svoje geografske lege tranzitno zelo pomembna država za tihotapljenje nezakonito ulovljenih ptic. Prisluhnite pogovoru z varstvenim ornitologom, Tilnom Basletom. (Foto: dopps.si)
Peter Kamien is a German who has been here long enough to know a thing or two about Slovenes. And although critical at times, he says he would never leave Slovenia. He met his Slovene wife while working in marketing, and then went on to be a writer, translator, and even an advisor in the presidential campaign! Peter also runs the biggest German travel blog about Slovenia, organizes the monthly Deutsches Sprachcafé Ljubljana events, and gives advice to Germans interested in moving to Slovenia. The interview features music by Johann Sebastian Bach (middle song - Badinerie), Johannes Brahms, The Avsenik Brothers Ensemble, and Oleksii Kalyna ("Winter Romance" from Pixabay) You can also join us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/Land-of-Dreams-209819855839296/

If you walk along the Ljubljanica River in Ljubljana you might run into Fatima Zahra. Fatima comes from a tourist/fishing town in Morocco, lives in Domžale, but manages a small shop in Ljubljana. She came here after meeting a Slovenian on holiday in Morocco. They fell in love and now have a family in Slovenia:) Fatima loves the open markets - especially the locally produced cheese and butter! She calls on Slovenians to show more respect towards the elderly, and hopes to one day run the Ljubljana Marathon ;) Fatima's music choice: Fehd Benchemsi - "Baba Mimoun".
