A birthday trip during last week on a whim to my s A birthday trip during last week on a whim to my second home in @visit_skofjaloka, Slovenia to hang out with some of my great Slovene buddies and to chill out for a few days after a busy year so far. It was great to see everyone and as always I had such a warm welcome. 

Bit of drama on the way there and on the way back which you can read about in my latest blog - 🔗 in bio.
