Lonely Planet writer mark baker explains why he loves Slovenia. "Slovenia was the first guidebook I ever wrote more than a decade ago, and even back then I knew I was smitten. The location is hidden away just enough to be off the well-worn path yet still at the heart of Europe. Ljubljana strikes that ideal balance between urban energy and livability, and who can forget the electric blue-green waters of the Soča River? Slovenes themselves seem to take all of the natural beauty, the unhurried pace, the food and the wine in stride. We visitors know how special and rare this unspoilt place really is."
