Hey guys,
We've been in Slovenia since Monday and Levi and I are having a blast. We had to get up way early on Monday to get here, and after a plane change in Praha (Prague), Czech Republic, we found ourselves in Ljubljana, Slovenia, the capital. So far we have just been exploring the city, hanging out with two Slovenian students who are shooting some video for their own separate projects; we're here to help them out, teaching Final Cut and shooting video with them.
The food, although good, is not exactly something I would want to eat on a daily basis. Sausages, various types of meat, and sauerkraut made up our lunch yesterday. We did have great beer that came in a bottle with a special cap that you could close and save it for later.
Our hostel is pretty sweet. It used to be an army prison and was renovated several years ago into a pretty trendy and modern hold-up for visitors to the city. The doors are actual prison cell gates, and bars cover the windows. There's a full bar, pretty shitty food, and a lot of cool people. The surrounding area is really trendy with a concert house next door and a lot of graffiti. We randomly found this graffiti exhibition yesterday where kids, teenagers, and adults we're making their mark in Ljubljana in our new "backyard".
There aren't too many crazy stories to tell...yet. We plan on heading to a Slovenian club tonight with one of the Slovenian students, Ana...that should be fun. Tomorrow we leave for Istanbul, Turkey early in the morning. So far, between Paris and Slovenia, Eurotrip 2010 = success.
Hope things are good back in the states. I've got another two months in Europe. I'm having a ton of fun but am missing a real breakfast, enjoy that for me!
Matt
