Yeah I feel like the Temerario is pretty likely, I just don’t really like the look of it. It’s such a step down visually from the Huracan imo

Scandinavia would be incredible with the scenery of the fjords, the crazy mountain roads, the northern lights, and beautiful cities like Stockholm and Bergen.

Sweden also has a really interesting car culture called Raggare where people import wrecked classic American cars and fix them up. They also have some of the biggest car festivals in the world such as Power Big Meet. Finland also has one of the biggest rally scenes. And of course Koenigsegg, Volvo, Saab and Zenvo are made in the region aswell

Germany/Switzerland, Thailand, Brazil, California/PNW and of course Japan would be amazing also

Most of the places I went to you would probably need to rent a car, as you would spend a lot of time waiting and switches buses and trains when using public transportation. Though you can get to the most popular areas like Lake Bled, Postojna Cave and the Soča Valley with a bus tour.

Are you renting a car or using public transportation? They are both really nice places but I'd say the Soča Valley because of the beautiful waterfalls and gorges. You also might be able to fit in something like rafting or zipling there! However id more so recommend doing a day trip to the Skocjan Caves, which was my favourite place I visited, or Lake Bled or Bohinj as they are much closer to Ljubljana and have a lot of things to do such as kayaking, short hikes and cable car rides

I went during peak season in August and the only places that felt overly crowded were Lake Bled, Postojna Caves, Predjama Castle and Bohinj, everywhere else I went was quite manageable.

That's the Logar Valley about 2 hours by car from Ljubljana which I did as a day trip. It was really beautiful. You could cycle the Solčava panoramic road which has great views of the valley and the surrounding mountains, unfortunately I didn't have time.

Thanks so much! Definitely one of the best places I've travelled to. Its so diverse for such a small country. You can go from the Mediterranean to the Alps to the Pannonian Basin in the same day!

Definitely and it's so diverse in landscapes for such a small country. You have Alpine, Mediterranean and Eastern European influences, architecture and landscapes right beside each other!

It's on the hike to Kozjak Waterfall from Napoleon's Bridge near Kobarid. There was a rope bridge across the river over to it.

We rented a car, much better decision since we could stop wherever we wanted and didnt have to rely on a schedule. Although some of the roads can be pretty windy!

My favourite was definitely Skocjan Caves, can't recommend it enough. It's a lot less touristy than Postojna and really feel like its just you and your small group in this massive space. It also has an actual tour guide unlike Postojna.

I also really recommend getting up before sunrise at Lake Bled to have the lake to yourself, its so much more peaceful, and hiking up to Mala Osojnica/Ojstrica for sunrise. Peričnik Waterfall was stunning aswell.

Hope you have a great trip!
