Message Boards    

Feel welcome to post us your comments on our message boards regarding Groups & Events, announcements, rants'n' raves, items for sale... or whatever information you might like to share with the growing Ljubljana expat community.

Everybody has their own story to tell, so we would also encourage you to also think about and submit your answers, in the form of an essay, to such questions as: "Why am I here in Slovenia?", "What have I learned or enjoyed the most from my time here?", "What kind of friendships have I made with Slovenes or other expats?". Perhaps by telling others about your experience you may even make some new friends in the process!

Past contributions include:

 My Car is my Castle

 You know you're in Ljubljana too long when...

 You know you're in Slovenia too long when...

 Five Years on and Still Wondering...
