(Spoiled brat) Ljubljana, Capital City of Slovenia

By Roberto Garabelli

  Ljubljana is also considered as the largest city in Slovenia that has at least 270,000 inhabitants. Because of its location, Ljubljana’s culture has many influences including the Slavics, the Germans, as well as the Latins.

There are different arguments about the origin of Ljubljana’s name. Some historians actually believe that the name of Slovenia’s capital came from the name of the old Slavic city which was called the Laburus. There are also some historians that Ljubljana came from the Latin word Aluviana. But even though they have different beliefs regarding the name origin of Ljubljana, they all have one story to tell about the legend of the city. The founder of Ljubljana was said to be a Greek prince named Jason along with his Argonauts. According to the legend, Prince Jason fought a dragon when he once travelled going to Ljubljana. The dragon now serves as the city’s symbol and can be found at the Zmajski Most or the Dragon Bridge.

The size of Ljubljana is enough to have everything that a country’s capital must have. However, Ljubljana is still small enough to protect its inhabitants’ individuality. Unlike the other cities in the world, Ljubljana has the soul and gives great importance to its heritage. Until now, Baroque Old Town located at the Castle Hill’s foot is well preserved and considered as one of the tourist attractions in Ljubljana today. There are also some preserved masterpieces of the popular architect named Joze Plecnik and Art Nouveau mansions as well.

Slovenia is rich with several cultural heritages and most of it can be found in Ljubljana. One of the most famous cultural sights is the Cathedral of St. Nicholas. It is a religious site that was built for the patron of saint of boatmen as well as fishermen. It used to be a chapel but during the 18th century, they replaced it with a Baroque Church.

If you want to know more about Slovenia, particularly about Ljubljana, then you must head in one place - the National Museum. At the entrance of the museum, you will immediately see the four allegorical figures such as the Work, Art, Natural Science, and History. There are different artefacts that can be found here in the National Museum. However, some of the most important displays include Vace’s bronze situla, the mammoth skeleton, the mineralogical collection from Zois, and the Ljubljana Moor’s wooden boat.

You will also be fascinated with all the natural wonders of Ljubljana. At the Ljubljana Moor, the biggest swamp in Slovenia, you may see and encounter various bird species, different kinds of plants, and other animals living near the swamp as well. Houses called Kolisca that were built thousands of years ago by the first inhabitants of the Ljubljana Moor can still be seen in the area.

  Do you know exactly what to do to make the man you’re interested in quickly feel that spark of interest and attraction for you?

In other words, do you know how to make that guy fall in love with you?

Here is the SECRET: Just Be Different Than Other Women! That’s IT!

A man loves being around a woman who has more to talk about than the boring everyday stuff. Talking to him about things like problems at work, how tired you feel, what you had for lunch, will lead to the plain old BOREDOM.

When you meet a man, asking him what he does for a living or talking about your job is also boring. It’s what every other woman does!

A man will LOVE being around you if you communicate a love and enjoyment of life, and you bring a unique and UPBEAT ENERGY that shows you have fun and interesting things OF YOUR OWN going on. This will set you APART from every other woman a man knows. And it will make him want to spend more and more time with you.

The women a man is looking to AVOID are the women looking for a man to fill their life and make it more interesting and fun. The woman a man can’t help but FALL FOR is the woman who is already doing great things in her own life which naturally attract a man into wanting to be more a part of it.

Well, here are other tips that can help you in order to make a guy fall in love with you:

2. Get his attention. He can’t fancy you if he doesn’t know you exist.

3. Take an interest in what he likes, where he’s coming from, where he wants to go, (but don’t try to get too personal) and show him who you are, too.

4. Don’t try to talk to him all the time or else he will get very annoyed and may not like you.

5. Have a sense of humor. If you’re serious about everything, you’re boring!

6. He may develop feelings for you if you flirt a little bit.

7. Try being alone if you want him to ask you out.

8. Don’t make yourself too available

Remember, whatever you are, that’s OK. Don’t cover yourself up! Femininity - no matter what shape or form it comes in - is sexy. And you don’t have to worry about conforming to societal standards of femininity, either (you’re a woman!).

Therefore, anything you do is “feminine”! Learn to embrace your natural femininity, and use it make him start falling in love with you!
