In Koper I only stayed in the old town. It is quite small and still have one of its many mediaeval gates. A very peculiar thing is that there is many, but seriously many little curches so little that probably only three people can be inside at the same time. They dont even have sittings. It is just an altar really. I never seen something like that before. I wonder if the people of old had this little churches as a place of daily worship and the big church in the centre of the town for sundays only.

It is quite odd that while the coffee, the wine and the ice creams cost really just pennys, the internet is so expensive. It's about 3 to 4 pound an hour. Also very strange is that to do the laundry in a hostel can cost you about 6 pounds for a wash.

In Koper I had Herbal tea for breakfast, Lemonbalm to be presise (Cedron o Toronjil) and abundant bread and honey. It's been at least 4 years since I last had Lemon balm herbal tea.

EVEYBODY in Slovenia smoke, and smoke is allowed everywhere. Being the coffee so cheap this place would have been my paradise some 5 weeks ago.
Im still not totally sure if is really better going from a coffee and cigarrettes diet to a coffee and Slovenian patisserie plus ice creams, pizzas and seafood diet.
