Piran, Slovenia


On what coast of the Adriatic Slovenia has, lies this gem of a town, Piran.

Desperate for the feeling of summer and the kiss of sea air, we decided to check it out.

With it's narrow labyrinth-like streets and beautiful Piazza, Piran closely resembles Dubrovnik, Croatia, and several of the Italian villages that hug the coast of Italy. Autos are not allowed to drive in the town, so we had to park in a garage outside and carry our suitcases to our bed and breakfast, Miracolo di Mare, a lovely and newly renovated B&B with a charming garden to have breakfast and service with a sense of humor.

We really had nothing on the agenda except to relax, explore the maze of streets, dip our toes in the chilly water and enjoy Slovenian wine with fresh seafood, which we did.



An interesting fact for us Hoosiers, Piran is the sister-city with Indianapolis, Indiana.
