I am Slovenian, British, and European at heart - having spent half of my life in Slovenia, another half in Scotland, and having lived for several years in Switzerland. I feel privileged to have the best of both worlds by being a citizen of both of these beautiful small countries. I love spending time with my family and friends, travelling, reading, cooking, and pottering around in the garden!
