Meet your hosts, Al & Leanne Elliott, a husband and wife team who’ve been travelling full time since 2017. After visiting 43 different countries and 159 towns and cities, it’s safe to say they’ve heard plenty of juicy stories of people who live life on their terms (we call it ’Living sideways’). QUICK NOTE: This podcast was formerly called ’Thravellers’ but the pandemic taught us that travel is not the only way to live life differently - hence the name change! So join us for weekly episodes where we interview interesting people who are living and working abroad. Join us, and live life a little bit sideways.

Welcome to Slovenia!
Our first stop on our tour of the Balkans takes us to Slovenia, a small central European country bordered by Italy, Austria, Hungary, Croatia and the Adriatic Sea.
This place may be the third smallest country in the EU at only 7,800 square miles and a population of a little over 2 million, but it's got enough diversity to keep you coming back for more!
Join us, as we travel to Lake Bled, Maribor and Ljubljana, with highlights including:
- Where is Slovenia?
- A brief history
- Lake Bled - Castles, fairytales and 99 steps
- Ljubljana - Architecture, parks and beer (obvs)
- Maribor - San Martin, our bestie Igor, and why we come back here every year
- Food & Wine. And lots of it!
BONUS: Do you know which of these cities is home to the world's oldest grapevine?
Let's get started.
