Are you planning a vacation? Are you deciding on a vacation spot based on a travel agency catalog or hotel photos? Attention! Many tour operators are masters of deception. In their photographs, which invite guests into their embrace, they do not fake anything, but with an angle and some skilful cropping, they know how to greatly tailor reality.
In Podgarić, Croatia, Slovenian photographer Luke Paige captured two Slovenes skating on the Yugoslav monument to the revolution of the Moslavina nations, which was created by the sculptor Dušan Džamonija and which was discovered by Josip Broz - Tito himself in 1967. It symbolizes the wings of freedom, and skateboarders Jan Robek and Miha Miklavčič posed for Paige.
Top model Cara Delevingne is definitely not a shy girl and always likes to show a lot of bare skin. Usually for some fashion house, makeup brand or something. This time, however, she threw away her rags for a good cause, as she became the ambassador of the I'm Not A Trophy campaign - against wild hunting and the extermination of animal species - and her body became the canvas for the graphics of endangered animals by the artist and photographer Arno Elias.
Ta-da-da-dam! In July 2016, from the 11th to the 17th, to be precise, the 17th Sajeta Creative Camp will take place in Tolmin - a festival that brings together different creative practices and experiences in one place, where music plays a central role.
Do you think that's okay? is a campaign by the city of Ljubljana, which in a comical way raises awareness among dog owners about the collection of dog excrement. These are often the subject of dispute between the townspeople. Many times (although thankfully less and less) we see owners who are busy looking in the other direction or at their phone while their puppy poops, but when the furry one makes its way, they are quickly blown away from the scene of the crime. The owner of the dog must be transparent and responsible, which such behavior is definitely not, so MOL appeals to dog guardians to pick up dog excrement after their pets, because some child also wants to play on the green behind them.

The year is halfway over, and behind us is also a good selection of excellent films that should not be missed this year. What are the best movies of 2016 so far?
In recent years, Ljubljana has developed a lot in terms of cuisine. The offer is growing, the competition is getting tougher, and Lakotniki and Lakotnice are happily licking each other and spending more and more time deciding where to go for dinner. The In Your Pocket guide made the problem a little easier for us. In March, they conducted a survey of the best restaurants in Ljubljana. Just as you can't compare Pink Floyd to Tchaikovsky, you can't lump all restaurants in the same basket either. The In Your Pocket team is aware of this, which is why the voting for the best restaurant took place by category
André Quirinus Zurbriggen has an interesting hobby. For the past 10 years he has been collecting stones with different patterns. But these patterns were not random. He was looking for stones with letter patterns. And it took him a whole decade to create an entire alphabet from them, from which an interactive font was also developed, which you can try yourself.
