DISCOVERING FAMILY AND BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY

Artists rendition of Slovenia emerging into the world.

For those interested in finding ancestors and lost relatives throughout the world, I have found Ancestry.com invaluable. Here is a hot link:

SLOVENIA IS NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH SLOVAKIA WHICH IS SOMEWHERE ELSE.

SEARCHING FOR FAMILY IN SLOVENIA

After I started my family history research, I finally found Slovenia on the globe: below Austria and Italy and across from Italy, bounded on the east by Hungry and south by Croatia.. This beautiful, uncrowded county, is easy to travel around, people are friendly, and those under 30 years old do speak passable English.

June 20, 2001, my Slovenian cousin Natasa Sterle and her family visited with us in Petaluma, California. I was glad to return some US hospitality for the great time my family showed us in Slovenia
