We visited Trieste in 1996 http://www.thetravelzine.com/italy1.htm and hope to return in the future. At the time, we hadn't yet met Paolo, one of the Zine moderators, who lives in Trieste. Paolo would be reason enough to go - but the city is worth a detour.

And Portoroz! All of Slovenia is so special; you're in for a treat. Be sure to read our travelogues before you go: http://www.thetravelzine.com/slovenia1.htm http://www.thetravelzine.com/slovenia6991.htm A Ziner friend of ours lives in Nova Gorica; we've written about Goran in our travelogues.
