After a couple of years of thinking we finaly decided that it was time to become a national licenced nordic walking instructor. We attended the course with some lovely people from all over Slovenia.

We just love nordic walking, it offers such a variety of options how to use the poles. From just simple walking to endurance and strength training, all in the nature!

Poles force your upper body to become active during the walk and your heart rate rizes for 15bpm compared to a normal walk.

Another great weekend is behind us.
We decided to organize a creative Saturday evening with the children from our small village of Orehek.
We have sent out the invitation three days before and more than 15 children came to our workshop, which is more than 80 percent of all we have invited. WOW!

We were happy!
And so were the children, with all the incredible things they have created. We had so much fun that we almost forgot to take pictures. Here are some, taken with Dejan's phone. :)

Our friend Katja came to visit us in Orehek. She works and creates in the small town named Tomaj in the Kras region of Slovenia.
We organized an art workshop where we have made decorations and ornaments made ​​from natural materials. From twigs, cobs, straw, twine and similar materials and with a little imagination and some gold and silver color we have created unique decorations for the December holidays.

Had a great time creating pumpkin decorations with children from our local community.  Zoja painted her pumpkin in several different colours and when she was finished it looked amazing. Take a look at the pic. ;)
