Born and raised in Trieste in a bilingual Italian-Slovenian family, Roberto’s imagination wandered in search of places and adventures from an early age. As soon as he was old enough, he started travelling independently and hasn’t stopped since. His love of nature, adventure and the unknown has taken him to the trails of almost every continent and to the lecture halls of anthropology universities to study different cultures. His heart, however, has always been anchored to his homeland, the Slovenian mountains and the green forests that surround them. It is from this love that this new edition of the guide was born.To give shape to his passions, Roberto, together with his wife Martina, runs the outdoor travel agency MaroWays (www.maroways.com), which for years has accompanied hikers and travellers to discover the wonders of Trieste, Slovenia and the Balkans.
