Adventures in Slovakia

 

We passed through Slovakia on our 1999 journey across Central Europe. We were so taken by what we saw, that we returned for a much longer visit in 2000. On this trip, we stayed with Servas hosts in both Banska Bystrica and Bratislava and got to experience life in Slovakia first-hand.
