After tonight's midterm I simply couldn't resist driving around and about Ljubljana in this magnificent snowy weather we're having. It's very rare to get a chance to drive in conditions where everyone is nice and calm. Nobody honks at you, nobody tries to swerve around you and do stupid things, nobody is in a hurry.
