Does anyone have data on the coast of Slovenia? Koper/Izola?
To answer my own question, I now have data on Izola. It's a very small town, not really a place to pickup. On the beaches around the town, which are a collection of rocks and asphalt, there are mostly families, though a few groups of girls to approach. I attempted one approach while I was there (I think tourists from elsewhere in the Balkans), and met an icy reception. Izola is really a boat town where Slovenians keep their yachts. The only reason to do Izola is if you want to go sailing, but there are many other places you could do that... Izola and several towns around there are pleasant to stroll through, however. They look a lot like Italy, although the people look more Russian and you can generally communicate fine with the locals in Russian. My cab driver and some of the hotel staff spoke better russian than english, and slovenian is a slavic language with many cognates.
I also did two nights in Ljubljana. I had the extreme misfortune of being there the day before a major futbol match, and so when I went out on Saturday night, at 1AM, there was roughly a 25:1 male to female ratio in the club I went to (forget the name). At that point, it was also mostly football fans, as it appears that the locals go out very late -- you might plan on arriving at the clubs between 1 and 2AM...
I did loads of day game for the first time in a long time in Ljubljana. My experience was different than Mixx's. Girls were very nice in virtually every interaction I had, but I never really got anywhere, though there were a few interactions where I could have pushed harder. Day game feels very inefficient to me relative to night game, but since I usually just day game naturally when I'm running errands, and have rarely ever walked around with the explicit purpose of day gaming, I'm not sure how the day gaming experience compares in Ljubljana, but my experience doing it there was quite wasteful.
There was also this pool a bit east of the city, called The Laguna if memory serves, which I heard from other travellers was awesome. I also went there, but as luck would have it, the day I went it rained, and there was some bike race which cut off the street to the pool, so that there were hardly any girls there... And, perhaps b/c they knew I was a foreigner and there was a futbol match, I believe they over-charged me some exorbitant entrance fee. Still, there were a few smoking hot girls there, and I was probably there on the worst day of summer, so it would be worth a try.
My second night -- a sunday -- my luck turned a bit better, as I hooked up with a tourist from a country in western europe whose flag I wanted. She had a boyfriend, and wouldn't put out though. No Slovenian flag for me. I'm going to have to be a bit more disciplined and methodical on my next trip...
