Caffe alle porte, Izola, Slovenia

Caffe alle porte. On a very good location in Izola on Slovenian coast. Coffee, tea and art gallery.

Mitja Andlovec - While working for Sandoz (division of Novartis) and making sure that their IT systems and solutions comply to their high quality standards, he is also engaged on investment opportunities, such as real estate and stock exchange market. Born in Trbovlje, raised in Litija, lives in Ljubljana and loves to go to his home away from home in Izola. His grandfather was used to cool his forearm in cold stream on really hot days, while working with hay - the so called hay days. FRI graduate, during study worked as a tour guide for Collegium, had a small part in Slovenian privatisation story and then went on to work in IT related jobs at Lek and Sandoz. Loves hiking, travelling and whitewater kayaking. When younger he was practicing athletics till Chernobyl disaster (all outdoor activities stopped for a while, causing him to drop that line of sport). Lately a lot of efforts were put into building his vacation home in Izola from scratch, not leaving him enough time to read, but despite all odds he managed to read and be fascinated by Alamut written by Vladimir Bartol. A true recommendation.As he will achieve monetary freedom heights, his neophilia will crystallize, pushing him in forever new ways of creating value and excitement, while helping to improve people's lives. One day he will lose his virginity in Sir Richard Branson's way. "Nothing is real, everything is allowed."

Martina Kaplja - working in Hypo Group Alpe Adria back office, making sure that all promises of front office colleagues are frictionless fulfilled. Born in Ljubljana, raised in Litija, and now lives in Ljubljana (with Mitja). Her father is a passionate hunter, who turned to protecting and raising wild animals. A long way from hunting groundhogs. Turistica graduate, grew up to be the back office expert. Everybody needs a good back office support. EF, Bojan Pozar and now Hypo, have all benefited from her back office skills. For years she used to walk 10 km almost every day to her school and back. She discovered the secrets of oriental dance with help of Anita Sobar. The Celestine Prophecy was just one of the books that got her interested in the other side. She's about to talk to her angels soon. One day she will have her own counseling practice. For couples and kids and also extending the counseling business with retreat-type hotel destinations.
