    “This used to be a carpark,” says my guide, Simona Skubic from Turizem Ljubljana, gesturing to the leafy square in which we are standing. To my left, an old couple contentedly read books next to each other on a park bench. Children squeal and run through the towering trees as the dappled midsummer light flecks through the canopy. It’s hard to imagine that this now vibrant community space was once a bastion of modern automobiles.

    What’s full of birds, has cracking beaches and was crowned the best place to live in 2025? Magaluf? Nah, North Berwick.

    Testing. Testing.” A village elder wearing a microphone headset kneels before a metal table topped with miniature stupa made of marigolds, a one million kip note and plates of bananas, candied peanuts and fluorescent sweets laid on fine lace. He taps the microphone. Nothing. Four women sit on either side of him, wearing white scarves draped on their shoulders; their faces crease with concern as he fumbles with the recalcitrant microphone. Still nothing.
