Ljubljana Wins!
I'm not entirely sure what, but it wins something.
On one hand it is a picturesque little town, riverside cafes, bridges decorated with crystals and glass. On the other hand it has amazing street-art, one well known artist's squat (Metelkova) and another one, hidden in an abandoned warehouse.
No one locks their bikes up and the locals I encountered were incredibly friendly.
Some new friends, Jo and Mimo, and I were lucky enough to be invited, at 3 in the morning, to go see the abandoned warehouse. A group of artists have taken over three floors of it and have turned it into a living/working/performance space. It was interesting talking to the people who hang out there; some of them want it to be a completely public space, others want to keep it more exclusive, and one guy thought no one should be allowed to live there (even though he just goes and hangs out and people are angry with him for not doing any work).
