They came to Gorenjska for experience.

Four volunteers—two younger French individuals, Laure Rapin and Vivien Meplain, and two older Americans, Peggy and Patrick Rebol—are staying at Šenkova farm on Jezersko. The American couple, retired residents of Wisconsin, have visited Slovenia multiple times and chose this location through the WWOOF program, which connects volunteers with organic farms globally. They assist with tasks such as gardening and farm work in exchange for accommodation and food. The French pair, students from northeastern France, discovered Slovenia through online research and were drawn to its natural beauty, including mountains and lakes. Both groups enjoy their time at the farm and explore the surrounding area during their free days. The Americans have already visited several notable locations in Slovenia, including Bled, Bohinj, Piran, Tolmin, Kranjska Gora, and Kobarid, and they express great enthusiasm for the country.
