As everywhere in Europe, it it not allowed and very dangerous to '''cross the highway''' in Slovenia. Also be careful about crossing the red lights in Slovenian cities, you'll get a 20-40€ fine, if you get caught.
'''Wildcamping''' in Slovenia is officially prohibited, but by my personal experience, that is not a big problem. As long as you don't make fires and follow basic ruls, people won't mind you. If you want to camp close the buildings on the private property, ask the locals. And don't try to put a tent up on the tall grass, since the farmers hate it to the bottom of their hearts. As long as nobody calls the police you're good. Couchsurfing , especially in Ljubljana , works fine as well too.
'''Tips''' are not mandatory or expected in restaurants, but it is always nice to tip, if you're happy with the service. Slovenians often tip in pubsbars.
There are 2 main words for "hi" in Slovenian. '''Živjo''' (Ž is pronouced /ˈʒeː/) is used in Ljubljana and surrondings, and '''Zdravo''' is dominant around Maribor. You can make a good impression making a difference between the two;)
