Slovenia is one of the cleanest countries in the world, according to Drew Binsky, a well-known global traveller and vlogger who has travelled to almost every country on the planet.

Binsky visited Slovenia twice and he was really pleasantly surprised at how clean the country is: “I’ve been to Slovenia twice, most recently last summer where I had the chance to drive around the entire country and, oh my God, it is one of the greenest places in the world. Slovenia is a third most forested country in Europe and in 2016, it was named the very first certified green destination in the world. I went to a lot of small cities and towns but I think the capital of Ljubljana is a perfect representation of how clean the whole country is. Everything is perfectly maintained, well-kept, people are very respectful, it’s charming, it’s quiet, it’s so green and so enjoyable and speaking about it right now just makes me want to go back there and if you do go to Slovenia, you have to promise me to go up north to Lake Bled.”

Drew Binsky is an American travel blogger and vlogger. He documents his travels on his YouTube channel and other social media sites. As of now, he has visited 191 countries and planned to visit every country in the world by June 2020 until the coronavirus pandemic put the last few countries on hold.

Beside Slovenia, Binsky also included New Zealand, Iceland, Singapore and Rwanda to his list of the world’s cleanest nations. His video is available below:
