Have fun, but within normal limits

Have fun, but within normal limits.

Welcome back to the GirlsvsTourism blooog. <3

The wine harvest is over and the grapes in the cellars are already turning into wine, and since wine is an important part of the Slovenian cultural heritage, it is a feast that should not be missed by any Slovenian. St. Martin's Day is fun, culinary, and cheerful.

Celebrating Martin's Day is an opportunity to meet people, spend time with your friends and relax for many. You may encounter risks from drinking, because whether you are under the influence of alcohol or someone else, there are always some risks or problems.

So, how can you drink but stay safe?

1. Drink water or soft drinks between alcoholic beverages.

2. Avoid competitions of any drinking game.

3. Do not forget to eat before and during drinking, because your body will need more time to absorb alcohol.

4. Remember that the size of the drinks is different. Cocktails, in particular, can have much more alcohol than one standard drink.

5. Be careful that no one refills your drink, so that you do not end up drinking more without knowing.

6. When you start drinking, do not distance yourself from your friends.

7. Never accept a drink from a stranger and watch your drink to make sure no one adds anything to it, such as alcohol or drugs.

If you don’t like to drink or drive, don’t drink. You’ll still have a good time and maybe even have more fun than if you were drinking.

Take care of yourself!

Bon voyage. :)
