The discussion is limited to a selection of short Slovene travelogues which have been published in the past decade in collections by the following authors: Sonja Porle, Barva sladke čokolade, 1998, Pavle Rak, Zlati ptič na kobrini glavi, 2002, Ervin Hladnik - Milharčič, Pot na Orient, 2009, and Evald Flisar, Zgodbe s poti, 2000. The discussion includes travelogue narrations, which have hybrid genre and formal characteristics, and at the same time elements of fiction. The short travelogue stories discussed are connected to the wider discursive contexts of modern society and to cultural, postcolonial and global ecological questions.
