I have decided to start a blog at long last! I travel to Sofia this weekend (16/1/2010) and will keep you updated about my time there! I will be stopping at the Hostel Mostel for a few nights - I highly recommend this place if you stay in Sofia. 44 lev a night for a clean room including breakie and beer. How good is that!
On arrival its off to my favourite night club in Sofia 'Sin City' to dance and drink the night away. I might post some pictures when time allows!
The one thing I am a little worried about is that my passport has less than 6 months to run until it expires - hope they let me through border control! I checked with the Embassy and they said that as Bulgaria is in the EU it should be OK...We will see.
The weather in the UK is really bad today and we are snowed in. Just heard on the news that Gatwick is canceling flights to many destinations. Sofia airport always manages to keep the runways clear and they have more snow than us - why can't we keep ours gritted? Its the same in the villages, they get snowed in but everyone works together and clears the roads. Over here everything comes to a stand still...I can see why many of my customers buy in BG in order to emigrate! There is also a major lesson I've drawn as an observer of these people, the danger of forcing political correctness on everyone. To me, this was the start of a slow decline, and why so many have moved on and started a new life abroad.
Just had a look at the webcam in Rousse and the sun is out. The weather in Bulgaria is much better than the UK this year (So far!). Bulgaria is known for its hot summers and cold winters but the last few years have seen better winters than we have had here. Roll on the weekend....
Thats it for now..Chow chow
