Hi! My name is Jumpy, Citroen Jumpy. My family is Val&Kar, but something happened last week. Something, I want to tell you about. I was taken away from my family by Nina and Ellie. You already know them – they…
Which year is it? No, seriously. I am not a retard, and yes, I know we write “2016” at the end of our letters and applications. My question is a little different. Before Jesus Christ, after Jesus Christ, new era…
If it wasn’t for Galin & Darina, we would have never gone to Yailata. When I was reading about the region of Kavarna before our recent epic trip, this place didn’t even pop out as a recommended stop and we…
Today is the fifth day we woke up without Krassi’s large smile greeting us. Without the cheerful laugh of our fellow travelers. Without Galin presenting us with (yet another) bursting with adventures daily schedule. Today, Darina won’t be telling us…
Laying on the beach all day, having the sun gently caressing every part of your nearly naked body and being totally relaxed sounds nice. In reality, however, it gets really boring, really fast. Which is why we have a solution (we…
Kaliakra looked around trying to meet the eyes of one of the other 39 girls. She couldn’t. Sadness and despair was loaded in the air around them, and each maiden seemed to have lost touch with reality. They were all prisoners.…
Ever had your holidays destroyed? Booked a place online because of the gorgeous photos and ended up with a horrendous service? Or a place that looks nothing like what you saw on photos? We’ve been there and it sucks. Which…
The first time we saw pictures from the Eyes of God cave (Prohodna cave) we didn’t even realize it’s located in Bulgaria. Luckily, it is. And the best part: it’s only about an hour drive from Sofia (112km)! How to get to…
I’ve heard lots of people praise Plovdiv lately and it has always surprised me that they seem to know nothing about Veliko Tarnovo. In our humble opinion the old capital of Bulgaria is WAY prettier than Plovdiv. Instead of trying…
Live in Sofia and eat out? Then you must be as tired as I am from largely advertised new steakhouses that offer medium quality meat, and Italian restaurants which claim to have it all figured out but serve the same…
As you may know, Bulgarians are Orthodox Christians, and Easter here is usually during a different time than the rest of the world. If you are on the territory of Bulgaria during our Easter (this year it begins on the 28th…
Do you want to be freaking out, while trying not to slide down a nearly vertical rock, passing under a massive stone, stuck between the tallest sides of this very same rock? I know you do! You can find this…
Whether you believe in miracles or not, we all face times in our lives when we most certainly need one. Be it because we’re praying for a better job, a child, a cure to a disease we have or simply…
Whether you hate us, travel bloggers, or you love us, the one thing you can’t deny is that what we do is quite useful. People reach out to us when searching for information for various places or when looking to plan…
I do not normally write posts like this one here, but when I get screwed by company, I do feel I need to share it with the world. This is why most of what you will read here is my…
Do you believe that monasteries are not built on random locations (especially the old ones)? I certainly do. We, human beings, are definitely way more logical and hence perhaps more intelligent nowadays (if this is really what intelligence is about).…
One of our most favorite destinations, the 7 Rila Lakes, is without a doubt also one of the most beautiful places to visit in Bulgaria. Spending several days in the Sapareva Banya and dedicating one of those days to the lakes is an…
Hi, how are you? Before you read on about the cars I’ve used from Val & Kar, I guess it will be fair to say why you should be trusting my judgement. After all, I am a woman and we,…
If you thought time travelling is impossible, I got interesting news for you: it actually isn’t. Especially if you’ve lived in Bulgaria in the 90’s and take a trip to Nis in modern days. I have always loved Serbia and…
Nis is one of those cities with hundreds of restaurants which are, however, completely undiscoverable exactly when you need them. On our first day there, we took a walk around town and in the early afternoon, we decided it was…
