Bulgaria has recently become a favorite country for recreation.
Russians, many have already bought apartments or houses there by example
pop stars, and some even move there to a permanent place
residence (mostly pensioners).
But is everything so good in this beautiful country of roses? After
several visits to Bulgaria when the first euphoria of
the beauty of local landscapes, delicious food, interesting historical
attractions and goodwill of the Bulgarians, you start
notice some country flaws.
1. Bulgarian slowness. By placing an order in a restaurant or
tavern, you will wait for a long time and still have time to get hungry
more. And if you ask the waiter if you can quickly, you will be answered
with an invariable smile “Ok, now everything will be”, but this is nothing
change, have to wait farther. Such a mentality.
2. Speaking of food. If you care about shape and correct
nutrition, then in Bulgaria you will be difficult. Local dishes abundantly
flavored with olive oil, sour cream and peculiar spices (especially
Sharena-salt is popular), and a variety of pastries (mostly with
cheese stuffing) will definitely add extra kilos.
3. The roads in Bulgaria are just as bad as in Russia, although not
everywhere. However, often the sidewalks along the roads are very narrow or even
absent, even at a resort such as Sunny Beach, especially
if you move a little further from the center.
4. Quite expensive gasoline compared to Russian prices. A95
the average is 2.62 leva per liter (about 1.3 euros).
5. Local taxi drivers are pristavuchimi it to the Russian
tourists and prices are sometimes doubled up.
6. Darkness on the streets in the evening and at night is in the order of things.
The Bulgarians even save current in resorts (as they call it
electricity).
7. In some resorts began to save on drinking water. AT
there are no coolers in hotels, but tap water is terrible in taste, a cup
Tea at the bar will be offered for 2 leva (1 euro).
8. Bulgaria is a safe and secure country, but … rob there
могут в общественном транспорте ATарны или Бургаса (вытащить
wallet, cutting the bag) or snatch the bag out of hand even at the resort
the thieves passing by on motorcycles. Scare tourists and gypsies,
taking advantage of certain places on city streets. And also
�”Quietly” robbing visitors to the country and numerous exchangers.
Therefore, the exchange of money should be done only in the official exchange
points of banks, but not at airports, where the course will always not be in your
favor
9. With a large number of garbage cans of all kinds, cleanliness.
not present everywhere, especially a lot of cigarette butts in the streets and on
beaches.
10. Well, “for sweet”. Be prepared for what is on the coast
Bulgaria you can see topless ladies of all ages sunbathing
This is not prohibited by law and is quite common. there is
there are nudist beaches, and they can closely border on
resort (for example, there is such on the edge of Albena, closer to Kraynevo)
elderly German couples especially like to rest there.
