A nice and relaxing journey

A very nice place and quiet resort, is ideal target for family with kids, food and drinks very cheap and the people are friendly. About the security reasons I saw all the time the officers from Security companies -armed- and Police patrols on the street, here you need just to choose the proper location and enjoy the time.

3 days, not 3 months!

Oh Varna.

Life passes in a haze of beachy days and beach bar-y nights, and really there is not much else. After a week on the farm in Palamatsa, it's so nice to be here on the beach, relaxing with the hundreds of Brits, Aussies, Bulgarians, and even some Americans that find their way to Varna 'for a few days.' This is funny because so many people we met said, 'we came for 3 days and have been here for 3 months.' Woah guys, it's nice, but there are other nice places too ...

Sweeping across Bulgaria

... strong of a word, the door was opened by someone. Into the common room we finally found ourselves, "Hi". No answer from the locals. Well great this seems like a really great place. In writing you may not be able to tell that this was sarcasm. Both toilet/showers were busy so even though we both needed to go to the bathroom we had to wait to use the filthy things. Finally Dave the owner showed up ...

Nessebar to Golden Sands, Varna

Nessebar to Golden Sands (near Varna) Bulgaria

Sunny 30 degrees

We left lovely Nessebar and drove north to the seaside resort of Golden Sands, near Varna. We knew it was going to be difficult to find the hotel as we only had vague directions and no GPS map for the area. We thought we were in the right area and asked our first local for directions who told us that there had been a landslide ...

Job Relocation of the FSB

Due to the Cold War being over and the world seems to a much more settled place now, Russia has an over abundance of FSB officers with nothing to do. So, as not to have them wandering about the workplace with nothing to do, the Russian Government has rented out these ...

Trip to Balchik, Bulgaria

... restaurant on the beach and then made our way back to the car. Went for drive after that through Varna city centre, grabbed some lunch and went for a walk along the garden boulevarde that follows along the coastline. Even had one Bilgarian recognise me from working with the Stella Maris in Australia though I could not actually place him, I must have made some sort of impression on him so that he remembered me. Finally got some nice ...

At last, Varna, Bulgaria

Finally got to Varna and caught up with Damyan, though was tiuch n go as my mobile battery was just about flat and \damyan did not yet know where the bus would drop me at. Finally we meet up, and we head back to his place, say hello to his parents, and wife and then we head out for dinner at an \italian pizza parlour. After dinner had an early night as \i was completelly exhausted and was looking forward to a good night's sleep.

Back to the beach

... of fun. Except later this got confusing because some Bulgarians who have travelled or have lots of interaction with foreigners know that they do things differently, so they nod/shake their head the western way, so you can never be quite sure.... Upon arrival at the train station I was tired, hungry at it was late so I hopped in a cab to the hostel. The taxi driver turned on the meter but I instantly recognized the rate was much too high compared with an ...

Happy town

... the beach. Swam and baked for a good part of the day and just bas we were about to wrap up a nice day greg went and stood in tar and then rubbed it around with his hands so we had to go to first aid to get - what we think was straight up petrol - to clean himself up with. With so little Bulgarian money left we decided that we would cook tea at home with their plentiful kitchen and then have a coffee or ...

Kraimore. This village is for local people.

Kraimore is a tiny beach village where locals go when they want to spend time at the beach. They hate tourists in Kraimore. You go into a shop, bar, restaurant and they ignore you, are rude to you, short change you or serve locals first. Might have been nice if they weren't treating us like **** 24/7.
