It's been a rainy fall in Sofia but at least it's fall. We didn't skip straight to winter or anything.  I don't mind rain. Sometimes in the moment it gets me down but on a whole, I am okay with rain.

Rainy days in Sofia?

Well, sometimes these are harder than other cities I've lived in.

It's hard to get up before six in the mornings when the sky is overcast. My room is especially dark then. The block buildings look gray, gray and the streets and sidewalks are riddled with potholes--potholes that fill up awfully fast with water.
