Zdraste! Long time reader, finally thought I would comment.

I just wanted to say that I adore your blog. I have been dating a Bulgarian for over a year now and visited for a month in January. Somehow your posts help me get through the months away from my boyfriend. BG is a beautiful and fascinating country and your posts make me feel homesick for a country that isn't my home, yet...

Anyway, glad you are there for another year, maybe one day I'll run into you on those cobbly old sidewalks in Sofia!

P.S. My bf lives in Smolyan. If you haven't already gone, you should! It is very charming and pretty.
