@none Carolyn has a more right to generalize her views for Bulgaria then  most of the Bulgarians have when they speak about Americans. It is easy for us to get offended but at least she has an experience with Bulgaria, while most Bulgarians will speak of Americans being this or that when they have never even met one. Don't be so touchy - Bulgaria is a crazy place and we all know it. It is a good think that Carolyn appreciate the country despite all our quirks...
