Ok I know my experience in Bulgaria is limited but here is my list of things to do while in Bulgaria, and yes I will add to this list as my time goes on…
1: Leave Sofia, yes I know Sofia is a wonderful place full of many wonderful and magical places such as Starbucks and McDonald’s, but there are more places to see.
2: Visit Sofia, this trip will remind you why Bulgaria is in the European Union. I suggest visiting the downtown area, check out the monuments and the Presidential Palace.
