Happy travels, Ladies. You are adorable. Best of luck! (Yes, rakia is super strong and it was quite a bit .G ood for you for being so brave to drink it. )
The best way to drink rakia is with salad or some kind of appetizer before the main meal.
A tour video haven`t had me pleased so much in a while. (That`s it… that`s my whole comment :P)
Just kidding there is a bit more :P… My original comment (near the mid) was "I watch plenty of foreigners visit Bulgaria (mostly Sofia and other Large towns, is what I actually am interested in, because not that I don`t like the rest, it really is that there just isn`t anything of my interest in there… which many of my fellow country mates would rate "bad and stupid" but it is as it is) , but no one have made Sofia look that attractive (in terms of hospitable) and pleasant looking for me… in a while… if ever. (I have a brief moment of my life, at this point in time it kind of feels and is that, living in there ~even partially so… I were registered as an official resident, but I also had a fair portion of my life in my native town at all times during that duration). Now the two times you had denied ~didn`t actually turned my generated opinion. But near the end… Your two personas just made it to what I began with "A very good watch for me that was". Thank you Jill and Hannah.
You probably mean: Europe's most expensive country? Bulgaria has one of the highest electronics and groceries prices in the whole EU !! And also the highest rise in real estates prices !! Only property rentals are extremely low! Also its the poorest, the dirtiest and the fastest depopulating country in EU !! This is the statistics, not only my opinion.
Southeast Europe.So they will not go to northern Europe.The vikings.Who wouldn't.
Haha
I'm pretty sure Kosovo, Macedonia and Albania are even less expensive than Bulgaria but I get your point. Make the most of it! 🙂
You done did good, better than most, and that area of town is not the best, for the future go to the south part of Sofia.
А… ПОПИТАХТЕ ЛИ УЧТИВО – МОЖЕ ЛИ ДА СНИМАТЕ ? АКО НЕ СТЕ ПОПИТАЛИ ,ТО НЕ. СЕ ВЪЗМУЩАВАЙТЕ. ЧЕ СА ВИ ИЗГОНИЛИ -КРАСИВИ МЛАДИ ДАМИ !
Cheapest country? huh? Are we talking about the cost of living, or are you trying to imply that Bulgaria is the "poorest"? Because in both cases you'd be wrong. Bulgaria is "poorest" only in the EU. Though that's soon to change as well, since Bulgaria is catching up to other EU members in the purchasing power index and with the current trajectory, is to start overtaking some in the near future. Cheapest? Yeah, that could have been the case about 5 years ago. Not anymore. Even food you'd buy at the grocery store is now on average more expensive than many other EU countries, despite people having lower salaries. So, feel free to change the title, since Bulgaria is still a hidden gem, but definitely not the cheapest nor the poorest in Europe.
Great informative video! The Bulgarian food and coffee looks delicious! Please keep safe and keep on making these entertaining informative videos! Thanks and loves! 🤩😍😻
So sad 😟 that you think Bulgaria is a cheap destination
Bulgaria has a lot to show you besides the food and the capital itself
If you, dear ladies, you had bothered to ask google
What we can see in Bulgaria
Then you would see how much information you would get
Bulgaria has a sea, mountains, waterfalls, and is the third country in Europe with the most ancient history after Italy and Greece
Not several countries, Russian Empire, liberated Bulgaria
''Europe's CHEAPEST Country!'' … I do apologise, but that's a bit misleading
🙂👍💜
It looks like Kontesa – the place you had rakia 🙂 and the dogs name is Pipi 🙂
Don't drink something, if you don't really like it 😊 Please, don't be so "skrundza" 😂
There are about 7 European countries that are cheaper than Bulgaria, if you're talking about the EU countries ok, but jeez, it just goes to show that girls for whatever reason hate geography.
WTF mean "Cheapest country" ?!
Yay! I was kinda thinking you might be going to Contessa. We do take foreigners who want to try rakia there 🙂
Cheapest my ass
on 9:32 you missed the ruins of the palace of the Roman emperor Costantine the Great. Cherrs
They said if the guy getting a pizza at the door looked like the municipal court judge everybody would get messed up in the head.
cheapest for you maybe but for Bulgarians in lev inflation hit hard
You did good with the rakia, too bad that you disn't saw more of Sofiq
Are you guys Sisters? You look a lot alike.
Bulgaria is a small country but you can see a loooot. We have a beautiful sea, mountains with amazing and breathtaking views ❤
After Bulgarian Rakia tritment ,you guys so cool 😎 😂😂😂😂 💪👽🇧🇬
not the cheapest by a lot – so Albania, Moldova and Montenegro mean nothing to you?! Macedonia is way cheaper too, maybe you meant EU?
You are not made for rakia darling its only for balkan folks 😂
For Bulgarians it is quite expensive compared to the minimum wage and the pension. It is definitely not the cheapest country in Europe. Nevertheless it is a wonderful country.
I just found you and im so happy to hear that you like my city! I'd suggest you travel around the country and check out Plovdiv and the seaside cities like Sozopol especially in the summer 🙂
A fun fact is Sofia was bombed by the USA even though we were a passive country on the side of the Germans, refused to join the war, and saved a lot of ppl. East, remember, and winter is coming. He he he…
Bulgaria is the 5th cheapest country in Europe, not the 1st. The cheapest country in Europe is Hungary.
Thanks for visiting my country! The dish you eat on 5:30 it's called Яйца по Панагурски or Panagurski Eggs. Panagurishte it's a village in Bulgaria.
I AM SURPRISED AT HOW 'EXPENSIVE' THE MEALS WERE, THOUGHT IT WOULD BE LESS. GREAT VIDEO!
Are you thinking of taking a walk around my country again? I'm from Sofia, but if you come again, there are many small towns full of history. I'm sure you'll be fascinated 🙂
If you chug that glass of rakia you will find yourself under the table.. 😅 so i dont recommend it
Not the cheapest, food is more expensive than many western countries like Spain, Germany and France for example
You guys must contact and catchup with Alina McLeod and do a vlog together.
whats happened to the posts, hope you girls are ok.
