A PERSONAL NOTE
Â
Good morning, friends!
Thank you for all the kind notes that you sent last week when I wasn't
able to write my Survival Sunday letter to you. It's so nice to be
missed! â¤ï¸ What happened is that I was traveling and had some
internet issues.
I've left my beloved Athens and moved on to Sofia, Bulgaria where I'm
doing more exploring. Initially, I'd thought to spend the year in Athens
but the wanderlust bug has bitten and there are just too many places I
want to see while there's still time. Sometimes I fear that our world
will soon become a lot smaller and there are places I want to explore
before that happens.
It's been a rainy week in Bulgaria and unseasonably cold. (It's in the
50s.) Prepper that I am, I'm making do layering the clothing I have with
me.
So, here are my initial observations about Bulgaria.
1.) The food.
Oh my gosh, the FOOD. It's incredible. Flavorful, loaded with protein,
and comforting. There's a LOT of smoked paprika in use here for
seasoning dishes.
I had a funny experience. I found a tiny little place just down the
street from where I'm staying, with an older woman, clearly a grandma,
serving what appears to be homemade traditional food from those buffet
warmers. The food is takeout only and when she's out of food, she
closes, so there are no set hours.
I managed to convey my order with pointing, sign language, and smiles
and got the most delicious goulash and mashed potatoes. I used my very
limited Bulgarian and said "Blagodarya," with a dreadful accent. She was
so delighted that she reached across the glass counter and patted my
cheeks. I haven't had my cheeks patted for a very long time but it was
delightful.
2.) The city
This week I'm in Sofia, the capital. It's a bustling city that appears
to be very safe, at least the part that I'm in. People walk around day
and night unmolested and there are loads of festivals going on,
including a lunar festival with light shows in every big park in the
city.
The architecture is absolutely incredible. To see more than I'm able to
share here, please check out my travel Instagram
<[link removed]>. Be sure to scroll through
the photos on each entry. There are places that are shabby, but the
extraordinary old-world beauty shines through.
3.) The people
There are so many warm and friendly people. I'm reminded that a smile is
the universal language.
4.) The infrastructure
I'm not sure if it's just this week or if it is an ongoing thing but
there are definitely issues with the infrastructure. They're renovating
the nearby Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, and there was a day-long planned
power outage in this neighborhood.
However, it wasn't just that. The power has flickered off twice for a
couple of hours each time during the week I've been here, and the water
has been out on three separate occasions. The elevator in the building
is a hit-or-miss kind of thing that has required a few
huffing-and-puffing trips up and down from the 6th floor with groceries.
My delightful Airbnb hosts were worried I would be unhappy about the
glitches in services but honestly, it just makes me feel well-prepared
that it was barely a blip on my radar.
Okay - I've written a novel! I'll share more next week! Thanks for being
here with me!
