Why WE Moved/ Retired to Rural Bulgaria for 2 YEARS
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 лют 2023
- After hundreds of requests, we finally took the time to sit down and tell you our background story that made us decide to move halfway across the world to Bulgaria from the UK.
It's the first of this style of video on our channel so let us know if you want more like this, any other questions that you would like us to answer or even if you're going through similar lifestyle changes, we'd love to hear from you 🙂
Thanks again for watching!
Moved to Bulgaria 5years ago and haven’t looked back since. My dream house, my huge garden that feeds me. Nature, clean air, the weather! It was a no-brainer.
All the best things in life 🙏
Where are you based? I’m in Konak, an hour from VT
@@sebastianvagabond4692 In the Stahitza region, around 45 mins from VT 🙂 looks like you're 1 hour away from us! 😅
Small Country 😂 if you’re ever over this way in the summer the beer is always cold and plentiful. We go into VT every now and then but I like the peace of the village so never stray out for long 😁
@@sebastianvagabond4692 haha thanks for the invite, would you be able to add us on Facebook or Instagram to stay in touch easier? 🍻
You guys have realized something that unfortunately a lot of bulgarians dont realize - buying a house in BG is a huge win, especially if you have enough land. Im planning to move to a village house in the next 5 years, the life in Varna is as gray as you described the city life in UK 😁
Awesome story! My grandfather came to USA from Macedonia/Bulgaria in 1910 due to the Ottoman empire issues. Now I get to see how he likely lived. Thank you!
Wow, how interesting! Thanks for the comment 😊
Are your grandmothers also Bulgarian? Have you ever been in BG do you have any Bulgarian friends? We have huge communities all over in all big cities of USA from new emigrants especially in Chicago.
Been in Bulgaria 8 to 9 years Im lucky as I work for UK financial firms and hated at first but must confess I really love it now. I have a daughter that was born here and both kids speak Bulgarian. Good for you guys
Amazing, thanks for sharing 😊 🥰
Wow 👌 👏. What an interesting story. We r planning on going to bg too. Can u please 🙏 tell us how much a couple need to live comfortably per month without paying a rent?
@@Radio280 well this is really variable some people spend 500 leva some 1000 leva. we tend to spend around 2000 leva which is around 1k but this covers me, my 2 kids, wife and my mother and father in law. We do grow our own stuff and dont pay any rent but we live well I think.
I can assure you that they don't "speak" Bulgarian.
Welcome to Bulgaria, what a lovely couple you are! Best wishes and all the best, greetings from Varna on the Black Sea coast.
Aw thank you! Best wishes to you too, I can imagine the scenery around you is amazing!
Warm welcome to Bulgaria. Your mindset and accents are quite interesting. You bought the house at the very right moment. Amazing price! I travel a lot across the country and coming from Sofia, I really enjoy my time in the countryside because you meet quite authentic people (those you were precisely talking about) and interesting people full of stories. The mentality is not the same at all in the bigger cities. Of course, young and fresh positive people like yourselves, in our sadly depopulated villages following the collapse of communism, are more than welcome in probably any village.
Whilst in Bulgaria and as time goes by, you will realise we also have various dialects mainly harder Western and Eastern softer ones. Wishing you a great, relaxed and safe life. You sounded so relaxed lol (or at least that was the impression) 😄
Thank you so much for your kind words ☺️ it really means a lot to us that Bulgarians are not only interested in how we do things but like you mentioned, the Bulgarias welcome us with open arms when they see us trying to integrate the more we develop our plot.
We love listening to our neighbors stories and history lessons of the country, even if it's abit scrambled with the translation haha 😅
Good for you, I’ve been to Bulgaria many times and love the country and people, soooo friendly and helpful.
I’ll follow your channel.
We've always felt so welcomed here, glad you're enjoying the channel, welcome to the family 😊
Amazing video you are 100% accurate on what you say I have been here for 4 months now got my residency card abut 3 months ago what a beautiful country and lovely people Ilove the video keep them coming 👍
Really glad you like the video! Thanks again, good luck in your journey too!
Thank you for this video it was so interesting to hear your story. Adam and I got here about the same time as you and we both wish we had done it when we were younger! The lifestyle here is so much more relaxed, like you say it isn't all about the money! Best wishes
Thanks for watching, we feel so lucky to be in this position at our age, it's priceless ☺️ best wishes to you both also! We enjoy watching your weekly videos 😊
But, one should consider 🤔 the money aspect as well isn't it? Do u know how much money are needed for a couple to live comfortably in Bulgaria 🇧🇬 without paying a rent in the villages around Burgas 🤔? I really need to know please
You look so happy and peaceful
Thanks so much for your kindness 🤗
Hi guys wonderful channel ,It's great to see you living the life you want and really enjoy watching all the best
Thank you so much! 🥰
You are very nice young people, may you be alive and well and always happy.
That is so kind, thank you so much 😊 we wish you good health, wealth and prosperity 😊
Really enjoyed that. Thanks for sharing. X
Hello Guys !.......sending my love !, proud of you both !
This was super informative and inspiring! I’m considering Bulgaria myself and just found and subscribed to your channel!
Thank you so much! We always try to be as transparent and as genuine as possible 🥰 best of luck with your potential future adventure 🙏🤞
Love seeing you both grow we watch your videos ,and love the freedom you have you can not buy the lifestyle you have. The saying money doesn't buy you happiness is true, keep up the great filming we would rather watch you both than anything on TV good luck to the both of you amazing people
Kevin, those are such kind words thank you so much for your comment, it really warms our heart that people enjoy our content and lifestyle videos 🙂 we hope you're keeping well and warm this winter, best wishes 😊
great vid guys....all the best
Thanks, you too 😊
You are amazing couple! Love your video! Just joined your channel. Hi from a Bulgarian living in Kent, UK! ☀️🔝👍
Wow! Thank you, we're really glad you're enjoying the content and welcome to the family! 😊
Hi. No idea if you will see my comment as I know this video is over 9 months old, but what the hell :) . Came across your video having searched for 'retiring abroad from UK' on UA-cam. My search started over 2 hours ago and then yours appeared and what a breath of fresh air! A few comments if I may....firstly...can I just say what a beautiful couple you are, you are both lucky to have each other as you both hold the same outlook on your lives, may you always be blessed to continue your dreams! Secondly...I am at the other end of the age scale, well into the 'Winter of my Life' as I call it, looking to start the final chapter in my story :) and due to the passing of my 95 year old mother this year, having looked after her for the last 5 years, am now trying to decide the best place to live out the rest of my years, however many that may be. A few decades ago I spent a few weeks on holiday In Bulgaria in a holiday resort and while staying there a taxi driver offered to be available for any trip I, and any of my party, wanted to take. A great guy. There was one trip that meant going off into the mountains many miles from the hotel, he quoted something none of us believed, the price was so low. He offered to wait for us until we were ready to come back, even though it would be 4 hours or more and the waiting time was included! We booked him, and when we arrived, we invited him to join us and not stay alone. Part of the trip included a 3 course meal and we paid for his meal and then when we arrived back at the hotel we paid him double the fare, simply because he was honest and humble, with no wish to rip us off. Yes we came across some Bulgarians who were not so nice, but they were definitely the minority. So, sorry for the long post, but as I already know property in Bulgaria is still affordable my question is, would you consider Bulgaria a place for someone like me, just me no one else, should consider as a place to consider as my final port? You may think this is a strange and long post, but to be honest, I just felt that your video inspired me to write it. Anyway, I wish you both the best in your future dreams, take care of each other, may the Sun always shine down upon you both.
Well-done guys! keep the videos coming!!
Cheers bro! Thanks for watching 😅 hope you're doing well 🙂
Moving to Bulgaria from USSA. Subscribed!
Best of luck! Thank you for the support ❤️
Great vid. I’m looking forward to visiting Bulgaria in November. I’m really hoping the residency visa is not a huge headache to process. I am ready for village life!
Best of luck! It could take a while from what we've heard, so no better time than now 😄
Hello guys! I admire you for the decision u made! I am Bulgarian , spend 6 years of my life in the UK had full time job good pay BUT! All I could afford was share house (I’m single) no matter how much I work and what crazy overtime I do - that’s it…. At some point I bought a flat in Bulgaria and two years later (in 2022 March) I moved back to Bulgaria! So far I don’t regrets for my decision. My flat is not finished yet but I live with my parents, found online job (it’s a call Center customer service for UK company) the salary isn’t great BUT it’s 10 to 18:30 Monday to Friday no crazy hours I have time to spend with my family nieces we also grown food in the back yard and I’m HAPPY! Currently I find more and more UA-cam channels like yours and I am amazed ! Honestly there is a lot UK residents moving to Bulgaria - young people with kids or just young people hah enjoying the nature, clean air and stuff. I’m happy seeing people like you. Don’t worry IF you decide, you can find a job. The situation with jobs isn’t that bad specially when the managers hear u r coming from UK they will hire you right away ❤ much love from the sea side guys!
It's so intriguing to hear the perspective from the other side, and as you say, the wages might be higher in the UK but it matches living costs 🤷
Great that you're coming back though and we're hearing from a lot of people in a similar situation that are coming back to their roots here in BG and developing their home towns 🙂
Thanks for your comment, and keep in touch! We'd love to meet you one day ☺️
Wow, that is a good info. Ty. We r bulgarians too, but haven't been in our country for many many years. Not even for a day visit. We don't know how the money look like even. We too r going to return probably soon, and we would like to know how much money is needed for a couple to live in the villages south of Burgas? Without paying any rent of course...Can u give us a rough idea please 🙏
Hi. How can you get a full medical cover in Bulgaria if you move form EU for example from Poland? Thank you.
Should I talk to a lawer or speak to the Bulgarian Health Department?
@@MAXMAX-nr8jc if you have a job in Bulgaria that’s enough - then you need to register in a local GP with proof of address. If you don’t have a job you need to pay on your on. That’s have to be done in NAP - national agency of income and you have to pay monthly and still can be registered with GP
Congrats on the move !!
I have been in Bulgaria for 2 years now, in Bansko
So many expats and digital nomads live here, most of us make our money online, so many ways to do it !!
Good luck guys :)
I'm surprised you're saying that electricity is cheaper... all my friends in the UK told me my bills are insane.
Maybe your area is cheaper...
In Bansko you can easily pay 200 euros per month for a one bedroom apartment, and that would be if you're not using it as much...
Thanks haha! Now that does sound expensive compared to us! It must be the more Rural rates for sure then! So cool how you've been here for the same time as us ☺️
@@MeyTribe If your electricity bill is 200 euros anywhere in Bulgaria, you're getting ripped off. You're probably paying for all your neighbors as well. Even if your heating is electric it shouldn't be that high for a one bedroom apartment.
@@TheVadrigar Some people get 700 euro per month for one or two bedrooms...
Electricity prices are often commercial in my area, it's not a neighbour ripping you off, it's the electricity company that decided it's commercial and not private.
and even with private, you can deg get to 10-15 euros a day heating uo a one bedroom, no rip off- literally the rates.
Awesome story. I m looking forward to visiting this country. Hopefully.
Best of luck on your travels 🥰
Well done guys. Love to do what you've done.
Thank you for your support 🙏😊
I'm thoroughly impressed, good job!!!
Thanks!
Welcome to Bulgaria! It's true that Bulgarians in the countryside are friendly. Still, be careful. There are opportunist that would exploit you. Don't be naive. Best regards and hope you have a wonderful time here :)
Understood, thanks haha 😊
There are bad people everywhere but our nature is to be nice and helping people. We are the one ready to give our last food for those in need and we will be happy to do it! 🤗😍
Couldn't of said it better myself 🥰
Welcome to Bulgaria!
Great approach to life and living!!
Much love 🤙
Wish you all the best in Bulgaria. It is my second home . And i love the country.
Thanks so much! We're loving it here 😊
We love you guys, your authenticity & complete honesty, just throughly good people 🫶🏼
We’re only starting our move to Bulgaria post Brexit , this is going be a trip 😒 Wow it’s a whole new ball game, I don’t think they want us moving around anymore 😌
Anyway most importantly which I should of addressed first
Congratulations on the birth of your little Lad 💙💎 👣 enjoy every minute,
You will never know a love like it 🥰
love D&G see ya in Bulga
( if we ever make it )
Great story! We moved from South Africa 2 years ago, bought a house, and love and live our dream now. Great place to retire.
Woah how cool! 😁
Hi Guys Really good video. You both sound like a younger version of my husband and I. We also came over to get off the hamster wheel. No jobs and just looking to find our homestead and
live life on the land and enjoy the riches of the Bulgarian life style. You are so right about the Bulgarian kindness and warmth the show us. We hope to meet up you both soon on rural travels. 😘
How awesome haha there's definitely a "calling" ☺️ it's so nice to hear other people having similar experiences! ☺️ Looking forward to it!!
Hi. How can you get a full medical cover in Bulgaria if you move form EU for example from Poland? Thank you.
Should I talk to a lawer or speak to the Bulgarian Health Department?
I have a few rifles that were made in Sofia. I have always been intrigued with Bulgaria since the Iron Curtain dissolved.
Hi! My wife and I also have lived in Bulgaria for a few years. You have taken on a wonderful and deep challenge! I am a subscriber to your channel, and look forward to each of your videos.
From my experience, the big cities were easy for English speakers like us to navigate. But the village almost necessitates knowing the language at a C1/C2 level. Looking at the titles of your videos I did not see anything about the challenge of learning the language, and what your plans might be around that challenge. I'm really curious to understand that.
Hey Ryan, thanks for your support, we are continuously learning new words and phrases from day to day, we have been using homemade flash cards, listening to bulgarian radio and also spending time with our neighbors who help us pronounce and understand the language. We definitely understand more than what we can speak but we seem to get by pretty well.
I can imagine you're not the only one wondering this so there could be a explanation video of what and how overcome the challenges of the language barrier on the channel soon.
Really glad you enjoy following our journey 🤗
Enjoy every moment life's for living 🙂
Great vid, i was trying to put my finger on your accent but couldn't quite place it, i'm from Warrington and knew you were from not a million miles away. Really jealous of your electricity prices, i live in central Sweden and it's bloody cold atm, the last monthly electricty bill for December was 4000 kr or £315.
I'm from Huddersfield, Anisha is from Brigg, we have people asking us about our accents haha 😅
Wow, that's interesting, hope you're keeping well and surviving okay.
Welcome :)
Weldone brill from cheshire ❤
Can you tell how you provide proof of income for the visa? Thanks
You do have to have an income I find. Sounds great but money is needed. I did the same as you in France. Good luck ! the Uk is very difficult i think and ridiculous prices.
Quite right, it's being able to make an income, without being chained to a boss, or working 9-5, that's what we believe anyway. Crypto currency will save us, and already has allowed us to get this far and all we need is an internet connection
Hello again! :) Are you still in Bulgaria? How is the town of Strazica close to your place? Is it good or is it depopulating? How do you find life now in Bulgaria? Expensive? Have you got a full medical insurance / full state health care now? Any concerns now I shoud be aware of now? Have you got a good lawer to go through buying a house. Thanks
Hi. How can you get a full medical cover in Bulgaria if you move form EU for example from Poland? Thank you.
Hey, we hope to have answered your question on your other comment 🙏
Hi from Australia,, you guys are amazing. wondering what you do for income
Hey there! We currently rely completely on cryptocurrency profits to survive. It's volatile but we're making it work 🤣 thanks so much for your support! 😍
Im looking at buying property/land in Bulgaria to live off grid.
I currently live in bretagne france as bought land there to live off grid.
What advice would you hive.
Im 30 and self employed in security industry so i work all over uk and france 🇫🇷.
Salut, tu as fait le pas, finalement?
It sounds like things there aren’t “cheap”… they are actually “affordable” and “reasonable”, they way things were supposed to be!!!!❤👏🏽👏🏽⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Definitely one way to look at it!! 🙈🤔
We are not going away because there is no job in Bulgaria! There are many reasons to do it... most of us are doing this because we need to take care of our parents and for that we need more money.... i left Bulgaria 8 years ago to get marryed because for me there is not posible... i miss my home.... i miss my family... i miss it all. Im happy you are there and never be afraid to ask your nightbors for help because they will be more as a family for you❤
Thank you for sharing your perspective! It really helps not only us to understand, but anyone seeing our video 🙂
are you sure? there is a huge lack of manpower throughout bulgaria. i still live 8 years ago i think.
@@gizemlikisi6213 what do you mean?
@@gerrykrysteva4098 there are jobs in bg
Is citizenship difficult ? Thankz guys.
Boa noite, sou do Brasil. Deus abençoe vocês. ❤
Hi. Which village do you live in?
We in a village in the Stahitza region of Veliko Tarnavo, We would rather keep the exact village as hidden as possible on here just for privacy and safety reasons 🙂
you are so right about Bulgarians, they are friendly, helping and curious, but not all people would find it fascinating. i am an introvert and quite a reserved person, i don't like when people come unannounced or look what i do and how i do, for me Bulgarians' curiosity is simply nosiness, especially if i know people well enough, quite often they prefer to look what other people do rather than do smth themselves. and give advice on smth they don't know, when not asked.... also i don't like that they can be patronising, i do understand that they want to teach me the bulgarian ways, to adapt to the country but not everything bulgarians do i find acceptable and reasonable..... i have my own approach to gardening, to training and caring of my pets, to building and designing our house, which used to receive a lot of disapproval from villagers, male ones particularly, because i am female, i am a foreigner and i am young (i look younger than i am), so by default i am not able to know anything.... at the beginning i was polite but then got fed up with constant shaking their heads and asked them to leave me alone, in a rude way. eventually they had to learn to respect and accept the way i am, and surprisingly they still like me :) so learning to protect your privacy and keep boundaries is essential in bulgaria.
We can relate to alot of the things you've said so thanks for taking the time to comment,
There comes a time where we prefer to just do things our way and not always wanted the additional advice from neighbors, but we feel so far it has been balanced enough and the boundaries are respected. It does t help how half off our plot is exposed by a wire fence on the street, so it almosts "asks" for the curiosity if you know what I mean.
I can imagine that being looked at as someone who "must not know what they're doing" is incredibly irritating so im glad you're heading towards the respectful relationship because we've also heard of other people experiencing similar things. Hope i haven't offended you there, it's not intentional 🙂
@@MarkandAnisha which part of your reply could have offended me? :) well, our house is just opposite the only shop and "bar" and we have wire fence as well, so we were for locals an everyday morning and evening live show for a year, smth to watch with a bottle of beer. now as we have some extensions built and more trees and shrubs along the fence and people got to know us better, the show was over. at the same time it's great to be a foreigner here because if you insist on doing smth differently they just say "oh, those brits are crazy/eccentric" (my husband is an english, i am not but who cares) and leave you alone. i left my country (it shares a lot of history with bulgaria and people have same mentality) exactly for the reason that i couldn't do anything my own way, so i am enjoying being "weird" here :)
Haha yes it's definitely like a news channel or sitcom whenever people pass our fence.. Especially since they see us digging a huge hole in the garden 🤣 we've never seen so many people down our road haha
Out of curiosity....ok you buy a cheap house. What do you plan on doing for a living? Remote work?
If you want to know what our future plans are, check out our other Q&A videos. They could answer better than me commenting here 🙂 Short answer is, we came here to escape the system. If we can work for a few days remotely or physically to pay our living expenses for a long period of time we will, but we hope to not have to rely on employment full time
@@MarkandAnisha I wonder what kind of a system that may be? Since technically the "system" is here as well....al be it not as strong.
Not sure if I will go through the Q&A, since this video got recommended by youtube out of the blue.
In any case happy to have you here. Much better to have a white Europeans filling those empty houses than the Canaanites.
Hi there beautiful people! thanks for sharing your experience. It is tremendously interesting. I have a personal question, on worries if you'd rather not reply: I am looking to move to Bulgaria, I have kids. Do you intend to have some yourselves? the reason I am asking is if you do, you probably wouldn't have chosen this country if having children is a struggle. TIA and HNY!
Hi! It's funny that you ask that at this point in time because we're currently in awe of our 3 week old newborn 🥰 We did run into a lot of challenges in Bulgaria throughout the pregnancy, so we returned to the UK to have the child ☺️
@@MarkandAnisha I just saw that in another video of yours. I can honestly say that I am profoundly happy for you. I wish it brings you the same bliss it brought me. Not to say it's always great, obviously, there are hard times, but the positive is marvelous. So yeah, congratulations, enjoy yourselves!
Are you planning to go back to Bulgaria? the answer to this question is probably on your channel, I'll go check it out.
Take care
Should I talk to a lawer or speak to the Bulgarian Health Department?
Could be better getting an opinion of a healthcare professional, wouldn't be necessarily a lawyer if I'm honest. There's plenty of Facebook expat groups where these types of questions are asked, but from experience I would personally go in and ask with a translator
There are jobs, especially for people with degree. There are probably less remote jobs than in UK at the moment but start shouldn't stop you from applying.
Although working remotely would be great, we aim to mainly work on the odd occasion where and when needed, and be our own boss going forward 👍🙂
My comment was more general, because I can't agree with your advice that people shouldn't come to Bulgaria looking for a job and that Bulgarians leave because there are no jobs.
@@shtiplieva Ah, okay, I understand that interpretation now 👍
In what town do you live?
We love in the Strahitza municipality region of Veliko Tarnavo 🙂
@@MarkandAnisha I am in the process of gaining a retirement visa and moving (retiring) to Veliko Tarnovo from the US next year. Marvelous.
I came to Bulgaria at almost the exact time as you after working in Germany for 35 years, there was no way I wanted to return to the UK. So, I’ve a lovely little cottage here with an enormous plot of land that I really don’t know what to do with. I certainly don’t want to grow veggies as there’s a serious problem with water during the summer months and it’s a lot of work and I prefer to be on my little sail boat in Greece. So, no animal or veggie responsibility.
Second point to mention, there are many Brits who succumb to the booze problem here a) because it’s cheap and b) there’s very often not so much to do.
Third point, there is work especially in construction servicing the many Brits over here. But, it really is necessary, if possible, to have some sort of UK income.
Personally, I very much like living here and very often the services are very good. Recently, I had to have serious medical treatment and the hospital………Ruse, medico, was excellent.
So, one can have a nice style of living here and really enjoy the location of Bulgaria being in Europe. If you’re not into doing things for yourself then maybe it’s not for you.
The advantages of living here for me are the peace, the often very good services from food to medecine and the fantastic value for money like council tax costing about 20 pounds for the year and the bins are emptied every week. One can go on and on for and sometimes against living here but at the end of the day each person must keep their feet on the ground and think carefully.
Really enjoyed it, great content, you mentioned crypto currency do you day trade it to make a living?
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! Tbh, I used to day trade in my spare time whilst working the 9-5 but I soon learned that just investing in solid projects, trustworthy developers and Holding the coins for longer proved more beneficial. It's about the time IN the Markets, not trying to TIME the Market 🙂
It also allows us to make money with just an internet connection 😉 but it's been one hell of a ride in the current bear market haha
@@MarkandAnisha feel you mate gone through the same, first bear market what a ride! My wife is from Bulgaria, we are loving the content. We plan on doing a similar journey to you in the next few years near her hometown Razgrad.
Will be following your journey, wish you both the best!
When you say: If you are looking for work Bulgaria is not the place, all the Bulgarians are moving out is not quite accurate. You can find work in Bulgaria. The problem is that it is not well paid and you can't make a decent living.
You're quite right there and thanks for correcting us so others can understand more clearly.
That's just not true. Currently in Bulgaria you can earn a better net salary as an engineer than in the UK.
I used 4000 pounds worth of Bitcoin profits to get ours. I am also hoping it rises as are you...
We have a very old place near close to (10 mins) Tryavna a tourist town, it is a stunning Dickensian town, all oldy worldy.
This is great for me because I can always get a cappuccino of standing when I pop down...
Have a look one day....
Would love to meet up this summer as our ideas are very much aligned...
Well done to you both...
Wow awesome! We'll definitely check it out when we get chance! Sounds really quaint.
Was it a one of investment for you or do you do jt regular? We're yet to find other like minded individuals (apart from yourself) who has used crypto currency to give them more financial opportunities in Bulgaria
Thanks again 🤗
Regarding Bitcoin I'm interested in it on ideology grounds and what it stands for, I'm more interested in the P2P element of it as in when millions more have wallets and trust it I can pay individuals for this that and the other, even labour removing the need for 3rd parties
When buying in BG Bitcoins price rose so I was able to cash some out.
But our house was 20,000 Lev when bought so we got ripped off compared to you ha ha...
I'm also very interested in cadarno as it's helping the unbanked...
I'm sure we could chat about it until the cows come home, which they do in BG...
Cheers
Sounds like we've got very similar opinions on it then! Decentralised is definitely the way forward, we did own some bitcoin, but like yourself we cashed that out when it rose, that helped pay for the extension and appliances so it did us well.
Haha I like that, yeah very easily could, if you fancy it, add us on Facebook or Instagram and we can finish this conversation another day over a drink 🙂
Do you eat badger in Bulgaria
Never heard of that, do you eat badger in your country?
Here in Uzbekistan we fry them in garlic butter, I know you are really poor family like us, please eat them during the winter, please brother if life gets hard hunt the badger it will keep you going also the milk from the tit of donkey makes the tavkat cheese
No one in Bulgaria eat badgers mate. Why would you think people eat badgers there?
@marcusdamarcus837 the testes of the badger is rare delicacy in Uzbekistan
Three and a half thousand pounds is amazing!
Obviously, at first glance, amazing price but we still need to invest more to make it into our dream home and like we mentioned it did take a lot of upfront costs to get it habitable and functional 🙂
Money for 3 months rent en UK
Depending on where you are but I get your point 👉
Just watched and found your vids. . I am also involved in crypto since 2017. .. lets hope the bull run comes in 24 as is expected. 😊
Best of luck to you 🤞🍀 should be a good one for sure 😁
Where abouts are guys based
Strahitza region, 45mins from VT 🙂
Really happy that you felt the freedom in Bulgaria.
Unfortunately when you realise how corrupted is the society on all levels it might be a bit late.
You can pay to the traffic police if you are speeding, you can pay if you drink and drive, you must pay for the doctor or you die, when your camera or laptop dissappear miraculously and you see it in your neighbours hands you will realise a lot of things for the Bulgarian mindset. One of the million reasons for us to move in UK...Corruption
Of the mind, of the state and the whole society. When it becomes normal it is not normal. When you have your first child you will realise and experience just a slight bit of it.
For the weather and the food you are absolutely right- it's the best!
Completely understand what you're saying, we can't speak from experience because we have yet to be a victim of the 'corruption' but our view on this, is that corruption is everywhere, even the UK. The only difference is that it isn't in the public eye, it's a hidden hand instead. So in that perspective, I would rather be here and be able to witness it and potentially avoid it, than be victim to it without even knowing.
Thanks for taking the time to comment 🙂
@The Sharkstead you will not be able to avoid it, it will be part of your life there.
Знаете ли, повечето хора опитват да покажат добрата страна на това, което имат. От 10 години съм шофьор и нито веднъж не са ми искали пари. Всъщност в малките градове и села, всички се познават толкова добре, че понякога дори си затварят очите за нарушения.
Много се радвам, че сте намерили своето спокойствие и сигурност в Англия, но много повече хора обичаме и оценяваме мястото, на което живеем. Аз не познавам нито един чужденец, който да е дошъл тук и да не е оценил свободата, която има.
Освен това е изключително грозно това, което казвате за лекарите. Има ужасно много и то добри лекари, които спасяват животи. Всъщност убедена съм, че в Англия плащате много повече за лечение, отколкото сте плащали тук. Наистина се надявам да ви е добре там и да намерите позитивното в себе си. В противен случай най - вероятно, след време ще имате същия проблем и с новото място, на което живеете.
Don't use the word cheap. It is kind of offensive. Say affordable or well priced.
And yes, you can find work in the big cities. But obviously you are not looking for a city life rather than living in a rural location.
Obviously we didn't intend for any offense, and from what you said I don't think you were personally offended but just giving us the heads up? Thanks 😊 we will be more careful next time
You will finally discover the eastern socialist attitude of equality, inclusion, and easygoing life, on the contrary to the western exhausting collapsing neocon capitalism. Now you see how brainwashed you have been about the Eastern Europe! All best in Bulgaria!
Thank you Gordon, wise words friend ☺️
