im half greek half bulgarian and i enjoy to watch your clips.I wish you happiness and good luck in your new live! No too much rules and real freedom .Good luck!👍🤞👍
Благодаря ти много приятел ☺️💕🇧🇬🙏
Every time I see a new video notification on Instagram I can't wait to come to UA-cam to watch it. Greetings from Bulgaria!
Aw this makes us feel so happy. Thank you, friend ☺️🙏
Take the kids to nearby Etara Ethnographic Complex and the town of Elena which are all quite close. Can't decide which season is the most beautiful, but autumn is so colourful. Thank you so much for learning Bulgarian 🤗
Благодаря ти много ❤️ Yes, Elena is on the list!
Greetings from Romania!🐎👍🐎
Здрасти from Bulgaria ❤️❤️🇧🇬 We love Romania! 😊💗
Здравейте, семейство! Добре дошли в България! Желая Ви щастлив живот и незабравими моменти тук! P.S. I noticed on the white board written the word “today” ( днес) . Please be more careful when writing capital “Д”, because it looks like “A”. The horizontal line of “Д” should be completely down on the “imaginary” line and a little bit longer on both ends, with the two little “legs” on both sides below it.😊😊😊
I find the 'D' and 'Zh' difficult, but I'll keep practicing! Благодаря ти много 🥹💕🙏
@@the_phoenixprojectoh, don’t worry about the “Ж”. Everyone writes it their own way, but I prefer to stick to the basics, as you can see it is just a cross with a vertical line in the middle.😂😂😊
@@georgibraykov3715 I will keep practicing! 😆❤️🇧🇬🙏
Another fun-filled video. Thank you for taking us through daily life along with some of the touristy sights (and awesome food! Your potatoes and gravy have me craving some now!) The girls are growing so fast and so are the cute pups. Love that you both are so compassionate with the animals there. Both you and your hubby are terrific parents, and very capable. Great partnership. There are so many wonderful, solid properties throughout Bulgaria, and you're showing how they can be transformed with a little TLC into a real home. Lovely.
Thank you for such a wonderful comment. We work very hard for our children and animals, so it's appreciated 😊💗🙏🙏🙏
So happy to see people learning my language! Keep doing it, it is the best way to get to know better your neighbours and create new friendships.
Note - Econt does actually do door-to-door deliveries, you can request a visit for pick up, but your town might be visited by a courier just 3 days a week.
Also, keep in mind Bulgarians are always willing to help their neighbours, when you need a hand for something heavy do not hesitate to check with some of them
Здрасти! Благодаря ти много ❤️ 🙏 Yes, our neighbour said "if you have a problem, come see me". Thank you for the advice! 😊💕
Another great video! Tbh you all look happier in every new video! Hope everything works out for your family 🖤
About the registration if you past “customs” ugh I had nightmare with that, the registration is easy. I paid 300 or 350 leva to a company that do this (it happen in Varna) as you won’t need to keep queuing for hours and hours as KAT often have 15 min breaks (it’s disgusting really) so the 300/350 leva was worthy as meanwhile I did some shopping in the city xd
Also just to mention keep checking the discounts in the supermarkets and do a “club cart” as it save a lot. There was discount on juice , milk, American cheese and many more last week, also if you have Lidl near by try it - I think it bit cheaper than Kaufland (and I had problem with a fhdjsnsjsn toothbrush with Kaufland and not much help by the customer service)
Greetings from the seaside 🖤🇧🇬🏴🖤
Здравейте приятели😊❤🎉
Здрасти приятел 😊❤️
😄👍👍браво, супер ❤
Can't wait to visit you all❤ (and my favourite cafe)
The food was EVEN better this time! We can't wait either 😊💗💗💗
Make sure you know where the chassis number is when you take the jeep to the Kat office .
When you import the van you will need the chassis number and that the number of seats matches the v5 . You will have import duty to pay based on a Bulgariaian valuation then you will have to go to the Kat office for new documents and registration. It cost me 2000lv to import my 2005 ford ranger . Good luck .
Thank you so much for the advice. We know it will cost around 2000 leva or thereabouts. Here's hoping it goes well 😅
tariffs ?@@the_phoenixproject
yeah, non EU imports
Great vlog would be good if you go into detail transferring your van to bulgaria plates this is something I will need to do for a 7.5t overland truck once I move there
We are doing it this month, so we will do a separate video on the process!
One of the big things I have missed since moving to Bulgaria is Indian "English Indian" food! The excitment in your face from the idea of it makes me laugh! If you have a metro near you then you can sometimes get some sauces.
Nooooo we want REAL Indian food! We've had Indian cuisine when travelling through Malaysia and I often cook curry at home, but nothing beats food by a native! Hopefully we can vlog a little bit to show you how amazing it will be!
Haha😂 very funny at the end 😂
Don't encourage him 😂 Clearly I'd been alone with the kids for a few too many days last week! 😆🙈
Your children will be fluent in Bulgarian before you, they won't even realize it.👍
They are picking it up so quickly!
Hehehe, for a moment I thought Ant drilled into a wire.😂
No, thankfully not 😆🙈
He's full of it lol. 😂❤
Yes, he does think he is funny 😆🙈
Hello .
I just start watching your videos and I am curious which village you choose for living in Bulgaria?
Good luck with everything and I hope you will enjoy living there.
Здраве! We don't want to say which village because we are worried we will get lots of unwanted visitors 😅 We have two small children so, for security purposes, we won't say. But we are near Popovo and Strazitsa. Thank you for your lovely comment ☺️💕
@@the_phoenixproject I was just asking because it's interesting for me how far are you from the big city and what is good for you to travel.
I am living in Plymouth from 10 years,but after couple of years probably I will come back home.
All the best guys:)
I think Gin gig is a large Tom
Yes probably 😆
Вече говорите български без акцент 😀
🥹💗 благодаря ти много приятел 🙏❤️
Be careful with driving license after 6 months you need to exchange otherwise you will get a ticket
Yes, it will get sorted when we get residency this week. We've only been here 3 months.
The house needs some serious renovation. Plastering, insulation, new windows and doors, etc. No wonder that you bought it so cheap. I'm finishing a 60 square meter apartment and I have spent 40000 euros.
Yes, well, it is expensive if you pay someone to do it all. We are doing everything ourselves (as we did with our UK home). We spent less than £10,000 renovating an English house. We know how to do low-cost renovations to a high standard so that we don't lose money.
@the_phoenixproject I don't have the time to do it myself and I paid a construction company. The construction companies are not playing around with the prices. In Bulgaria, a construction worker is making more than a physician...
@@pavlinpetkov8984 I can imagine! I'm lucky I have a handy husband! 😆
what? you cant buy gravy in Bulgaria?
Probably but I've not seen it anywhere. Plus, we are vegan (Ant and the girls are dairy intolerant) so it's hard to find things that don't have dairy or meat in them. I enjoy making my own anyway and it's dead easy! And tasty 😋
@@the_phoenixproject Oh I get you, I can make my own too, but that is just another thing to add to the small "cons" list haha!
@@jamesbond4981 you can't beat a bit of Bisto 😆 But I'm glad I can make my own and cook! I don't know how people survive out here without knowing how to cook things!
@@the_phoenixproject my mum was either lazy or a genius, I could cook a wide range of dishes from 11 years old pasta, Sheppard's pie, stir fry, chicken dinner, yorkshire pudding, rhubarb crumble I knew how to do it. Come to think of it she wasn't lazy, she actually taught me life skills. I'm nearly 40 now and never been in a relationship where my other half could cook a microwave meal. Maybe that's why I'm single 🤣🤣🤣
@@jamesbond4981 cooking is a great skill. My Mum could burn soup! I learned from school and the internet thankfully 😂
