It's a small town, there are people everywhere and literally nothing can happen. I've never heard of someone getting mugged, robbed, sa'ed. Yeah, its possible that someone on the street can stop you and tell you you're beautiful, but he's never going to do nothing more, maybe ask about your social's. Overall its safe.

Overall it's okay! As a small town it's safer then the capital. As an LGBTQ+ person or a women is not safe for night walks. No night public transport but during the day there is always a person for the tickets so you won't be alone. Also for people with physical disabilities it can be difficult.

About me

I’m Eli, an enthusiast exploring the world and its own boundaries. I'm from Bulgaria and travel on a very low budget. Stopping here and there to work a bit, so I can continue my journey. Learning on the go and experimenting. I worked as a graphic designer, prepress specialist and a photographer for about 20 years. Now I am as well an experienced certificated masseuse and a housekeeper (cleaning is the easiest job to find on the short term on the way). Sure I also had a “normal life” once, but at some point I started feeling I needed a huge change. So the answer found me the most unexpected way (I might tell you the story if we meet)! Also at the edge of 42 I got on a motorbike for the first time in my life and started my motorcycle lessons – that was real fun!! Yet I gave up the dream to travel this way due to different reasons.
