Posted: July 12, 2024Spent 4 days in Bulgaria, 2 in Sofia and 2 in Plovdiv. Stayed at a hostel as a solo female traveller Felt extremely safe in both places, no street harrassment or attempts at scamming. There are enough cool activities you can book on GYG. Highly recommend going to the Rila Monastery and definitely don’t stick to just Sofia, Plovdid is magnificent. The country is pretty inexpensive, just check prices before wandering in somewhere. Bulgarians are nice people, if you stop them for help they’ll try to help you even if they dont speak English well

Posted: December 21, 2023I went to Bulgaria last summer (Sofia for 3 nights) and it was so nice! I only paid for accommodation, they have free tours every day, I chose a few different ones! I think there was one about communism theme, one about food and drink, and one general! Also, I climbed a mountain there, which was also free and there was a guide! Overall it's a charming place and friendly people.

I am Mia from Germany, I study cultural education and am a theatre maker. I also studied music for a bit however I wouldn’t call myself a musician more an enthusiast. I love love love to dance. I enjoy cooking with others a lot, so maybe that is something to do together. After finishing University I would love to do international theatre projects and maybe move abroad some day, for now I’ve lived in Belgium and Croatia a bit. :) I will be taking my first solo-adventure interrailing through Europe this summer ☀️ I’m very excited and would love to meet some nice people on the way!
