 Without Sugar or Extra Sugar? by johngayton Bulgarians are great coffee lovers and as well as the cafes and restaurants there are also dozens of these coffee machines dotted around the city. These outdoor machines actually dispense a perfectly good cup of coffee if you stick to the espresso. At 40 stotinki for a cup, which you can then sit at one of the many public benches to enjoy, these certainly do provide a budget option and if you add a slice of pizza from the take away place you have a perfectly good lunch for about 1.50 Leva!

...you'll have ample opportunity to check it here in Varna. Most of Varna's city centre is pedestrianised and on every street you will come across an elderly person with a weighing scale who will weigh you for a few stotinki and maybe have a few bits of bric-a-brac for sale too. These people seem to be perfectly harmless, just trying to make a few Leva to supplement their (if any) meagre pensions and there is no con involved. Leave a Comment

Pretty much everything in Varna is written in Cyrillic, particularly in the beach bars and cafes. There's not much concession for tourists who aren't familiar with this scary looking alphabet. Here's a brief guide - è - a backwards N is an 'I' ù - is 'Sh' ñ - is 'S' ä - is 'D' ç - is 'Z' ö - is 'ts' æ - is 'Zh' ã - is 'G' í - is 'N' â - is 'V' ÷ - is 'Ch' á - is 'B' ô - is 'F' õ - is 'H' ï - is 'P' ð - is 'R' ë - is 'L' There's a bunch more, but these are the basics. It's best to go with the basics first, but the most confusing part of cyrillic are the characters that look like Latin, but in fact do something different. Hope it helps! Leave a Comment

by Axel-M Pobitite Kamuni, 18 km away from Varna, This locality is a geological miracle with out parallel in the world. The stones are so huge that the fossil forests in Argentina and India pale in comparison. Seven groups are scattered in a circle with a radius of 3 km. The Dikilitash Group comprising 300 big and small Scientists have been arguing over the origin of these works of nature for man)- gears. We simply gaze and rake pictures. The scene is magnificent when the miraculous forest is looked at against the backdrop of the setting sun. Moonlight makes the picture even more exciting. Leave a Comment
