Tampons - An Inventive Bulgarian Alternative

Written by slivatree on
I know smoking is bad for you but here in Bulgaria it is considered normal to smoke and unusual not to. This will change as the EU grips Bulgaria by the throat and forces the people there not to smoke by raising the cost of cigarettes tenfold. The cost of cigarettes has double in the last couple of years and is due to increase by another 43% in the New Year, so Bulgarians being Bulgarians find a practical way of dealing with this. The answer they have now is to roll their own cigarettes, which works out at around half the cost of factory ... Read Full Story

Living With Pigs Safer Than Living With Humans

Written by slivatree on
Back on the Pig Flu topic again. Living in Yambol myself this is a worry. 2 million could be infected in Bulgaria over the coming months is some serious virus. The safest people are in the villages, perhaps we should give up our jobs spend this winter in the village full time until it is all over. Ironically we will be living with more pigs than people and safer of course! The rising number of people infected with the A/H1N1 flu has prompted authorities in a southeast Bulgarian district to declare an epidemic, local media reported Monday. The sick rate in the region has ... Read Full Story

Funny, but when IU first moved over here Estate Agents told me that earthquakes only occur in the mountain regions of Bulgaria and the Thracian Plain doesn’t not have any problems with earthquakes. Well it seem that the mountains have no problems but the Thracian Plains are inundated with quakes recently. Would I have moved to another area if I were told the truth? Actually no, earthquakes are part and parcel of life here, no insurance, just rebuild your buildings when it strikes and that is what I have done recently! Bloody Estate Agents ... Read Full Story

Under Age Sex In Bulgaria - Normal With Gypsies

Written by slivatree on
There was no mention here whether this was a Bulgarian or Bulgarian Gypsy child. Getting married at 11 years old must surely indicate that this was a Gypsy girl. Will anything be done as this is a Gypsy issue? I doubt it, underage sex, marriage and other underage issues is part of their alien culture in Bulgaria. An 11-year-old girl gave birth to a healthy baby girl in the southeast Bulgarian city of Sliven Thursday night. The news has been confirmed by the head of the maternity ward in the Sliven Hospital, Dr. Sonya Mihaylova, who also said the youngest mothers the ward had ... Read Full Story

Written by slivatree on
Cases of classic misunderstandings Bulgarians has caused all sorts of problems over the years and it still happens. There was one prime classic misunderstanding that wasn't realised until this week and reminded me that these misunderstandings will probably never end here in Bulgaria. Just to give some background here, the previous owners of Skalitsa farmhouse and smallholding off where an elderly couple called Marina and Mitko. They moved in with their son to the town of Stara Zagora . Marina couldn’t wait for town life, but Mitko didn’t want to move, he loved village life and was in tears when we signed the contract. ...
