Bulgarian wonders of nature - part2

Hello sweet readers!

How are you? What are you doing this weekend? Me I'm staying at home for now,  I'm a little sick and I want to get in shape for next week-end because I'm going to Paris!

But for now as promised, I'm telling you the second part of my last week-end.

So this post is mostly dedicated to the region of Veliko Tarnovo.

Veliko Tarnovo is the ancient capital of Bulgaria (before Sofia), it is situated is the middle of the country. It has a charm no other city in the country has. If you stay in Bulgaria for more than a week, you must visit it!

We had lunch in a super restaurant called Shtastliveca with a incredible view as you can see in the photos, I deeply recommend it but you must have a reservation!

In this region,

- We went to a monastery, Preobrajenski (transfiguration), very interesting for its colorful paintings, its view and the 'circle of life painting'...

- Then we went to the Hotnishki waterfalls, very cool place especially if you like climbing ;)

To finish, on our way back to Sofia, less than 100km in the region of Yablanitsa, we went the Glojenski monastery, dating 1224, it is very spectacular, on the verge of the terrifying... Perched in the middle of the mountain, we reach it by a single-lane road, we had the impression to be in a movie...

Hope you'll like my post and wish you all a perfect week-end!

Bulgarian wonders of nature - trip part1

Hello dear readers!

How are you? 

It's really hot in here these days (in Bulgaria I mean) and I decided to visit my beautiful native country this weekend! So there will be two parts (posts) of this trip WE!

This one is dedicated to the region of Yablanitsa and Lovetch (less than 2hours by car from Sofia): if you like caves, there are some very interesting in that region: the following pictures are taken in Prohodna cave also known as the eyes of god, Devetashka cave which you might recognise from the film the Expendables and the Krushuna waterfalls (the biggest waterfalls in Bulgaria) ! It is a perfect one day trip programme and not difficult for non sporty people.

There is an other cave in the region Saeva Dupka which I visited 3years ago, very different from these, but also very interesting! 

We ate after all this adventure in the village of Letnica where is situated the Krushuna waterfalls, in a small garden restaurant called Slunchevata kushta (The sunny house) delicious traditional bulgarian food and good value for money!  

I wish you a wonderful week, full of ideas of journeys, personnaly, I'm already thinking of my next Bulgarian trip!

Hello Sweet readers!

How are you?  I hope you had all a well spent week-end! :)

Mine was pretty cool: I went to Koprivtchitsa on Saturday, a beautiful village with authentic colorful houses from the Bulgarian Renaissance period (You can check pictures in my facebook page) and on Sunday, I had a walk in the center of Sofia and I also "opened" the icecream season from my favorite "100 grama sladki" shop situated on Shishman street.

It was the occasion to wear my brand new little yellow dress from Zara. I bought it for less than 25euros, what do you think?

Have a very nice shining week sweeties!
