In this episode of the ZenBooking podcast, Retreat Tales, we hear from Elena Kemileva, the leader of an 8-day yoga, hiking, and spa retreat in Bulgaria.

Bulgaria is a small country rich in nature, with stunning mountains, beautiful seaside, and amazing food. The country has opened up to tourism since the breakdown of the Soviet Union and joining the European Union.

The retreat includes hiking in the mountains, visiting thermal springs, and practicing yoga both indoors and outdoors. The yoga classes are a mix of traditional Hatha yoga and vinyasa flow, suitable for all levels.

The retreat also offers a range of activities, comfortable accommodation with spa facilities, and healthy, organic meals.
