Today I am back with THE History Fangirl, Stephanie Craig, a travel writer and an American expat/nomad based in Sofia.

In the last episode, we talked a lot about cultural Bulgaria and its history.

Today is a deep dive travel guide on everything you need to eat, drink, and do when traveling to Sofia, as well as day trips you can take.

You’ll discover:

* The best view in Sofia

* Where to hang out at night

* The best walking tour to go on

* The best cafe to get work done

* The beaches you should visit

* And more.

You’ll also get a real flavor of what it’s like to live in Bulgaria, and learn about:

* How the pandemic is affecting Stephanie and her expat family; 

* What it’s like to give birth in a country that’s not your own and how much it costs;

* Bulgarian bureaucracy; 

* And a culture tip that you need to know to avoid awkward situations with the locals.

You will definitely hear a baby in this episode and one f-bomb that I had to leave in because it was just too funny.

Enjoy the episode

The cheerful musical interlude in this episode is called Calimba by artist E’s Jammy Jams.
