Yes, right! I ran away in the mountains but it is higher than 30°C. Happy to hear that you are here, hope you like it!
Its very interesting. I am here on work
I've been all over West EU, and to PL, CZ, Croatia... other Slav countries are quite weird. But Bulgarians are very normal. So much, that I wonder if they are really Slavs ! Even your Romanian neighbours are real weirdos...
West EU is uptight e.g Germany or a cartoon stereotype, e.g Italy. Central EU are weirdos. Bulgarians seems to be sanest and most normal people in Europe. Very chill people
And also, I hear a lot of Sofia Bulgarians trying to speak American style English... Romanians, Poles, Czechs prefer UK
Thanks for that!
Don't watch the Romanians. Since the beginning of time they have tried to look like the westerners. Their language is even part of the roman group which is mostly western languages.
Now here is a quick Sofia guide:
Autobus No. 204 goes trough almost all of the important part of the city. If you want to go the western part of the city you use trolley No. 7. If you want to go to the northern part of the city you use metro line 3 (the green one)
If you need fast food you take a banica. A good place for banica is here (not exactly this shop but there is one next to it)
If banica is a thing that you don't like you take a düner. Even though it is Turkish food we love it and take it if banica isn't available around. The best places are here, here or the chain Mimas. If you aren't near any of those you watch if the chef is turkish. Most places with turkish chefs make them good.
Good restaurants in the centre are Cibo nel Camino and Bankovic
If you need a taxi you never take the ones that says OK! on them. A lot of them are fake and charge more than normal. The most trustworthy are Radio SV Taxi (with red letters it is written Радио СВ Такси) or Yellow taxi
If you need any help let me know. Enjoy the rakia and don't forget to get an ayran with your banica
