Serbia, Bulgaria: EU Race

Brooke, “a temporary Serb” and author of Desperate Serbwife believes that Bulgaria is “boring” and “certainly not ready for the EU”: “At least you feel like you're in Europe when you're in Belgrade, even if things are still creaking their way out of the decade of conflict. It's simply not fair that each and every Serb is still being punished by the EU because of Milosevic (I mean, they overthrew the guy, shouldn't that count for something?) – and it is a real shame that a developing country like Bulgaria is considered more EU-worthy than Serbia.”

    Brooke obviously did not spend enough time in Bulgaria. The country has amazing nature, beautiful countryside and very hospitable people. The big cities are a bit run down as a result of the fall of communism – but even that is fast changing. My guess is that in 2 years Bulgaria will be substantially more advanced than Serbia.

  • Hm, it’s quite interesting to follow the link from where this post feeds itself. Do it for yourself and you’ll definitely feel the lack of information of the author about Bulgaria. He has been mostly in Sofia, which is the capital of Bulgaria and I believe that everyone has to admit – most of the capitals of our world are over-crowded, “over-trafficked”, dirty and etc. So and Sofia is like that, but what is worth to be seen is the rest of the country – Plovdiv – one of the ancients cities in Europe, Varna, Veliko Turnovo, Ruse, Sozopol, Nesebar and many more . You must see for yourself and believe to your eyes. Not surprisingly lots of Britons are buying bulgarian properties and are willing to settle their homes in Bulgaria. Once again come and see it for yourself. Peace everyone!
