Experience in Sofia, Bulgaria by Anett

What is it like to live in Sofia? Would you recommend it? What is the city like?

Sofia is the capital of Bulgaria. To live in that city is very unpredictable. You can find what you looking for... I mean if you looking for a place to sit and read - we have so many parks for that, if you looking for a place to relax - tiny bars with good music, yes we have that too. Sofia is a city of different emotions and moods. I really like that.
