I am so sorry that you had to deal with our local Peasants 🤣 Embarrassing😢
Awww how cool, you found my little hometown! I’m so glad you liked it. We also visited this summer. Greetings from California.
shared your video/channel with friends of mine in the US who are thinking of moving to be nomad/slomads with their kids too
The city is not ugly at all there is very classy american univercity with very beautiful student town and campus ,bulgaria elite study there ,and about the comunist blocks,it is not our fault that the red army 6 million ( bigger than the population of bulgaria at that time)people occupied us killed our king and forcefully install their puppet government, this is slavery it was no consencual,while before 1944 our countrry was piece of art build from scratch after we got liberated from turkish occupation in 1878 and we demolished all of the old buildings,for example in sofia only one mosque remain from this period,also our jewel capital sofia was almost totally destroyed by british american bombings without bulgaria fire a shot against them or the russians,even up to the end of the war we kept our diplomatic relations with thr ussr...now we struggle to pick ul the pieces and it is hard cause foreign power interfere in our internal affairs and put people who are obidient to them ,so for restoration of a beautiful house it is not needed very big ammount of money but they just dont do it ,partially to left the buildings to be conquered by nature and to take the land cause most of the old beautiful architecture is downtown and the sqare meter there is 5000-6000 euros,so they build hotels and houses and make a loooooot of cash,but god sees it all
Lovely!! Thanks so much for sharing with us!
Thank you for watching!
Nice seeing you’ll on TH-cam documenting your journey! 🎉
Thanks! Are you doing yours yet?
@@slowtravelblog no... too lazy for it... but I do youtube tutorials and educational stuff :-)
there is a legend that the girl was the only one of all the men who was the bravest and made a bet that she could go to that cave at night, the proof that she was there would be a piece of wood that she would nailed it into the ground, since it was night she accidentally nailed it to her dress, thinking that something is holding her in the cave when she felt. That something is holding her she died of heart attack
Is that why it's called Maiden's Cave?
@@slowtravelblog yes thats the reason
Bravo ! Felicitari! (un vampir din Brasov Transilvania Romania ❤😂)
What? That's not a "carbonara" pasta😅, comm'on you people...🙄🤦🏻♀️ google the proper recepie of "pasta alla carbonara" 😏
@@briseldaxhelo3124 It is a proper carbonara made with egg and parmesan. I just also like some veg.
It is just a hill not a pyramid... do your research...
@@Hyperownage We were researching, that's the whole video.
the mountain LOOKS LIKE…
" I don't know, I don't speak rock." Best comment ever!
@@shelleykerbrat67 I was expecting a whole backstory 😆
You could come to Oradea, has green places too.
Looks beautiful! We are definitely planning on going there in the future!
Μακεδονια is only greece.. but skopje is a nice place too
Hi, from a Bosnian-Canadian. I can't believe you had sushi in Sarajevo(I didn't even know there was sushi place in Bosnian) next time please get cevapi. I hope that rest of your trip goes better. Where are you going next?
The sushi was really good tbh. Definitely Trying lots of actual Bosnian food during our stay here. We headed to Visoko next.
Thank you for promoting Macedonian 🇲🇰 food and culture . Greetings from Macedonia 🇲🇰
Greetings! We had a great time and will be back in the future.
Greetings from Bitola! The guy on 10:30 was singing something about a sad love story, which is a song from a Bosnian singer. th-cam.com/video/xSNA3lwbZp8/w-d-xo.html . Also the line of people that you spotted in front of the building across, it was people waiting for new documents with the new "formal" name of our country. It was very late made public to the masses that we will need to change our IDs/Passports/DL and so on, so there was a line in front of that building for like 8-9 months. The situation with the stores is bizarre for non-citizens because nothing works on Sundays(Easter Sunday), Easter Monday is also a public holiday. On Wednesday was the election day, so almost everyone in the country got a day off. In addition to those non-working days, majority of the people, took the Tuesday off so they can enjoy a holiday of 5-6 days without spending too much days of their annual leave. Hope you had a great time!
Thank you so much for sharing all of that. Whatched the video, what a beautiful song! Now the lineup makes a lot of sense. Also, must be a big pain to do all of that. We definitely should have found out before hand if there were any holidays and also how Macedonians celebrate their holidays. Now we know for next time! Have a great day!
I love your channel!
Thank you!
Macedonia is a good country
Agreed!

Love to you from Canada to Macedonia Greece <3
Invite to visit cox's bazar the longest beach in the world.
Looks so cool! Put it on our list, one day!
keep it up. Love from Bangladesh.
Thank you!
Thats archeological site not ruins.The excavation is still in process.Word greek is not mention in any artefact,never existed before 19 th and 20 th British colonials. Greeks are mixture of peiple a hybrid made by the colonials in 20 the cent, Masters 5% and workers from northern africa and middle east 95%. Dimotiki language is invented by german scholars in 19 th cent.nonsuch thung as greeks or greek language exists till very this day. Macedonia is eternal.All artefacts say Macedonian Macedonians and Macedonia nithing else.No matter where you go on the Macedonian peninsula all the ancuent sights are Macedonian.
Thank you for the insights. And thank you for watching!
Lovely video! Just a tip if you come again- There is also a plane and buses from Sofia to Burgas. Even the buses have air cons and take the journey for around 4 hours. Bulgarians also avoid their trains as much as possible. They are nowhere near as these in Central and Western Europe. 😅
Thank you for the tip. We have taken a plane before, but wanted to save some money this time. Our daughter has a hard time with a bus ride 2 hours or more. Maybe next time we can take a bus to Plovdiv, Stara Zagora and then on to Burgas.
This was a great video. Very entertaining! Five stars. Best Western ❤
Thanks for sharing , I was there 12 years ago , it's a beautiful Country , The Macedonian people are very nice , Ohrid is a really nice place too . I noticed greek trolls on every Macedonian video clips , just goes to show what kind of people they are . I hope you enjoy your stay ,
Such a beautiful country and people. It is sad to see the animosity between the people in the region.
@@slowtravelblog καλησπέρα από την όμορφη ΘΕΣΣΑΛΟΝΙΚΗ..... Αυτη η χώρα λέγεται Βαρντασκα και είναι επαρχία της Σερβίας.... Οι κάτοικοι της είναι Σλάβοι και μιλούν και γράφουν σλαβικα.... Έχουν κλέψει την Ιστορία της ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΊΑΣ και λένε ότι είναι ΜΑΚΕΔΟΝΕΣ
great video but please correct the title.Its North Macedonia (Vardarska Banovina). Macedonia is in Greece. Hope you visit Thessaloniki,Vergina,Pella and Alexanders birtplace Aegae.
Thank you for the tip. We have been to Thessaloniki, would like to explore more of the area in the future.
@@slowtravelblog avoid the city center. There is nothing really to see except the White tower and the sea. Try Kastra (old town) and the spot around the opera house.
They already went to Thessaloniki , that was called Solun . They didn't like it , pick pocket crime . If you watched ther clips . Typical Greek . Are you a Anatolian Christian turk settler into Southern Macedonia or just a greek troll , that doesn't have a life .
@@dead3nd999..... enjoy. BITOLA --- 25 CENTURIES MACEDONIAN TOWN ! ! !
It's Macedonia the whole peninsula.The present hybrids fabricated colonies never existed before. It's Solun City and it's Macedonian.Dont avoid anything, everything is special. By the way hybrid your history is in Africa not on Macedonian peninsula.
The most beautiful city in Macedonia! We love our beautiful people in Bitola, they’re so kind and positive people. I love their energy and i always feel so loved and appreciated by them. I love Macedonian culture it’s so unique, i never felt such a wonderful vibes in other countries like in Macedonia. The food is amazing , they have so much traditional dishes and everything is perfectly made. The most attractive people are Macedonians, especially womens they’re always looking so gorgeous. I appreciate that they are very hardworking people and always positive with big hearts! I’m sure that you have been able to feel the same way i felt when I was there. Have a great time in the best country! Greetings from Switzerland.
Greetings! Macedonia is indeed a beautiful country with beautiful people! We have now visited the country a couple of times and I am sure we will be back in the future.
Well done very good filming
Thank you!
Magical!!!
Karadjordje schnitzel not steak
Thank you for the clarification.🙏
Bro she tried very hard to pronounce it right .
In the city nothing people, like a dead city.
More people in the city than we thought looking from the highway. Reminds me of some cities in our home country.
Nice Greek food !!yami yami
So delicious!!
Macedonian food , the word Greek never existed before 1821 , did it yunan . Stop looking over the fence and help ypur homeless Greeks , Macedonia doesn't have homeless .
Greeks have Turkish style food .
What Greek 🏳️🌈🇬🇷 food did you see here . She just tried Macedonian 🇲🇰 traditional food and one Serbian🇷🇸 . But not a single Greek food .
@@baits9301 greek dobt have own cuisine they use turkey food like greek
I love it! What a great adventure 🎉
Thank you! We always enjoy our drives through the Albanian countryside.
t That was a great video! The landscape of Albania is beautiful!
Thank you! Albania is just soo beautiful!
Nice video greetings from an Albanian Michigan. Where are you guys from your accent is American just wondering but it’s not important. Welcome to Albania ❤🇦🇱
Nice to meet you! We are Canadian, so very close. ♥
@@slowtravelblog yes indeed welcome to my country believe it or not I get lost in my home city Tirana born and raised so drastically is changed since from 1997 when I left. ❤️
My father lived there for several years in the 90s while teaching at the new American University. The city is pronounced "Blah-go-ehv-grad". He loved the people. He asked that we put on his headstone, "He spoke a little Bulgarian". He doesn't have a headstone, but the quote made it into his obituary. Hope that sufficed.
When we were there in the mid-nineties, Bulgaria was painfully struggling from the boot of communism. When we went to a restaurant, they would hand us a menu, but the answer to our orders everywhere we went was "Nyama" - there isn't any. Tripe soup was always available then though.
Pronunciation noted. We are always saying "малко български(Little Bulgarian)" when we are in Bulgaria lol The selection in the restaurants has improved a lot in the years since the 90's.
I don't know if you noticed but the groups from Eastern Bulgaria (mostly those that you said look like birds) are dressed in traditional female clothes in addition to the masks. These groups also have the "priests", the "bears", the wedding procession and the seeding and plowing rituals. Obviously, it's not real priests, it's for fun and a little bit of good natured mocking of the religious organization and everything else. Some groups have the policeman as a character, others a politician, etc. I always find so funny how the guys chose the biggest and burliest man to play the bride 😂
The more you watch and look the more small details you notice. And some of the details are quite funny lol
You can pay with a card directly on the turnstile. You don't need to buy tickets.
You are correct. But we have three people in our family and we couldn't pay with the same card for more than one person. Huge bummer.
it is indeed ugly lol but what's the point of going across the ocean to call a city "ugly"? if i ever visit detroit i won't say it's "america's ugliest city" but rather "the city of eminem" lol or something positive...
Blagoevgrad is actually everything but ugly. I love cities with a huge mass of concrete at the feet of massive mountains. :)
Well said. It has its charm especially in summer. It is one of the hottest places in Bulgaria especially nearby Sandanski with stunning mountains
Once we took the time to discover the place we really loved it! Very nice in the center and the people were very friendly. Our first time seeing it was from the highway on our way to Sandanski over a year ago and we only noticed the industrial areas and closed down factories.
Visit Milano ( Italy )-currently it looks like Afghanistan or maybe Marroco:)))) Berlin and Paris looks similar ha ha..
When we first drove by the city over a year ago, all we could see from the highway was the industrial area and closed down factories. Once we got into the center of the city it was much more alive.
We also spent 2 nights there on our way to Rila monastery. Being a University town and lots of young people I think made it so friendly. And also cats are everywhere and they don't understand English 😂
Yes, such a friendly town. They definitely don't get a lot of english speaking tourists there.
@@slowtravelblog yes very underated town. Great food options as well.
In Busteni ati filmat pe partea ce nu arata nimic, aici sunt cei mai inalti pereti din tara, Varful Caraiman si Crucea Eroilor.
We will have to visit those places next time we go!
Son Bienvenidos en Berat ❤Jeni te mirseardhur!🥰Nice video.
Thank you! We enjoyed your city very much!
I learned how to swim right here , we used to climb on those trees and jump , god how i mis this place . Thanx for the vid and i hope u enjoyed yourselfs in our paradise....
That is so cool! Very beautiful area. We love Albania ♥
@@slowtravelblog im glad u liked my country . I think that the whole world is beautiful , but we Albanians, we have two things that makes us special and unique. First , here , u are now at the beach and lets say u get bored , if u drive 40km u can find yourself at mauntain top at 2000m above the sea ....and 2-nd , ( i dont know if or how much possibillities did u had to interact with ppl ) we are propably the most hospitable ppl on earth , in 2nd world war we saved the lives of 3000 jews by hiding them in our houses even though if the germans founded out we got punished as well , ( and a lot of us got killed for doin so ) . And we saved even 20000 italian soldiers from the german nazis just becouse they were left here in our land our home , even though italians invaded us right before the germans . Can u imagine French ppl helping 20000 germans after what they did in France.... Anyway , i hope i didnt bored you , i said it all so that u know something about the ppl too...wish u the best . Respect
Great video guys, will check out Berat next time I am in Albania. Have like and subscribed all the best Ryan from the Uk 😀
Thank you! Berat was awesome!
Is the Weather warm in Tirana for Tshirt? And where did you changed your money?
Depends on who you ask. My husband is always wearing a t-shirt, so not very reliable lol. When we were there in mid November it reached a high in the low 20's Celsius / low 70's Fahrenheit. May till October is probably good for t-shirts for most people. As for changing money, we don't have other money to change over, so we use the ATMs.
@@slowtravelblog thank you so much for the answer :)
