- A BRIT LOST in BULGARIA
Join me was we meet the locals of Bulgaria and discover how well they speak English.
We walk around the suburbs of Varna, in Bulgaria, and ask the locals for directions.
In this video we see how friendly and helpful the locals are and snack on a local delicacy.
If you enjoy adventure videos from the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, then grab your vodka, some zakusky and join me as we meet the helpful and kind locals of Varna Bulgaria.

Dear Justin. I want just to say you are so intelligent and nice person. I hope you enjoy your time in Varna and one day we will see you again. I really appreciate your advice to the people to buy food and goods from the local shops so we can support them , that was really nice mate. Btw for your advice what is the best option for exploaring city's is get lost , that's true :D I lost my self in Florence ( Italy ) and that was one of the best experience which I had and meet a lot of nice people . I wish you all the best mate. You got new subscriber :))
С уважение ама какво толкова им се мазниш на тия ?
Скъп, пък не знам си какъв.
Да не би да не сере и той като всички други?
5 века под Османско робство заради хора като вас. Подмазвачи. Слагате им се на тия все едно са по-висши от нас Българите.
They come here to exploit. They don't do anything else. And if they can wipe a woman.
We love Varna and all of Bulgaria from Scotland! 🏴❤️🇧🇬
And I love Scotland ❤ one of the best people I've met.
Scottish are the best 👌
👍😃
Greetings from Edinburgh 👋
I am from Bulgaria 🇧🇬 and I love Scotland 🏴

Great content brother
bruuuuh I live in this area , never saw that place or the girl. Must be new
Thank you, my friend, for watching and commenting.👍😃
@@stavcho she said she lives in Bulgaria for about 7 years, brother 😁 And this "мекица" bakery is her husband's business, so i think you just not pay enough attention when you take a walk in your neighbourhood 😁 Оглеждаи са повече, брат 😁
@@NIIIKKOO where exactly is that place? Август искам да отида да хапна :)
@@ivetadimitrova6290 Somewhere in Varna, but не знамм точното място, I live in Благоевград 😁
I'm from Varna and I am deeply impressed by your video. You are showing life here the way we could never be able to see it. Your point of view is just priceless!
And last but not least... your multi language abilities are so impressive!
Good for you Sir!
I'm a fan now!
Thank you so much, i really appreciate the nice comment! 👍😃
@@J.E.Eto be fair, were you looking for directions or to detect how many Bulgarians can/not speak English? Coz if it was the first - then you should have asked them in another of your languages (French? Whatever else you speak) for the directions of the place you were going to. I usually do this. Always find someone to answer my question - wherever in the world I am. It is for sure better if you speak a few more languages.
@@loraontheroad , no, Justin had been sent to test the locals' opinion about the bloody Zio-Nazi war in Ukraine, the collective Rockeffelers commenced against the traitor of the NWO- Mr. Put'n..
Loving your positivity brother.
Love from Varna
Thank you, my friend, for watching and commenting.👍😃
Was great meeting you. Thank You.
Add the address to your shop please! :)
Мекици при Марго, right? I must , MUST, come by next time I'm in Varna. Greetings from Canada from another Bulgarian multiracial family. Your daughter is precious!
Hahah Justin, sorry to "disappoint you" mate, I speak English and Spanish and French but also learning German! Us Bulgarians as you know, can also read written Russian and understand SerboCroatian to an extent. We algo have a Greek influence so we need to adapt ourselves. Spanish is my favourite European language! This video is so cool and consider you an honorary Bulgarian! Your Golden Sands video in the past is very funny and cool! Welcome to Bulgaria, bro! :D
Read Russian is a bit of a stretch

Браво. Моите уважения! Кажи го на тези чехльовци.
Нищо чудно че 5 века сме били под турско рбоство, то с таквиа хора. Вечно наведени глави. Махат с опашки докато ги чешат по коремите. Никаква гордост и достойнство. Вече прописаха на английски повече и от чужденците. Горедеят се че дъщерите им се женят за чужденци, пък после защо имаме демографски срив/ криза. А през цялото време на всичко от горе сме и икономически роби на чужденците и най-вече западнвците. А наще даже не го и осъзнават. Само им текат лигите като дойдат чужденците да ги потупат по рамото.
@@stanimirgeorgiev.87 dude, chill, i also have heard of the legend of the British tourist that expects a free permanent stay at the hotel, because he used his pocket fly to put in his soup, to have a thing to complain about. Not all people are the same, as you saw, some multiculturalism can make you a better person. It's their weather and the "none of your business" attitude, so please don't act like them, be better.
In fact a lot of younger Bulgarians speak English quite well. This is because some had private English language lessons or have studied English at school /university. Me, as a Bulgarian, can say that I know English, because I had lessons in kindergarten, learnt English in school and attended private English language lessons. Also, when I was a kid (in the late 90s-early 00s), I used to watch Cartoon Network, which was entirely in English, not like now, when it is completely dubbed in Bulgarian. I love when I have the opportunity to freshen up my skills in conversations with foreigners or when I write something. Besides English, I also learnt German in school and I also speak Russian. In university I also learned Latin and Ancient Greek, because I studied for a BA and MA in Archaeology. Now I'm a PhD student in Classical archaeology at Sofia University, redacting my PhD thesis.
Thanks for sharing, i really appreciate it!! 👍😃
Haha, that takes me back. Yeah, I also started my English journey on Cartoon Network and in kindergarten as well. School and the internet also helped. You had CN from 7:30 AM to 10:00 PM then it would switch over to TCM in the night. Sadly, Cartoon Network got fully dubbed in 2008-2009 and they completely did away with Turner Classic Movies.

Имаше си дублаж и през 90-те, но по кабелната, ако сте били с чиния на сателитната нямаше :Д
@@markybgxxx2066 Възможно е. До лятото на 2009 добре си спомням че дублаж нямаше. :D
I am 10 minutes in and proud to be Bulgarian, feels like my beard grew a little more. I will continue watching this video another time as it is too nostalgic for me. Also, its hitting me in the feels.
Much love from me, 'a native Varna man living abroad but will return one day'
Best of luck on your journeys and I also want to write big respect for other people interested in our long-oppressed country (Just like many others really)..
Bravo Justin u completed the mision to became fully Bulgarian.. U played the HORO very well!! :))
Thank you so much my friend, i appreciate the kind comment!! 👍😃
It was a pleasure to watch this episode. Such a casual and easy talking with the locals :)
Thank you, my friend, for watching and commenting.👍😃
Love from USA. I’m coming back for my fourth time this summer. Bulgaria is awesome!
Plus I agree Bulgarians should speak Bulgarian. 😊
If you knew Bulgarian you would be amazed by the very low level of Bulgarian (especially written) of many of my compatriots :D Cheers from Sofia!

Keep up with the good job and thanks for sharing this interesting content about our beautiful country Bulgaria. It would be a pleasure to meet you some day! Cheers!
Hi, as a Bulgarian, I do watch your videos with lots of curiosity. I like them, thank you for that. And honestly , I think you are a very caring guy, everytime you are saying hello, thank you, you speak with the smile, I am sure you will always meet nice people. At least I hope so.

Thank you for that video! You return my hope for my town and country. Enjoy your time in Varna, and Bulgaria. All the best.
Don't ask elder people in Bulgaria whether they speak or not English - they usually don't :) , since they were young during the Soviet times and during Soviet times they were teach Russian (all of them) as it was mandatory language. Ask people from 10 to 40 years old and you will notice, that more than 80% of them speak English :)
P.S - Even my 4 years old daughter now understands English better than me when I was 10 years old, thanks to all the cartoons we play , which are mainly in English :)
Recently I've been surprised that even though they have studied Russian at school, most of them either don't speak it well or can't have a conversation at all. I don't have a particularly good opinion about my Russian level, but as I am learning it better I'm gaining more confidence, since I see that there's very few non-native Russian speakers around here that really speak well. They remember 'something' but they can rarely get a joke, a nuance or a wordplay. Knowing 'some' Russian and really having a grasp on that language are two very, very different things. As it is, of course, with English, or any other language in that matter. Many young Bulgarians' English (my age included, I'm 36) speak as much English as many of their older counterparts speak Russian... Bulgarian school is not the best place to learn languages. That I know for sure. From the eight languages I speak, I've learned only English at school, but I've studied in the American College in 8th grade. Bulgarian schools give a "How are you?" "Up-down" level of English :D
As a proud Bulgarian I can say we are multilingual Nation. I'm happy to see so many young and old people speaking different languages and are very helpful and even struggle to explain but they give their all even if they don't speak too much.
I just wanted to say i watched all the Bulgarian videos my friend. You really bring a smile to my face 😊. We are always happy to share our culture with a nice and curious foreigner. If you ever have a chance, try and visit the city of Ruse. There are a lot of history, architecture and, nice shops and restaurants there to visit. I promise you wont regret it 😜. Many cheers from a red blooded Bulgarian, born and raised in Ruse 😅
Не го викай в Русе, ще го погнат комарите.
I lived in Varna for several years (I’m Swedish and an English teacher) and have travelled more or less everywhere in Bulgaria. Whether people speak English or not is very closely linked to their age. Young people - up to 28 or so - usually speak very good English, which they learn in school. People over 50 of course speak fluent Russian, which THEY learnt in school, but no English, so Russian (which I speak) is a must if you want to travel outside the main tourist destinations. Between age 30/35 and 50, most people speak only Bulgarian - not an easy language to learn, and I have never met an expat who managed it!
I’m amazed those people had no idea where Sevastopol was 😮 It’s the very centre of Varna!
@@user-qu5ty4eg1jall they know very well where Sevastopol is dont worry😊
@@user-qu5ty4eg1j they were not bulgarians, even if they were, but aren't living in Varna, I reckon that they will not know too. There was a restaurant in the building at the corner across the park which was renamed to Sevastopol in 1948, a very popular place for dinners, celebrations, dates. With time the park was also associated with the name of Sevastopol, so most of the meetings in the center were just set up with keyword at the Sevastopol.
Great video mate, if you make this video in some neighbourhoods in London i think you will be surprised how many people speak less English than in Varna.
Well, you are a person who speaks many languages, as well as Bulgarian and Russian, I guess other Slavic ones too. You can appreciate the complexity of the Slavic languages, to some extent comparable to the Scandinavian languages. For us people who speak natively one of the Slavic languages, it is relatively easy to learn (at least to some level) English. And I congratulate you for speaking so many languages, even your Bulgarian is at a good level.
Thank you so much for sharing, i really appreciate it!! 👍😃
First time watching your video and I’m well impressed of your foreign language knowledge. Well done mate, hope you enjoy the rest of your travel in Bulgaria.
Thank you so much for your kind comment, i really appreciate it!! 👍😃
I love your positive energy! Keep it up
Thank you so much for you feedback, i really appreciate it!! 👍😃
I guess, it's part of the, so called, 'western KHAZAR-ASCHKENAZI" hypocricy"

Glad you enjoyed it!👍🙂

Bald, but not so bankrupt in most underrated country in Europe.
Thank you, my friend, for watching and commenting.👍😃
Hey mate, I've randomly found your video and hey! I'm from Varna myself altought I've been in London for the past 10 years. Love to see brits in my hometown, reacently we had Benjamin (from bald and bancrupt) in Varna soo I'm quite pleased to see videos about my hometown. Thank you for the video :)
so many languages spoken in this video. Just found this channel and I'm absolutely fascinated about some people's level of English! So impressive
Varna is very near some famous Black sea resorts like Sunny Beach, Golden Sands, Albena, and it's a tourist city. Locals work there and deal with tourists most of the year. It's the biggest port and sea faring is popular among locals. I think there's a naval academy and prolly at least 1 sea faring high school which teaches students about ships, navigating the world, languages, etc. It's only natural that locals speak many languages... it's a lot different inland, especially outside the top 5 cities and the cities situated on the Black sea.
oh I can imagine that. Thanks for the insight @@Koksn_Todorov
@@krayxeez funny thing is many bulgarian cities and ports were founded by Greek colonizers, our Cyrillic alphabet is a direct identical copy of the Greek alphabet (which is modified and derived from another alphabet, which in turn is derived from another, etc.), 70% of bulgarians have Greek names, but very few people actually know that and they don't like to admit it. 45 years of communism brainwashed people into believing Russians are our brothers and that we should crawl like dogs and bow down to the russian master.
@@Koksn_Todorov communism has caused many destructive things, I’m from Czechia so I feel you
Glad you got to the mekitsa place I wrote to you about in previous vids. They are really awesome! Enjoy!
Where is this place for mekitsi?
Can you tell me please?
Open Google Maps - search for Bazar Chaika, Varna@@justtuber4045
These are the coordinates 43.214807, 27.941259
@newhappiness5342 It's still there. I walk by it everyday.
Do you know name of the street probably?
@@justtuber4045 seems to me that this is right next to "Bazar Chayka", unfortunately there doesn't seem to be an exact street name and number for it; Luckily tho you can find it on Google Maps, it's called "Mekitsi pri Margo"/"Мекици при Марго" and you can also find it just by searching the following plus code on Google Maps: 6W7R+VF
The usual positive Brit scent... Amazing video, keep going mate!
Thank you so much, i really appreciate the support! 👍🙂
Mate I also learned my English for two years in Newcastle happy to see people like you in my country
Thanks a lot for sharing, I really appreciate it!
Pretty sure Justin is Bulgarian making up a story about being British!
I have been saying, just like others that for ages now. He really does even look Bulgarian, his facial features, all of that. Yes, he has a British accent, but we saw he's a polyglot and speaks Spanish and French just as well. I really think even sometimes he's speaking broken Bulgarian, just on purpose to hide that fact.
There's something interesting and different to him, that doesn't make him seem like a pure Brit. Can't put my finger on what exactly is that.
Just like Bald and Bankrupt actually used to live here in Bulgaria and that's one of the reasons he hasn't made a vlog in the country, but he shared that fact once and didn't speak about it again. There really are some mysteries in these city vloggers lore hahah. Although I'd say Justin is way better and not creepy like Bald, I think we all know all the controversies around him. Justin doesn't seem a creep like Bald or other vloggers, like Kurt Caz who most obviously is a drug addict.
I actually think Justin is some Bulgarian who left in the early 90s and whatnot and probably lived more in the UK and other countries, but was born in Bulgaria or at least is half-Bulgarian (or some other nearby E.European country)
@dwartbg1 he said Шунка is a sausage and pronounced мартИница. He pronounced Seva-stopol the way a westerner would. He did all that just to fool us, lol? He wrote he left London for the US at 15, I can catch some London accent in there.
@dwartbg1 where did Bald and bankrupt say he used to live in Bulgaria? Are u sure about that? He made a video from Bulgaria recently and didn't even know about the currency, seemed oblivious to the fact BG was not actually a Soviet Republic and seemed ignorant about the country as a whole... I read he used to live in Belarus for like 5 years and was married there, did u confuse those 2 countries by any chance?
Extremely interesting video brother 👌 I'm not surprised about the language skills of eastern Europeans. I worked for a long time in a camping ground in italy we had customers from there since the early 90's, they always been well educated, knowledgeable and well fit too! 👍
All Bulgarians under 50 speak English and a lot over 50s do so also! The older pensioners dont,basically because they werent taught it at school (Russian they got) + no internet,satellite, TV back then! (50s/60s).
Thank you very much for your input!
Great video! I love the fact that you are focusing on the positive things and act so friendly with the locals! It must be a great feeling to go to a foreign country and discover that most of the people speak your native language! Have a wonderful day!
I hope more of the tourists in Bulgaria are exactly like you!!!
Thank you so much for your kind comment!! 👍🙂
Great video,
I love your videos and better yet when you speak different languages to people you meet.
Cheers
Beautiful country, and people! The dancing looked like such fun! But, where did you leave your coat?
Sveiki Maruta! Thanks for the lovely comment, i agree with you it is a beautiful country and people.
Fortunately i was able to leave my jacket by the speaker, as it was too hot to dance in it! 👍😃
Bulgaria is lovely country
Nice people as well 😊
Agreed… thanks for watching my friend! 👍👌
As a bulgarian , I want to say thank you ! I love the positivity going through your video and also how well educated you are. God bless you , I will definitely subscribe and check your channel out !
Thank you so much, i really appreciate the nice comment! 👍😃
Thank you for posting this video, Justin. I`m from Bulgaria and it was very interesting to see your views on my homecountry. Much love from BG
I am so glad you enjoyed the video!👍🙂
I'm from bugaria and greece is cool that you did this video sorry for my English
This get lost in the city, and ask for directions advice , is something I was always doing in my life ! I laughed when I heard you giving the same advice. Is the best way to get know with the people and the city if you are new and foreigner
Agreed… thanks for watching my friend! 👍👌
Very interesting, thank you! I like the fact you are curious and positive, interact with locals and show places around.🎉
You’re my new favorite, mate! Love the Eastern Europe - and Bulgarian in particular - videos. Really fascinating how you manage to not be annoying 😄.
I live my whole life in bulgaria and i've never ever seen anywhere this kind of honeyvending machines im impressed 😀 and dominican woman selling mekitsas is insane 😄
👍😃
I am a Bulgarian, born in Varna. Lived there for the first 20 years of my life. Now I live in Vienna, AT for the last 25 years. It was very interesting to see this video. BTW it started near the place where I studied German and English, because the First Language School in Varna was close to there. That is where many of us learn languages. Wonderful video. Great content.
Thanks for sharing, i really appreciate it!! 👍😃
Love the video! You passed right by the first apartment we rented in Chaika, immediately before you went into the little shop with the post office service. Now live elsewhere in Varna Levski / Tsveten Kvartal - been here now for over three years - we love it here!
Hey Justin, just watched this video, love the outskirts of varna, great way to see different parts of the city and where it takes you, so much info from you
I know how much you love varna, but do you get around to other cities besides varna in Bulgaria, like I said in other comments, I'm from Australia, with Bulgarian background, and just love what you show us, keep in up, can't wait to see your next 1, and hopefully visiting Europe soon
Great Video . Great Content . Well Done . Thanks For Sharing.
You play very good horo !
Thank you so much!! 👍😃
Justin, you love Varna...! I love these video's and been watching since you started Justin and now almost 28k subs... To all of you watchers, please subscribe because Justin does so many very interesting and informative video's and you will not be disapointed..... The best part of the video's are the interaction with the people..... A great way to get a feeling for the people of the area.... Love the music at the 24:30 mark Justin, worked well with the two dogs running over..... Glad to see your looking good...! Greg
Varna - my city! Nice and fair video, subscribed!
Thank you so much 👍🙂
Hello from a true Bulgarian 🇧🇬 from Llandudno Wales 🏴 .
👍🙂
Justin you are a legend, loved the dancing, such an intelligent guy, envy(and admire) how you can just switch to so many different languages!
I am 34 years old man from Sliven Bulgaria and I also learned english mostly from video games and movies. I don't speak it very good, but when someone speaks to me - I understand everything.
Nice adventure 😁 The cats are awesome 😸
Mate, when I was in Manchester last year, my phone died and literally got lost in the middle of the night. It was a fun experience though. I’m impressed by your cultural knowledge and experience, as well as your honesty. Thanks for the video!
Thank you for that fabulous video, Justin! You really earned a subscriber! I'm Bulgarian and I also speak several languages, but the moment I heard you speak Russian I was really impressed, because there was no accent or anything, you really strive to learn languages with pronunciation, colloquialisms, slangs and all. Even if you can't read Dostoevski in original, you have the base already, you can build upon it, it's a great language with many ways to express yourself and many ways to say (or not say) something. Russian humor is akin to English humor and I like it a lot as well. Very, very rare for a Westerner to speak such a good Russian, congrats! Era una sorpresa grandisima también oirte habler español tan fluente con la chica dominicana. You apparently always learn the basic words of the language of every country you visit, and that's the way to go! I always find a common tongue with almost every person on Earth as well, and if we don't share one, there's always a way to understand each other :D As the old uncle of a friend of mine says, "I speak all languages, but when I speak too much, my hands start to hurt" You're a very nice person and if you ever come to Sofia, make sure to write me a message at apostolov(at)me.com to have a rakia (or two) together! Cheers!
Here in Varna you can meet people from any part of the world, many Russian speaking people from the USSR area, Armenians, Jewish, Turkish, Greeks, Gypsies, but also English, German, Indian, Caribbean, USA, Australian peoples, and don't forget Asian and African peoples. In some pubs and bars you can meet all of them together. Cheers and thanks for the video!
Да не забравяме - доста франкофони има също.
Can you please share the location of Mercedes’s Mekitsa shop.I would love to try them when I go back home in May.I am living in England btw 😄
It's in the "Chayka" neighbourhood, right across the street from the sea garden. There's a "Nedelya" pastry shop nearby.
@@LethalProtector8000 Thanks xx
26:00 thats why I love Eastern Europe. Forever in my heart and please stay the same, good or bad.
Ayo ! Thank you for visiting our little neck o' da woods :)
You seem like a genuinely cheerful lad and watching your interactions with the locals brought a lot of joy to my heart !
Have a lovely stay and feel welcome back in Bulgaria any time !
In Bulgaria people are educated and generally speak foreign languages. Unlike the USA, Great Britain, France, Spain, Italy... countries I have been to where it is extremely rare to meet a person who can speak a foreign language. The people there speak only their own languages. I have personally studied and speak Russian (a language that is Slavic and is very close to Bulgarian), Italian and English. The German language is also very popular in Bulgaria. Many people also speak French.
Hey, didn't know we had a honey vending machine and I gotta try those Mekitsas! Oh, and that cocktail name by the end cracked me up. The thing about the rubbish is a bit sad, but I can assure you, not all neighborhoods are like that. Anyway, watched the whole video with a smile and you have a new subscriber from Varna. Cheers! ✌😎
Dude, your set of language skills for a Brit are pretty impressive. I am impressed due to the fact Brits expect everyone must understand English regardless. You have made a quite an impression, while interacting in 5! languages already half way through your journey within the video. 10/10 thumbs up for you. Best of luck in all your future travels🥇oooh wow u tried Bulgarian too. You have earned a new subscriber for sure Sir!
What a nice gentleman. So nice that there are still people willing to explore and not just stick to the all-inclusive pig farm tourist traps.
btw mate the mekica shop is really special because they fry the mekica when you order it. She is right. Usually, they are made in batches and a new batch is started when they are near the end of the previous one. Because of this, you may have cold mekica depending on when you buy the mekica.
20:48 I hope Dimitar Zhelyiazkov is selling his honey fast because it's not ok to stay in sunlight for a long time as far as I remember?
Thank you very much for your input, i really appreciate it!! 👍😃
Justin, second comment for this video and you won me forever mate. I could have never imagined in my life to hear English gentleman speaking Russian so well. Impressive. Очен приятно, друг.
Seems that you really enjoyed your stay in Varna. :)
So interesting to watch my country from your eyes and perspective🙂Don't mind the negative comments if there are any - you are doing a great job!🙂

Thank you, my friend, for watching and commenting.👍😃
The gazebo you saw was actually built by one of the local britannicas which is in that very building, lol.
Great content, buddy! Keep the shining smile up. Thanks to your adventure, I'm gonna visit the mekitsa shop. Safe travels and stay positive!
Thanks for the great video and for taking us for a walk in Varna! Surely enjoyed it 😊
Hi Justin, you are great! I would be happy if you make something about Plovdiv too. The city is worth visiting.
Loved it. That cocktail must be really good 👍 😅
It was! Thank you so much for watching and commenting. 👍🙂
English is an international language and is used as a neutral language in multi-language countries such as Switzerland and Belgium. It is also used a common language in international companies even when there is a different local language.
Thanks for sharing, i really appreciate it!! 👍😃
Very interesting and positive video and Bulgaria is such beautiful country.Many young Bulgarians can speak fluent English but older people not so much.
I miss the Bulgarian breakfast so much.
Mekitza,banitza with boza, excellent start for the day.
Greeting from one Bulgarian who lives in Essex for almost nine years❤
I'm from Bulgaria... I wish you all the best in life❤😊
Thank you so much, i appreciate the kind comment!!👍😃
You should come to Sofia, it is one of the best spots in Bulgaria. Also, go to Tsarevo in the summer if you have the opportunity. It is the best city in Bulgaria in my opinion as a Bulgarian
You're such a brilliant person. Immediately subscribed. The amount of languages you know and the people skills you have are outstanding.
Thank you so much for your kind comment, i really appreciate it!! 👍😃
For the "martènichka" no hate, but it's called "màrtenichka" and in the bulgarian language its called "мартеничка"
I'm from Varna, Bulgaria and i love when someone from an other country comes here and sees what Bulgarians truly are.
We also have something we call folk dances and OOH, IF YOU SEE OUR "дунавско" YOU WILL WANT TO FAINT
If you want to see more, just search for Bulgarian folk dances
Watching from varna❤️🇧🇬
Мисля, че по-често ѝ казват мартеница. Или поне в моя балон е така.
Wow, mate- 1st of all watching this made me hungry, which is rare for me and then I suddenly got the desire to watch something connected to the Dominican Republic after you spoke to the lady from the bakery - dam there's something there you got making people engage big time - nice, wish you a fair wind and a lot amazing havens around that lil World of ours! 💯
Nice to hear Finnish language spoken by foreigners in Varna.
What a world we live in... Amazing👌
As a Bulgarian, the most important thing to know about Varna is that the nicest people in the world live there. Whether they know English or not, they will do their best to help you get to the place you're looking for! With all my love from Sofia to Varna!!
12:51 "Are you from Varna?" "Yes" while shaking her head in a way that would make an English speaker think she is denying it.
👍👍
Thank you, my friend, for watching and commenting.
as a Bulgarian I think most of the young generation - 30-35 years old and younger speak and understand English. but the older people used to speak Russian and German .I am surprised to see the Dominican Republic lady to make mekici.
Another great episode, Justin!
I was born in 1975, in the soviet era. We studied russian and english from elementary school. We were the first kids to start elementary at 6 instead of 7yo. And my parents signed me up to a kindergarden with english learning even before school.
Thanks a lot for sharing, I really appreciate it!
Loveeeee Bulgaria❤. From Brazil.
I really enjoyed watching that video ❤ good job my friendo
Thank you so much, i am so glad you enjoyed it. 👍🙂
Wonderful video and I'm really impressed by your language skills ..... how many languages do you speak ? Your French is absolutely flawless , no accent whatsoever ! You switch from English into French, then Spanish .... Amazing !!
In my opinion, you are more local then the rest of the locals....Such casual stroll ,brings to my mind why i chose Varna to live in!
I love when I see British people speaking foreign languages. Well done, you won an instant subscriber.
Това кмета на Варна дали го е гледал и ако не покажете му го !
👍😃
I see you often mention for the problems of varna ,like garbage,or street fences etc and it is a shame for the municipality of varna and for the ruling stuff,that they dont maintain the city better,cause varna is one of the richest cities in bulgaria and it is not a problem at all to put a new fence or to clean,only for example for the new vasil levski bulevard they pay 1 billion leva or half billion euros,but there are people that prefer to steal the money instead,varna is famous with their local mafia or TIM it is like cancer for the city,just ask the locals
Hello Justin I am from Varna, but I live in the UK. Thank you for this video 👍 Only one thing about Martenitza - you remove it when you see a blooming tree or Storkes , not necessarily by the end of next month.
