48 Hours in Sofia: A Local’s Guide
By Angelina Ivanova
About me
Well like many young people in Bulgaria I came to Sofia to study back in 2009. I have my Bachelor degree in Information Systems and then started to work as a Business analyst.
I am a very optimistic and open-minded person, always ready to try and learn something new. Two of my biggest passions are travelling and exploring new cultures. For me the most valuable things when I visit a new place are the people and feeling the local atmosphere.
Among my other hobbies are photography (and especially documentary and portrait photography), reading, walks in the nature and climbing (for the moment only indoors but someday I hope I will be ready to conquer some rocks).
During the little time I spend at home I love to experiment with cooking , somehow I can never stick to a given recipe, every time I will add something that I thought of.
Why Sofia?
I have to admit that my relationship with Sofia wasn’t love at first sight, but since I love to explore hidden places by myself I found that Sofia is like a shy flower, which sometimes hides its beauty.
It has a lot to offer from nice places to relax, cozy cafes, cultural events – but you only have to know where to search.
Despite the fact that I like travelling so much I still love the feeling I get every time I return back to Sofia… yes it feels like home!
