About me
About me
Hello! I am a digital marketing specialist, blogger, craft consultant, amateur photographer, and former archaeologist. I have lived in Sofia my entire life and have witnessed significant changes in the city's culture, society, and landscape.
I have a passion for creating a map of Sofia's art, craft, and inspirational locations. If you're searching for places like these, feel free to explore my articles here.
Why Sofia?
Sofia has always been my place - I grew up, I studied and now I work here.
Sofia has many different faces and can offer a lot of (hidden) treasures for those who love to explore and wander around.
One thing I really appreciate is its fast development over the past few years, which puts it closer to other modern European capitals.

Swimming Pool
Art space with a view in Sofia
"Swimming Pool" in Sofia is one of the art galleries I really enjoy visiting - people often go there more for the view and vibe than the art itself!
