viva vivian Post Count: 1 Msg: #1 1091 days ago, November 28th 2006 | I'm travelling to Bulgaria, Bansko resort, in a couple of weeks for a winter vacation with my family. Can someone recommend me a good hotel to stay, places to visit or share his/her experience? While having our vacation we will try to buy a house or an apartment there.

We would be grateful if you could give us information regarding the visa and work permit process you encountered in Delhi, guessing that you went to Bulgaria from India. Where in Bulgaria are you located? Are you living there permanently with your family? Any information on Bulgaria and your experiences would be gratefully accepted. If you have any advise for us please do not hestiate to give it.

I now live up in the mountain village Govedartsi, near the popular ski resort Borovets. I have to warn you about Bansko, as far as investment goes it is likely you will loose money, as it has been over-developed, to quickly and now expereinces things such as water shortages in the winter due to this. I went up last week, it is a dust pit! Couldnt have the windows of my car open because it was so dusty. Location is not great either it is over 2 hours from sofia airport, whereas Borovets is only about 1 hour, and much nicer. There are plans to expand Borovets, though already it is popular and very busy in the season. Some of the apartments built in Bansko will have to be pulled down, it is a nightmare! I have bought 3 properties over here, but my advice to you would be stay away from Bansko, if you have no booked you accomodation yet. You could maybe go to Borovets, and take a drive up to Bansko to see it for yourself. I run a small B and B in Govedartsi, which is close to Borovets, so i have loads of experience about the area if you want to know any more. My main advice would be come over and take a drive around to see what areas you like, the country is so diverse. Also view anything you buy yourself, I know it sounds stupid, but a lot of people have bought off the internet, and found that the photos where very deceiving. Get in touch if you want to know anymore! I have travelled the country a lot looking for the right house, but well worth it! Lynne deleted_41219 deleted_41219 Post Count: 2 Msg: #8 872 days ago, July 5th 2007 | Hello Lynne, | Thanks for the information. When we come to Bulgaria we will be renting an apartment and then will be looking around for houses. Sam is a Teacher in Special Needs and has more than 20 years of experience in this field. We have decided to stay in or around Sofia coz' of job and english schools. Are you an Bulgarian or another country citizen? Do you have any information regarding obtaining a Resident Permit. We are planning to come with a short stay visa hopefully valid for 12 months and during that time apply for a Residence Permit. We would like to know what documents they ask for obtaining a Resident Permit. How long does this process take? Do you know of any Indians settled in Bulgaria? I am asking this since we can get full information regarding the visas and the process they went through at the Embassy of Bulgaria in New Delhi. Here in India obtaining a visa is quite difficult for any Indians. My husband is English and my daughter and myself are Indians. Awaiting your feedback. Thanks Aureen Lynnevw Lynne van Wyngaarden Post Count: 3 Msg: #9 809 days ago, September 6th 2007 | Hi Aureen | Well residents permits are not really available for expats now we are in the EU you if you have UK passport you can get 1 year stay permit. after which you reapply for a futher 3 years, but this seems to change as and when they feel like it! if you would like I could give the details of some bulgarian people who would help you find an apartement. lynne Altidbulgarien Thomas Nielsen Post Count: 2 Msg: #10 253 days ago, March 15th 2009 | Hi Viva, | You can try a Nica (France) like place at the BUlgarian Black sea coast at very low price. This is bargain believe me if you want a quiet and nice summer holiday! Look at rejser to find more!

Try to avoid the big resorts like Sunny Beach and Golden Sands. They are offering only mass tourism and laks a real bulgarian atmosphere. In the small sea-town of Balchik, with about 13.700 inhabitants you will find a very beautiful place. You can find it here for instance. Look for instance for summer <snip>. holiday and <snip> here. Use the Google translater tool, and the site is in any language you prefer. Balchik offers 3 small sandy beaches and have many nice restaurants right at the marina. Try the turbot, but it must be fresh from the sea. Then you will have a perfect and inexpensive meal overlooking the beautiful black sea. A bottle of nice local wine will cost about 9 Euros and a draft beer about 1,3 Euros. | [Edited: 10:06 - Jo Trouble - urls removed.
