Bulgaria in August – Sofia, Plovdiv & Varna

Hello! I'm Sam from Baie-Mahault, 26 years old, and I've planned two weeks in Bulgaria for August 2027. Rough itinerary: Sofia, Plovdiv, Varna, Rila. The core idea is a round trip – so lots of monasteries, a bit of beach, and if time permits, hiking too. I like accommodation that's small and personal, more like a guesthouse than large hotels. It's important to me not to rush through everything: I prefer to linger in a place if it feels right, explore local markets, and strike up conversations with people. I'm relaxed, an early riser, and in the evenings, I like to sit at a table with a glass of wine or a cup of tea. Linguistically, French works fine. I'm looking for a travel companion – we don't have to be together 24/7. Sharing meals, spending a day together, or doing a hike together is perfectly sufficient. If this sounds like you, feel free to get in touch.
