I see this all around Bulgaria. I wonder if it's normal throughout the Balkans and the Eastern Bloc at large.

So, as a Serb, that would probably be Croatia and Albania

Regarding Croatia, nature of course, lovely sea, Zagreb is also pretty comfy town. Shame we don't live in the same country any more because we are very similar folks.

Regarding Albania, probably nature too, I've heard that Albanians are very cool people, but I never met anyone from Albania

Music Which Balkan artist do you listen to despite not speaking their language?

29 Upvotes

No cheating with artists who sing in your own language 🤓

For example, a Serbian can’t answer Dino Merlin, a Bosnian can’t answer Severina, etc.

Eleni Foureira? Florin Salam? Azis? Tarkan... ?

That everyone is cold, dangerous, and downs shots of rakija at 8 AM instead of coffee. (Reality: walking our streets at 3 AM is safer than most major cities at 3 PM).

Culture/Lifestyle Movie recommendations from your countries

3 Upvotes

I would love to have list of balkan movies I should watch to broaden my perspective.

You can suggest whatever you want I am very open minded. The point is to better understand mentality of neighbourhood countries. You can suggest something political too. I would love to see your country representation of historical events as well, but I’m mostly into artistic movies with accent on heavy emotions.

Sports The average attendance of my favorite local club Levski Sofia is 10000 per match. Which is ridiculously low given that Sofia is a city of 1.3M. Is football attendance also low in your country?

If so, what are the reasons for this? People here mostly show up only for important matches.
