I always like to see where you guys are staying because you're Airbnb's are always nice! I agree with you love the aesthetic of the trams is Sofia, they are really cool! I wonder where you are going next!
Slightly Off The Beaten Track Thank you, haha I swear it takes us a whole week to find each Airbnb. We always try to look for the best prices 😅. We loved the trams 😍. We plan on going to Turkey 🇹🇷 next!
Public transport sounds affordable! Surprising they don't have Uber or an English equivalent ride hailing app tho! Food seems affordable too 👍🙂 you guys are so good cooking! We just eat out all the time lol 😅 but I guess in Asia it's so cheap and just easier. Flixbus, got it 😁👍 Handy and informative video Lana, nice work, thanks for sharing! 🙂
Peter and Yen Sofia was super affordable. Some countries don’t have Uber. Taxi me worked fine for us even though we don’t speak Bulgarian, we still just typed in the address as normal. We got most of our rides almost free since they give really good discounts for the first 3 rides 😱. Yeah we used to eat out in the first year in SEA too since it was so cheap. But we started to miss healthy eating a lot, (I wasn’t used to eating that much rice 😂) plus we save so much by doing groceries 😅. Thanks for watching 😁
Hey Lana, great video. I see you have a similar one for Bucharest. Which city do you think it is 'better' for a freelancer / digital nomad? Bucharest or Sofia?
Personally I preferred Sofia. But that’s just because it felt more homey to me and they do have a nice co working space. Internet wise both places had really fast speeds. Hope this helps 😊
These cost of living vlogs you do are just getting better and better. So informative and full of those little hidden costs. Where are you off to next. (you are probably there already) keep up the great work.
Kiwi John Thanks so much, John! We’re heading to Turkey tomorrow. Very excited for the new adventure, should be quite different from the places we’ve been so far 😊.
Hey ..nice information also I have check myself little bit ...I want to buy a house in Bulgaria..good place budget 30 million dollars ....which will be best place for staying...or children school ..now age is two years old. ❤️❤️
Hello! Thanks for watching 😊🙏 Sorry I don’t know too much about which areas would be the best to buy. I’m sure if you joined a Bulgaria Facebook group someone could help you with this question though 😊
Hola, que tal?, como van?, Los mejores y más cordiales Saludos desde puente piedra, lima, Perú, ojalá que puedas venir en algún momento a mi país y que disfrutes mucho de todo por aquí, con la familia y los amigos, felicidades por tus vídeos.
1 bedroom apartment in the city is far from 200 usd... The airbnb or a place like that you were in will cost you around roughly 600-800 levs per month to rent long term (around 400-450 usd). A nice apartment for 200 usd simply doesnt exist, even the worst places with cockroaches start from around 250 dollars at least. TaxiMe isn't an app that's used all around the country. Some cities have their own taxi apps that locals use. Uber did work in the country till 2016, prices weren't better than a taxi.
Yasen Thanks so much Yasen, it’s a shame that the website I use to make my cost of living videos updated this a few days after I made the video 🤦🏽♀️. That would make sense why we had troubles with Taxime in Plovdiv then 😅. Nonetheless the public transport was very easy to use and we found Sofia and Plovdiv very walkable. Thanks again for this informative comment!
170 for food for a month. Did you eat anything. Bulgaria is 5 times more expensive than UK. I do not know how you can say that, OT MAY YOU ARE ON DIET.
NOTE: You made a big mistake, letting people know tap water here is drinkable throe out our whole country. IT IS NOT. If you are at our seaside you never should drink tap water.
