WanderLearn: Travel to Transform Your Mind & Life
Society & Culture:Places & Travel
Elly Roupcheva's family is from Turkincha, Bulgaria. In this podcast, we reminisce on the unexpected way we met there.
You can see the photos from our first meeting in my article about Turkincha.
After some initial laughs, we dive into the real meat of the conversation: how has Bulgaria evolved in the last 10 years?
In The Hidden Europe, I quoted Elly extensively in the chapter about Bulgaria.
As I am revising the book for the 10th-anniversary edition, I wanted to see what has changed.
What did she say back then that she would no longer say today?
