Hi and welcome! I've been exploring Bulgaria for decades. I started out as a toddler and carried out ever since. I began guiding over 20 years ago. I love sharing my passion for the country, its culture and nature with others. With me, you can combine sightseeing with hiking, cave exploration with birding, wine tasting with historical sites. Tours are customized to fit easy, moderate, and high activity levels as well as particular areas of interest (general sightseeing, cultural sites, hiking, mountain views, birding, kayaking and mountain biking). By booking with me you support preservation of cultural and natural heritage, healthy urban environment. You also get a discount at my photography website, where you can buy or send as present quality images from Bulgaria as wall art, mugs, etc. Credentials: Ecology MSc, Sofia University "St. Kliment Ohridski".

Hi CPR Certificate / Berks County Red Cross, USA First Aid Certificate / Berks County Red Cross, USA Paragliding Certificate Assistant-editor Raptor Watch: A global directory to Raptor Migration Sites Restrictions: No None.
