[Bulgaria property news and articles] Bulgaria property news and articles » Traveling to Bulgaria by sea ...: The drive to Bulgaria takes three or four days and is often made by people intending to stay for longer than a few days and to travel around.

[Halfway down the Danube] Halfway down the Danube: Fly Taxi: However, I have to say, that although everybody I've ever met has warned me about taking taxis in Bucharest, I've never had a bad experience (apart from one bloke who when presented with a 100,000 note to pay a 35,000 fare, and offered the change from 40,000, actually threw me the change from 30,000 in disgust at the miserliness of my tip.)

[BBC Blog Network] BBC - Mark Mardell's Euroblog: EU-Russia tensions: The larger and better equipped Soviet armed forces, according to Suvorov, were preparing their own surprise offensive against Axis forces, targeting especially their oil supplies in Romania: Suvorov's sources suggest that July 6, 1941 -- two weeks later than the actual German invasion -- had been set as the start of Soviet Operation "Thunderstorm".[55] Russian historian Boris Sokolov, exploring pre-war Soviet planning, also concluded that after the German invasion on June 22, 1941, the Red Army undertook counterattacks within the framework of the planned offensive and that the subsequent defensive operations of the Soviet Army, in view of the absence of pre-war defensive plans, were merely improvised:[56] hence the initial gigantic defeats."
[Valerex's Blog] My love affair with tourism You Lucky People « Valerex's Blog: My Dad liked pubs, so he often met old mates in one of the local cafes and theyd drink a “pintje” or seven, but visiting the cafe was seen as extravagant by my relatives so, often, Mum and Dad and Gran, my sister Marita and I would progress from house to house drinking a tiny glass of licquer in each. Dixmuide and Wareghem were no more than an hour away from Ostend by car, but even if theyd had a car to take them, my Flemish relatives wouldnt have been interested in going there.

[In the Field] In the Field: Hear from CNN reporters across the globe Blog ...: The owner of this place, and all Georgians who lived there where working in his land, in 17 centuries these poor Ossetian people who even didn’t have their letters to write and where as jungles and didn’t have their historical place to live and wanted to have any place to live and to be save from enemy were accepted, welcome, as Georgian are famous for their hospitability and they where allowed to live there, and Georgian people helped them for 3 centuries to feel themselves as a nation. BUT, in 1921 Russia came and occupied free Georgia, and they called them as “Autonomic Republic of Ossetia”, they did this because, they knew Georgian were too brave and will do anything to be against being slaves of Russia, and they made this part of Georgia( like Apkhazia) as potential hot points, if it would be necessary, and when Soviet Union broke and Georgia said we want FREEDOM ,Russian Comunists came and did everything to provoke war as if it was between Georgian and Ossetian people,(the same is with Abkhazia ) than all Georgians had to leave their houses, and lived as REFUGEES in other parts of Georgia and especially in Gory, which is near to SAMACHABLO, these people have no houses any more and for 12 ,13 years they are waiting and waiting,to get their hoeuses back, houses that was occupied by Ossetians ,of course by the help of Russian “peacekeepers”, who did and are doing everything to be with this jungles ,who were given face of human beings by Georgians for centuries, and for these years they do horrible things everyday in Georgian villages near by, before our forces started to defend their country, they began to kill Georgians, and even bombed villages, nobody says this reason, they only say that Georgia started and killed Ossetian people, and poor people are now refugees, I repeat, they lived in the houses that belonged to Georgian people who are refugees for many many years, this is very little part of the whole truth and now, in the region of Gori, where as Russians say that is under their control, those Ossetian Jungles kill people, take them to kill for their dead relatives, take everything that they like, cars ,hundreds of cows, everithing that were in the shops, take everything from the houses, and so on…and nobody protects them.The most horrible thing is that they take girls…..
[Travel] The Sydney Morning Herald Blogs: Travel: I was pretty happy when another Aussie made the trek into the area as it was great to hear an accent from home and I was more than happy to tell them what it was like to live there and show them around - I hope they weren't disappointed to arrive in "the middle of nowhere" and find another Aussie already there!
