Well my luggage is offically....not here yet. I realized that the cord to plug my camera into the computer is in my bag, so no pictures until my luggage gets here. I am wearing a mix of Ivan's mom and sister's clothes. I did have to go buy some underwear and socks.
We are having a great time so far. I have quickly realize I know very little Bulgarian and I have plenty to learn. Ivan's mom bought me a great book I am going to start working through. We are going to call my teacher today so I can start meeting with her. I am ready to get going and learn as much as I can.
Ivan's sister arrived last night. She has a nice, smooth trip. I have to admit I was a bit jealous :) Mitko was here briefly but he headed to Ruse where his parents live. We got to see Ivan's grandma Margarita yesterday, she is a wonderful lady. She is so full of life and energy. She had made Paniska (Bulgaria bread and feta dish) for us. Her Paniska is completely homemade, and is absolutely amazing.
Well I think we are going shopping to get me some new clothes. I guess that nice thing about losing your luggage is that you get new clothes. I miss you all. Have a great day! I will write again soon. Please keep posting comments I love hearing from you.

I love that you shared about buying new undies! ;) Miss you and am enjoying hearing about your trip so far!
ReplyDeleteWait, what part of Bulgaria is this in? Sofia? I'm asking because of the 'Paniska'... is that the same as "Banitza"? I think so, but it might just be a regional difference in pronunciation...[my knowledge of the word is from Sofia] its sooo delicious! :) Oh man, my mouth waters just thinking about it. <3
