gluposti

gluposti, f.pl. (bulgarian) [glu-pos-ti]: nonsense, stuff and nonsense, rubbish, balderdash, trash, bullshit.

In many ways I think our "everyone is a star" culture is a sure sign of the end of the world, so the idea of starting a blog created a lot of ambivalence in me. That is why I called my blog gluposti, which means "nonsense" in Bulgarian. It is my father-in-law's favorite word and he uses it to describe any thing or action without real productive value.

Burgas is getting a makeover, the old Soviet buildings on the left now look like the resurfaced one on the right. Gonna miss this view for another year at least.

A ladder my father-in-law made, with the bucket mamatu uses for her roasted peppers.

I asked for the small but what the hell it’s 6 lev for a 500ml, which is $4. Correction. 3.78 lev for 500ml, which is less than $2.50. For more than a pint of Czech beer.

Teen pop concert in front of Soviet era monument.

Now that’s a gin and tonic.
