In general, I am a great patriot, I have always tried to find arguments and to defend everything Bulgarian and native everywhere and in front of everyone when necessary. But this summer I witnessed and experienced some very unpleasant incidents that disappointed me and made my patriotism evaporate. In June I was at a weekend seminar in Budapest. There were about 10 thousand people from Eastern Europe, the organization was great and we all left for Bulgaria satisfied and optimistic. At dawn through Kalotina we entered our territory and stopped to freshen up in a roadside restaurant. The driver locked the van and went to the bathroom. Returning after no more than 3 minutes, he saw a black Audi drifting dirty gas on the road and found that the middle window of the bus had been broken and a handbag with very important documents in it had been stolen. We called the police, two of them showed up, we seemed to have woken them up and they started repeating to us like morons that we should never say that they robbed us, but that the injured woman does not remember where and when she forgot her bag. If not, they would walk us around and write explanations. Egati police! Egati management! I experienced the second disappointment at Sofia Airport. Returning from ANTALYA and admiring the service at Turkish airports and planes, it turned out that I had to pay a fine because I missed my flight to Varna. And that was not true at all! The employee just made a mistake and gave me a ticket for a plane that had already taken off. Of course, no one found it necessary to apologize to me. Case three. With great desire I signed up for a trip around Scandinavia. Our group consisted of 51 people of different ages and professions. There is an old saying that a person shows what kind of person he is when he is on the road. It turned out that the Bulgarians are quite grumbling, undisciplined and annoying co-tourists. The claims had no end. It is good that the guide was an excellent professional. The cover of everything, however, was when in HELSINKI, one of the most pretentious personalities in the group (it turned out that she was a customs officer at the Svilengrad customs) committed a theft in a souvenir shop (worth 40 euros). They closed the store, the owner came, called the police and of course spat at the Bulgarians. But it hurt me the most when I saw the great disappointment in the eyes of our Finnish guide (a professor at the University of Helsinki who taught for a year to the daughter of the current president of Finland). This is a mess in Europe and in our country. Not to comment that nowhere did I see garbage, butts and plastic bags with which Bulgaria was buried from the borders to its beaches. PITY VERY PITY !!! Let's change, it's worth the effort!

I just didn't understand ... how do you suggest we change ?! if you think that only you make the subtle difference between Bulgaria and other more developed countries and at the moment you tell us how it is there - well done
My son studies in Germany and when I travel to him I constantly encounter this type of behavior. If you make a remark, it is said that we do so because we are poor, which infuriates me, of course. Because we are poor not so much materially as intellectually, but it changes very slowly. We have to change, but this happens only when we change the chip, as the king had said (for this word he was eaten in the media)
I'm sorry, darling, but there's no point in reminding you of the cliché about how many cultures have fertilized local women over the millennia ....
We really need a good change of humanity in Bulgaria, and in general. Nowadays, kindness is a rarity. And in words, everyone is looking for her, but in reality nothing is in sight !!!
Like you, I was a great patriot, I even worked for a nationalist party some time ago. Until in an instant it dawned on me how stupid, selfish and what not. I realized our almost fictional history, the many years of slavery, our mentality, and almost everything. The truth is that we are a lazy, envious, greedy and simple population. We are not even a nation. Nor are we freedom-loving - on the contrary, we feel safe when we have an enslaver, because we will rely on someone else to give us crumbs, not us to make a living. So no master will let his slave die of starvation. We lack social commitment - everyone is focused on the personal and the family as some supreme goal. The Bulgarian is a man in the pub and at the stadium, if you lie to him for 50 cents he will raise a scandal to God, but it will not react if you elegantly lie to it on documents with, for example, BGN 50. We are a population that absolutely deserves its destiny and existence. Neither the drought, nor the rain, nor the grisha are to blame, nor are the gypsies, Jews and Turks to blame. We are to blame for absolutely everything, even the rulers. We simply radiate what we are. They are our concentrated expression. The external is a reflection of the internal. The grayness in Bulgaria is a symbol of the grayness in our shallow and disgusting souls. So darling, give it a more realistic, consciousness and mentality change over the centuries, provided that quality material is introduced. And such a thing does not seem to come soon, even the little one leaves the borders of our country. neither the rain nor the grisha, not even gypsies, Jews and Turks are to blame.
