Bulgaria Ski discussion board

Last New Year I stayed in a small private hotel and spoke to the owner who told me that it is a Bulgarian tradition for the local children to tap people on the back with a tinsel covered stick, when they do the tradition is to give them some change or small notes.
There were a handful of kids doing this in Borovets last year but it was quite embarrassing to watch all the British shoeing them away because they thought they were beggars!!!!!
Just thought I would give you the heads up so that our new European neighbours didn’t think we were so ignorant this year.
(take out some loose change on new years eve)
