lol! I wish.
No, I don't know though - I've not had the pleasure of holiday in Borovets yet! I really should do though. Perhaps one year I'll do an apartment swap with someone for a week.

re: Pamporovo or Borovets?

I've been to both resorts and much prefer Borovets, both for the nightlife, bars and restaurants, and the wider choice of runs for skiing and boarding.

My teenage sons are good boarders and they found Pamporovo quite limiting. Borovets has a lot more runs, and the scenery at the top of the gondola is stunning on a clear day.

I think one of the best things about Boro is the Musala pathway - you can ski/board from the very top right down into the town. It's something like 6km or 10km ...

Whichever you choose, have a great time!
