Bulgaria Ski discussion board

To those who have not been before. Bulgaria is not Italy,Austria or France. It is a relatively poor country. People go back again and again because of the people, the quality of the Instruction and the fun. It is not Sophisicated but it is good value for money. There is no such thing in life as a free lunch and why people moan about paying the cheapest money for a skining deal and then compare it to Italy is beyond most of us. If you book three hours instruction in europe that is what you get. In Bulgaria we get a full day and more. Where else can you find Instructors that will take you to their homes, meet the parents,family birthday parties and take you out on their time off. I first went because that was all I could afford, now I go because I enjoy it so much. Anyway I am now getting off my soapbox

Jules - hear hear mate. Same situation for us. Went 1st time six years ago for the same reasons and because of the humungous fun we had and brilliant people we met, we've kept going back, year on year so much so that our own group has now grown to 14 with 12 of them being 1st timers this year. Although I must admit, am getting a little bit worried that all this praising of the lovely country and resorts and its people, will get other people giving it a try and we'll have lost the best kept secret in Europe! Although, a rise in tourism would give all the guys out their a welcome boost to their pockets. Can't have everything I suppose and I am being totally selfish...
