euro money

hey yipee it's snowed. if bulgaria is going eu in jan does that mean we will need euros to pay with too.

re: euro money

Suzie,
Lev's untill around 2010.
Take loads of hot chocolate, chewing gum and toilet rolls
Some say that its best to exchange money here if you wish to spend time looking around for a better rate when you are out there, you might find better but its swings and roundabouts.
Watch out for Mafia chocolate dealers.

re: euro money

We have been in the Eu for years. Do you use Euro's here Suzie?

re: euro money

Suzie,

Get your Leva from an ATM over there it's cheaper than buying them here. It's a good idea to have some for when you get there though. I usually take about £50 worth.

Excuse Dan but I think he has answered this question 8 million times.

re: euro money

I know nothing!!

re: euro money

us dollars, and change then for hot choc which then gets divided into chewing gum, shared twice for toilet roll then you get held up by a strange man with a gun asking if you asked when will it snow

its still Leve sorry suzie get a bit silly sometimes

re: euro money

Bonjour Suzie!
As it is probaly the same in la France then it is in la Belgique, you cannot change euro's into Levs pour le moment.
The best thing to do is when you arrive go 'change' shopping at hotels and banks..
for Borovets change at hotel ELA! best price!
100 euro = 194 levs
(hotel samokov: 180 levs = not good!)
I do not know for other resorts but a lot of info is under the search buttom..have a look.
Pozdravi (salut) Tanjette
