Hi Kurt. Congratulations on all your videos. You are doing something that no one has done in Bulgaria before. You show the unknown Bulgaria. This is the real Bulgaria, which is not even known to the Bulgarians. You visited a few almost illegal distilleries, a market, became "friends" with Angel. By the way, BGN 20 for a walk in the Gypsy neighborhood was a bargain. You felt the difference between the north and the south of the country. You saw and showed us what folk psychology is, how many Bulgarians know other languages, what the hygiene is, the lack of infrastructure, how barbaric they treat live fish without realizing it. I hope you write a very nice study about life in Bulgaria. We look forward to your next videos. Good luck.

The guy who gave you rakia is my grandpa, his house was my home every summer ♥️ I can't wait to see him again, so happy he gave you some of his homemade rakia! Keep making great videos, I was crying watching it ❤️

I'am from Bulgaria and I really like your videos form our country! Keep doing your thing, and drink more rakia. 😀 Cheers!

The fisherman with the white beard was talking about how the whole scenery might appear beautiful to some people and nothing much to others who have spent their whole life looking at it. He said that up until winter he goes out and catches fish everyday if the weather is good. He was talking about his little boat and was making jokes about it being a "Параход" or a Steamroller 😂. He said fishing is all he does and he enjoys it. Edit: When you walked up on him he was making some cover for the battery that was supposed to go on his boat. He was showing you the poster of the Burgas mayor who he said was mayor for the 4th time now. He said he does great things for the community and helps people out a lot. Thats why they chose him so many times.

I’m from the states- Two of the finest and honorable friends that I met and have worked with in Europe are Bulgarians. They took me in like family. I love you brothers! Hi Krasimir and friends! Great vid!

I am a Brit..who has made this great country his home. I live in a village surrounded by hills..there is a great fishing lake..open fields..no fences or walls around fields. No one shouts, get off my land'...in Bulgarian of course lol. The people are the best..and the kids..so respectful..that's good parenting. There are only myself and one other Brit..in the village..just how I like. it. Except for the work in the 🌶, tomatoes 🍅, onions 🌰etc..plus an orchard...I am on permanent holiday. I retired here. Safest place I have ever lived.

i enjoy your vlogs so much. i was born in Bulgaria and i was adopted into the united states. i’ve been trying to find my family for years, and just looking at your videos is so awesome to see my homeland and the culture. i love this!

The man with the knife at the end is a very good friend of my father. I can't believe I've seen him on a video that I found accidentally :D

I love the moment when this guy gave you rakia to drink and he said "it's too early" for him to drink. You can see that actually there is a beer on the table :D My father says: "Никога не е прекалено рано за бира" - "It's never too early for a beer"

Kurt your videos are addictive! Thanks for this one too! Bulgaria 🇧🇬

Bulgarians are proud people. Sure a country to visit. Thanks for sharing.

Kurt and Valkan means the same, a wolf ! Great video of rural BG, your kind approach opened so many doors !🇧🇬

that dog that u called at 12minutes, was clear sign that it has been miss treated, my heart bled for it when i saw its behavior, i started crying to be fair... nice of you too show it some human affection

Hey Kurt, I am from Bulgaria, especially from Burgas, living close to the fisher village. If you don't understand and your audience would like to learn a bit more, I could invest some time helping you with the translation and adding subs to your videos.

Haha I love it how Kurt always has conversations where it looks like he understands it all, and then later says he didn't understand it at all :) I just looked up what "dobre" means....it means good/well....so he's constantly saying "good, good" in these conversations

България тук ли сме🇧🇬

Таксиджията си оправи надника за деня с тоя турист :D Eвала, държа се професионално.

I’m surprised how many Bulgarian words you learn and your pronunciation is very good too. I enjoy your videos and the places off the beaten path. Keep it up.

The old man wish you all the best at all 😃

I love countryside of Bulgaria, it looks much like my hometown in Aegean Region in Turkey. So green and authentic as well.

Really incredible and Big Thank you for showing the real life of my country. Yes nobody does it and you as a foreigner did it. Congratulations man. Do it more times in different places because your way it's very nice, smart and funny. Cheers Наздраве!!!

You are crazy Kurt winding up in locations you struggle to get out of but that is what makes your videos so interesting! People are very nice in burger, they help you big time.

Excellent travelogues showing real life, look forward to seeing them all!

I have watched almost all your videos for the last 3 days... Well done for the enthusiasm and desire to, you make such quality content, I wish you great success! Thank You!

15:19 he was saying that for tourists its beutiful view but if you live there for like 50 years you get used to it and its just basic view you know :)

GOD bless Bulgaria

So peaceful..your videos are one of a kind and my favorite on KZfaq..amazing sir

Thank you! Great video! And you are a nice guy ,who loves animals.That's awesome.Good luck! Love from BG!

Hello, Kurt! I like your t-shirt... Bulgaria on 3 seas! When you read this you know I am a proud Bulgarian :) I like your videos, I like your recorded vlog type adventures in BG and because in the video you've asked for somebody to translate what the fisherman that invited you in his house said, there you go ;) The man said that he is a retired pensioner, when you said that is beautiful he said that for some people is beautiful and for others that live there for fifty years like him it is a normal every day view, when you asked him about fish he said that is difficult and tiresome, he said he must go far in the sea everyday and he said that when the snow falls it's all over. Basically that was it :) so keep up with the interesting content and have a great New Year's eve!

I am from Bulgaria, but I live in Germany. I come sometimes in Bulgaria bc for my grandparents. Love from Bulgaria and Germany 🇧🇬🇩🇪

Kurt good job. I really enjoyed of your video and is very cool when you communicate with the Bulgarians. Love it.

I love the way you say "merci" really often , even when people are not french in front of you . Keep doing great videos !!!! merci

Thanks again for showing us the real world out there

I am just imagining me at my house, taking out the trash, cutting the lawn relaxing by the water....and some friendly foreign tourist with a camera wanders by and we have a nice chat. I know this is 3 years old by now but...keep it up Kurt.

Kurt bro, like, there aren't many people like you. Thanks for visiting our country and learning our language. Keep up the great work!

You are definetly extremly more Curious than the rest. As well good hearted. The animals know who is good and who not. The State of perfection is not where reality can be found. Go on boy. You are on the Right path.

You are great lad . Surprisingly good actually 👌keep doing what you doing and good luck.

Great videos Kurt keep it up.

After watching the many videos from you, I've started to pick up things in other languages that are going to help me in the future. Thanks you for everything yo

Your videos are so good and enjoyable, I only started watching a few days ago, and I have seen many.

nice video man, like how u show the true natur of our people, we are all friendly, we may have little but we are always ready to share ! keep it up, you should visit Snemorets, its probably the most beautifull village in Bulgaria

I just discovered your channel Kurt. You are an enrichment. You are showing Real Bulgaria. 🇧🇬🤝🏼🇩🇪. The older man you meet, with the music said; " don't touch it, its greasy/oily. And he said there is no fish here, only further in the sea. He said he stopped working in 1999. 🙏

you're freaking crazy Kurt , thanks for sharing your journey

Beautyful place, thanks for sharing your video

Hey there! Really nice of you to pet that dogo :D About those small houses, those would be more like working places, to fix a boat, or to stay for several days/weeks, while the fishing season is on. Those places arent really for tourists, since there is nothing really to see, so it's quite messy.. you should visit some seasides (virgin beach or something like that), some older villages near Veliko Tarnovo. I'm even sad i hadn't found your videos earlier, i could give you some ideas and even maybe bug in to have someone to share the experience with (the translation as well). Hope you did enjoy your trip here :)

can't believe you made to the fisherman's village! occasionally I go there for lunch in summer whenever I am back.:)

Awesome video! Interesting perspective that some of us, Bulgarians, rarely see.I love how people's attitude changes when they see foreign people.. they become somewhat more humble. So when you met the nice fisherman (~14', he said that there is no fish there , and the way to the sea is long and tiring but still he has to go everyday and then he joked that the fish may come here or meet him mid way. When you said that it's beautiful village, he said that it may be beautiful for some but for those living there all life (50 years) it's nothing special anymore. And finally, he said that the whole village is very happy with their mayor who has been running for 4 mandates (not sure that's the term in English, but it's 4 years per mandate). I hope that helps Keep the good work!

Ein echt geiles und positives Video. I hab in Burgas gelebt, aber leider hab das Dorf nie besucht. VG aus Augsburg 🔝

I work for a high tech manufacturing company, and they acquired a Bulgarian company recently, and maintain an office there. People think Bulgaria is old fashioned but they have good engineers there who make process design kits for semiconductor manufacturing, who knew? 😎

Well done my brother, your video's is very nice 🍻

Lmao man this is comedy😂😂😂love it. Being Bulgarian and able to speak both languages has me dying.

Binging all your videos and loving them! Can definitely tell Harald is an inspiration to you.:) When you hitchhike next time make sure its a safe spot people can pull over!

You are a very likable person, very diplomatic, polite and people appreciate that regardless of their origin, plus charismatic and even funny. What else can anyone ask from a host!? Respect of other people culture is a must and you are showing it wherever you go, blessings!

Great video, Kurt. I am Bulgarian, I have been many times in Burgas but I didn't know about this place!

I just saw this video in my recommended. I am from Bulgaria as well. Amazing video of yours.

Great video buddy. Greetings from England🇬🇧🇧🇬🏊‍♀️🚣‍♀️🚣‍♂️🏄‍♀️🏄‍♂️

Really sweet wearing this Bulgarian Tshirt and trying to speak the language! You are really nice person :)

Yoo Kurt, I literally started watching your videos 2 days ago and pretty much binged half of your adventures, what a life what an occupation. I was pleasantly surprised you have an adventure in my country and was struck to see you visited one of my favorite places from my childhood in this video. My grandfather was a fisherman in this village and I spent many suppers here with him and my grandma but we sold the property and I have not been there in years. This video struck a cord in my soul, you managed to catch the atmosphere of the place and some of the amazing characters which have been there for years. My only fascination is that you did not manage to find the biggest attraction of the village the big beached ship that is next to the beach area and the pier, you would have liked it. I am not sure it still operates as a hotel and a cafe but it is a sight to be seen for sure. You did manage to go to places however where I seldom ventured as a kid. I just want to make it clear that I do not blame you for not finding it at all, the whole place is like a giant maze, best of luck on your adventures, you allow other people to experience a bit of adventure when they are unable to in reality.

great video....enjoyed all the aspects of the journey...i'm on my way there soon

It's so good. You can make such a trip in the Rhodope mountains.

13:45 When you asked him “ How are you?” He answered: I am working a lil bit but a lil bit. I am just trying to find something to do. 🤣🤣🤣

I admire you for that. A real tourism. Best way to feel different culture is to explore people and their kind of living. I remember how I got lost in town of Bodrum once and I felt really well walking around the houses

Enjoyed this, will look for the village when next that area

Amazing. I'm Serbian but fav drink def is rakija :) u learn a bit of every language you go,like that,shows respect towards the people and country as well.

Много добре приятел ... Very well buddy!

Your a good egg , Kurt, Showing the world, the smaller parts of the world!! ✌️❤️🌴 Safe travels….

Coming back after 4 years, kurt u changed a lot in a positive way ❤

I love your patience in speaking with folks who don’t speak English. Fascinating how humans open to having conversations don’t allow the language barrier to deter them.

You're talking to people like NPCs in an RPG game, it's amazing :D

Binged almost all of your vids, they will live on for years, add dubbing/captions for the older vids so they can be enjoyed like you later ones. Keep up the awesome dude - did the same 25 years ago!

I look forward to your next amazing videos. great bro

what a beautiful country!!! from argentina, hope to visit some day

Ahh man you have been to Burgas? Damn I saw ur channel today and I am already ur fan subscribed to u. Cool content. Keep it up 💪 😎

In my opinion this people have what they need which it comes first and that’s all it matters very friendly you respect them and it goes a long way the best for them and a great video man

I like how you go to the places tourists don’t usually go and show us the locals lifestyle that’s the best part

Big respect for you

You manage to find the trippiest taxis ever i swear hahaha

Wow the people invite you to enter their simple homes to go out side and look at the beautiful views. So welcoming and charming

Lol Bru, I love the way you hitchhiked 🤣 for all of us back home who will never hitchhike, awesome vid, so I watched all the others, now I'm watching some of your old stuff 😅

always enjoy your videos I feel like I've travelled everywhere with you. You remind me of that saying that All men die but few men really live. You do :)

Beautiful country and beautiful people ,❤️❤️

After watching the video , I started to learn some simple Bulgarian phrases, that is great!

Your videos are beautiful. And you move very smoothly. You train well

Dude you have to find an area on the highway where someone can safely pull over. You're causing danger just by being a distraction for the drivers on a blind bend. Other than that great video my man, I'm sure not many people get to experience that fishing village as you have. Thank you for bringing us along! Poor fish though, I don't buy into that theory that fish feel no pain.

Never expected for you to find someone that spoke Spanish lol

man this video made me cry at least 100 times for 100 reasons i understood every bulgarian word and i am mesmerized about how you see us as a nation

Everyone needs Angel in his life especially when you on rakia 😂 the people really seem to be welcoming and friendly over there, I love what you do mate

Hey man, just stumbled upon your video from this lovely fishing village, would be glad to help you translate what they said, so you can eventually fo some subtitles or something:)

Hitchiking isn't a problem in Bulgaria. But my man, you're standing right after a curve in the road where the drivers can't see you and have no time to stop. And you were also going the wrong way, lol. Download google maps next time.

❤❤❤❤ what a beautiful country, amazing, l appreciate your vlogs ❤ Bulgaria,

Awesome content, i really had a lot of fun with your videos. And you did a lot of funny staffs. Keep uploading such videos. BTW its the first time i saw such "thing" with the fish, no one do that!. Its really funny how you get to know the people. Greetings.

The old man that you met is very good guy 16:40

Its great to see that you have learned some bulgarian it really helps when speaking with locals 👍

Awesome video! 🤘🤘

you are one chill dude

Awesome Video! You're right about the West, people are too paranoid but many have a good reason. From experience it's not always been this way, in the late 70s early 80s many part of the states had very friendly people, unfortunately it started to change in the late 90s and is now a thing of the past. It seems sad to me that kids are not allowed to play outside in most areas, its hard to believe things have become so bad.

Everybody was so nice and friendly ❤️🙏

nice video! very cozy little town, and very friendly people. It's a shame the lack of communication because of the language barrier

Dear Kurt, I’ve been following your videos at Africa as well. What a contrast- Bulgaria’s fishermen village with a few pensioners around and Africa where there are so many people and so many children despite of the misery surrounding everywhere. P.S. Just ask what you want to know in Bulgarian my dear, I could translate.

Bravo, Kurt!
