- Welcome to the extraordinary city of Varna in Bulgaria.
Join me as we explore the streets of Varna in Bulgaria and go back in time to an era that fascinated me growing up in the West..
We enjoy the typical Bulgarian breakfast Banitsa and delve into a culture that is both rich and diverse.
Lets meet some locals and have some fun, from a former model, to locals that feel they are stuck in time.
If you enjoy adventure videos from the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, then grab your vodka, some zakuskas and join me as we explore this extraordinary city of Varna in Bulgaria.
Thank you to all my CZcams Members and Patreons for your support and for helping make this channel what it is!

I came across this series of videos by accident. I am glad I did because Justin has produced some really informative videos about the various locations in Eastern Europe. What I like about Justin's video is his down-to-earth style presentation and the way he connects with the people he interviews. My favourites are the ones from Bulgaria, particularly the city of Varna. Indeed these videos bring back memories of my visits to Varna in 2007, 2008, and 2017. I actually stayed in Varna for a week back in June 2008. Well done, Justin for these travel videos!
Hello mate and thank you so much for the kind comment.
I am so happy you enjoy the content and like how you summarised it all.
I will pin this brillian comment
All the best mate👍👌
I visited Bulgaria in 2019 and I was impressed by the kindness and politeness of the people. In general, the people are well-educated, polite, interested in the world.
you visited another country probably lol...we are not the people you described

Yeaaa u didn’t go to Bulgaria lol
Great video. I went to Bulgaria in 2019, such hospitable people. I miss the banitsas!
Hi Tom.
Wow you are a well traveled guy with quite a lot of local knowledge and experience.
Ever consider trying CZcams?
@@J.E.E I've been tempted before, so perhaps I'll have another think!
@@TomLafford would be happy to share my baby steps so far, if of any use to you.
Let me know if you decide, it's a fun hobby👍
@@J.E.E Will do, thank you! :)
Well we are not america😂😂
Dude, I can't believe you got the banitsa from the same place I used to buy it almost every day. You know the best spot! I've never seen a video like this that delves into what normal life in Bulgaria is like, they always cover the more touristy areas. And your Bulgarian is amazing too!
Just a small correction: Airyan - is Bulgarian national drink made of Yogurt,salt and water. Kefir is different and yes Kefir is eastern drink. But all Bulgarians love their yogurt and it is something we are very proud of giving it to the world.
Your welcome 😃
Турски е ;)

Bulgaria is beautiful and the people are lovely
I've never been to Varna, but it looks amazing. I've been to veliko turnovo for years. Love that place.
Hi mate
I agree, Veliko Trnovo is great as well as many other places in Bulgaria.
Where are you from if I may ask?
@@J.E.E Edinburgh, but I have business and property /land in VT.
You have to come to varna and especially in living areas from late 70's
I was born in Veliko Turnovo! Lived there for 9 years then moved to the US. Varna was a fun place to visit when going on vacation though!
looks amazing? maybe to a scotsman, but anyone civilized would consider it pretty dingy looking; nondescript at best.
Lovely video! ❤️ Just a couple of things - Varna is the third largest city in Bulgaria( Plovdiv is second), and our cheese has nothing to do with feta, we have a lot more variety and it’s much better. Also, please do not emphasize so much on the Turkish influence - it is undoubtedly there, but our ancestors did a great job of maintaining our traditions(our folk music is very unique, it is nothing like the Turkish). Next time be sure to check Mangera, it has the best food in Varna🥰
really? So I should be traveled south America as I visited Serbia, bosnia, romania, macedonia, even Croatia! and it is not only food tradition ... Any person can see Turkish tradition in these lands... so your stupid theory (500 years slavery under Ottoman) becomes bullshit. this is why many bilgarians try to deny Turk influence on their culture... Actually we balkan Turks lived under slavery of Ottoman empire for 500 years. At least Bulgarish man had a right to become Doctor, Butcher, Veterinarian, Teacher etc, but we Balkan Turks did not! do not tell me your fake history !
Awesome video. I spent a year in Bulgaria (2003-04) as an Erasmus Student at the American University in Blagoevgrad. I visited Bulgaria a lot after that up to 2010. I was also in Varna a couple of times and by the looks of it, it hasn't changed. Keep up the good work 👍
Hello mate and thank you for the kind comment.
Always nice when people, with experience, can confirm what you say is true.
I lived in Varna during the same years!!! How interesting is that? And we end up meeting on CZcams.
I really enjoy your channel and your take on Life in Belarus.
I will be planning a trip there in the not too far future... Let's have a beer or two and share Bulgarian stories and memories!!!
@@J.E.E Sure, you're more than welcome. Будь здоровье!
Absolutely superb video and approach!I am am from Varna but live in UK now.Such a genuine guy you are .You took me back in time where I was crossing these very streets as a teenager with my mates!Loved the video!Well done Justin!
I started watching your channel from yesterday. I have really enjoyed your content, presentation, articulate style. That's why I am surprised that your uploads are not getting 10s of millions of views. I have never been to Bulgaria but this clip has given me a good overview of the city. Thank you. I am going to watch all of your videos.
Native from Varna 😆 Love your perspective. And yes, walking in the city is an excercise
Hi Jerry.
Vanna is an amazing place with amazing people and it is always nice to have the local Feedback.
I highly appreciate the comment and thank you for watching👍👌
Native from Varna too🤠
Actually he was in my neighbourhood-Generalite🤠
@@J.E.E I am not native from Varna, but was born in a city not far from it. However unlike GeryNH I don't like your perspective, because it mostly focuses on the negative sides - poor old people, old broken tiles, socialism, etc. Even though that is true, you must be more balanced in your review and show the good stuff. And by good stuff I don't mean just the breakfast and it's cheap price. Lol. Take a lesson from Gabriel Traveler.
Hi guys, we are wanting to visit Varna/Sunny Beach/Nessebar/Golden Sands for the months of October/November. Would you suggest this or is everything closed? Thank you :)
Just moved back to Varna after 27 years in Toronto, I was 10 years old when we left so I didn't have that many memories, but I still managed to go down memory lane none the less. You walked right by where I lived up until 3 weeks ago in the red square, love that area. You even went to Chataldja, which was around where I lived before we moved. Great video, subscribed!
Great video mate, some great interactions and insight from you once again. Thanks for the adventure and I look forward to the next one. ✊👍
Cheers Mr. Random!
Will keep on feeding the CZcams machine like a hungry seagull.
All the best mate!
Hello Justin thank you so much for putting up this video we are so please to have found you.
we were in Bulgaria a little while ago and we had such a great time. its nice to see the people still being friendly
We look forward to seeing more from you in the Future.
until then my friend stay safe and we just want to say welcome to the Family.
Love and Light Sarah and Glenn
Hello Sarah and Glen, my fellow CZcamsrs
I appreciate the kind words of encouragement and am happy you enjoyed the video.
I hope to share more adventures in the future and as soon as I am done responding to all my comments I will hop over to your channel and enjoy your content.
All the best and see you on you channel message board👍👌
I can only shake your hand and say well done for feeding the pigeons and cats. Good deed!!!
Thank you Julia... I.love animals👍👌
There is salt in the airian which will probably kill the cats. And the pastries are poison to pigeons too...You never feed birds anything from grains, baked with salt etc.
@@J.E.E Just buy them cat food next time around, it is common misconception that milk or yogurt especially salty airian is good for cats.
Thank you for the nice video !
I am from Varna and I appreciate your efforts.
The way you speak Bulgarian language is very sweet 🥰
Wow man, I've seen a lot of travel shows but your familiarity with the people and daily life makes it so much more informative. Subscribed!
Thank you for the lovely video about the beautiful sea capital of Bulgaria - Varna
Im glad that all your viewers like Bulgaria. Lovely video content. Thanks
Finally! Was waiting for this. Love the edit
I am happy you enjoyed it. Been in the works for a while
Thank you so much for watching and commenting mate!!!
Will be sure to tell the editor👌👍
Sweet video! Enjoy your time in Varna. Waiting to see the beach.
Hello mate.
Recorded some footage of the beach, but will have to go back in July to do it any justice👌👍
Will be sure to make a fantastic Varna beach video😊
I am truly mesmerized how open mindedly you approach your interactions with the locals. It appears genuine and refreshing. In your videos people can see see both good and bad about this country. Overall the flavor of the video is positive and beneficial and hopefully it can break out the typical stereotype, people have in the west about Eastern Europe. Warm greetings from The Netherlands.
So knowledgeable. You really know your stuff. Love your videos!!!
Thank for the kind comment and for watching.
Highly appreciated 👍👌
Same feeling for Varna and its people - they are amazing!
Amazing! Such lovely vibe from you, your time shooting that video and showing people around looks effortless 😍
I’m so impressed that you’ve learnt some Bulgarian too!! Keep it going!
You are beautiful
Hi Justin. I like your positivity and the way you speak about my town. I just came across this video and enjoyed it a lot.
You're such a positive guy and the way you have felt Bulgaria mixing with the people makes you one of my personal favorite foreigners I've ever met around. Keep on this wonderful documentary. Who knows we may meet in the future ! Cheers to you sir !
Hi my friend, Thank you so much for the kind words and for supporting my channel! You can DM me on my Instagram page and we can talk about meeting some time👍👌
Познавам Живка.Заслужава още повече внимание защото е уникална: сърдечна, почтена, професионалист ,с минимални цени за услугите и умението си,прекрасен човек!!!
Its so interesting to see what foreigners think about our nation. Glad that you enjoyed your time here!
I’m from Varna. It was interesting to see your point of view about my city. I’m glad you went through the small streets and you visited the small businesses, because it’s all part of the soul of Varna. The problem is, i saw you eating that banitza and i should buy me one tomorrow with boza.
Well thank you for the opportunity to see a rustic town forgotten by time, good stuff.
My pleasure Vic... Love going to Varna!!!
And as always mate, thank you for watching and your support!!!👌👍
Justin, I just love your insights into the people and places in Varna. Thank you.

Hi Franki.
I appreciate you comment and am happy you are enjoying.
Thank you for watching mate 🙂🙂
Great video, I really enjoy it! Keep the good work :)
Thank you Anton.
I highly appreciate the encouraging comments.
New video out, I hope you enjoy it👌👍
Once a Bulgarian misled me. I was in Slovakia as Polish and came across a Bulgsrian. I asked him where to go to get to one place. He told me: do prava and showed to go on forward. I misunderstood him because in Polish: W prawo means go right. So I got to a swamp side with no way on. :)
That is so funny, the same thing happened to me in Bulgaria.
I was 8n a taxi and told the driver na pravo... Which is right in Russian and he kept going straight🤣🤣🤣
I later found out that in Bulgarian it means straight and "na diasno" is right.
Thanks for the cool comment mate👍👌
Well done mate, great content!
Thanks for the video, Justin. Greetings from the very south of Brazil.
I am happy you enjoyed it ny friend!
Obrigado for watching and leaving a nice comment
Such a great video man! Everything that you've said was the complete truth! I really like that you are going to small shops, the idea to give your money to the small businesses is really great! I hope you visit some oder place in Bulgaria, we have really beautiful places in almost every corner! I hope I see you one day in the streets of Varna🙏👍
Another great video! The yes and no thing is confusing
It really is🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for watching mate.
Thank you for sharing this. it is very difficult for old people now and without the support from their childern they can not make it ..Salute to those hard working bulgarian
Amazing video. I am from Varna. Now abroad and miss Varna so much ! Thank you for sharing:)
Thank you for watching my friend! I’m glad you have enjoyed my video on your hometown! 👍👌
Love the Bulgarian language when you were ordering the coffee 👍👍👍very good
Hi my friend, Thank you!👍👌
Brilliant opening and good on you for shopping local. Now subbed.
Hello my friend and thank you for subscribing.
I like to help the smaller guys when possible and I assume you do the same, so good on you too mate.
Will be doing more Bulgarian coverage very soon.
All the best and thanka for the nice comment 👍👌
On the other site of the road where you passed next to the flavours shops is the one of my cousin . Is so facinate how you as a British explain Bulgarian culture and history . I'm glad you liked banica ! 😅
Hi mate, your channel is so underrated! Im sure it will grow soon! Great content! And by the way if you like old places and cities with lots of history, you should visit Etara and Shipka.
Hi mate! Thank you so much for your kind words and support… will definitely look into visiting some new places soon😁👍 Thanks for the recommendations.
Awesome video. Thanks.
Thank you Omara, I am happy you enjoyed it.
My lovely town 😍❤️🤗 Amazing video
Thank you so much for watching and commenting, it really helps support the channel. 👍👌
The lady was telling you - You eat now the best tomatoes in the world, but imagine their taste 50 years ago...Your videos are superb
Cool video, sir! You took a tour in the neighborhood where I live, even met the local drunkard (Mr. WhiteShirtExModelWannaBe). It's good to see a foreigner enjoying the small things that are actually determining Varna's uniqueness. Take care and safe travels to your next destinations, keep the good work!
Thank you for your excellent video.
Great videos. I like that you have conversations with local people and there’s very little editing. I am thinking about moving to Bulgaria from the US
Thanks for the tour and your observations. Definitely a good thing to shop with the locals, not the large multinational companies, we do the same. All the best good sir
It's a pleasure, I love to travel and this new CZcams hobby is a lot of fun.
Good for you for supporting the little guy!
Thanks for watching and the kind comment👌👍
I very much enjoy your videos, they have genuine atmosphere, covering different aspects of life, and your good nature kind of balances it all out. I like the way you do Bulgaria, it relaxes me. Have you considered doing Greece as well ?
Great video - thank you .
Glad you enjoyed it! 👍😃 Thank you so much for watching and commenting!
As a bulgarian (from varna) i can say this guy is telling actual facts. Not just what he thinks it is. He really has been in Bulgaria a lot of times.
im from Sofia , Bulgaria and u are so good to watch. i like it.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting, it really helps support the channel. 👍👌
Im living two streets above that place where you fixed your trousers :) Nice video :)
Спасибо большое за видео, очень познавательно и вкусно, банница выглядит аппетитно.
Вам спасибо!!! Обожаю баницa особенно когда прямо из духовки
love this video!
Thank you!👍👌
Like your blog. vast coverage & accurate information.....over & above your humanity liked me more... 👍
Wow I have discovered your channel new and your video was really flowing and funny. I'm also living in Burgas as a Turk and Varna seems like same with here. Time to watch other videos :)
Thank you Sarpi for watching...
Bourgas is another great place and I plan on doing more videos about Bulgaria soon... and Bourgas is on the list.
I appreciate the comment and all the best my friend👌👍
Thank you for this video
Next time you have to come to residential areas from late 70's
What the old lady is saying pretty well goes across the world. Only the rich or corrupt hold power and the quality of everything is gone to shit. That and that waitresses skirt is FANTASTIC 🤣 The Macedonian market in my middle of nowhere town in Ohio has a dozen different Feta’s and the Bulgarian is by far the best. Such a different mix of Slav, Greek and Turkish.
Hey Moo,
Thanks for commenting and complimenting the lovely skirt. I have to admit that it really cought my attention too during my coffee.
I am happy you agree with my opinion of the Bulgarian cheese, and how great that you can get it all the way on Ohio.
Thanks for watching mate👍👌
@@J.E.E - Worlds getting smaller all the time.
@@moobutt Well it figures that the Macedonian market has Bulgarian cheese, given the Macedonians were Bulgarians up to 50 years ago. And yes the white cheese is one of the things I miss the most
What Turkish vibe are you getting from Varna? It looks typical Eastern shithole
very chill and nice vibe
Thank you👍👌
great video, would love to see a bulgarian salad recipe video!
Hello Mate... It is amazing and simple and we will arrange that soon.
Fun fact what you call "yogurt" in Bulgaria is called "кисело мляко (kiselo mlqko)" and Bulgaria was actually the place that invented it thanks to bacteria called "Lactobacillus bulgaricus".
I just found you, watched the whole video as a Bulgarian I can say you're right about most of the things you say and they're well said. I enjoyed it, I would suggest you to show the "Rich" part of Bulgaria as you've said it, show the Nature(Mountains,Seaside etc...) Small villages around those places some are very well hidden so to say but are absolute gems and the people you will meet/see there are the one of the many real Bulgarian treasures. If, you haven't done so already.
Time for me to jump to next video on your channel, hasta la vista.
Hello Ivan! Thanks so much for the kind words and for watching my channel... I really appreciate the support and would love to film some more places around Bulgaria! Thanks for the tip 👍👌
Very nice video, well done.
Thank you my friend 👍
Good vlog.. Your good .. Love it..
Yep your right man such great talented people there
I just got this recommended and I live in Varna, Bulgaria. Hope you liked it here. You are welcome back.
Hi my friend, Thank you so much for watching and commenting, it really helps support the channel. 👍👌
Hi! I really loved the video! This is my city! ❤️ Thank you that you showed it in the best way.
I would like to give you an additional information for the opposite Yes/No movements. As you said...we..the bulgarians were 5 centuries under turkish slavery. When the Turkish authorities forced the Bulgarians to accept the Turkish faith, they put knives under their throats so that when they moved their heads left and right for "No", they would cut their own throats. But the Bulgarians were smart and resourceful, so when asked "Do you accept the Turkish faith?", they moved their heads up and down, which actually meant "No"! Thus they managed to save themselves and their faith. ❤️
Стига сте рекламирали тази тъпотия за Да и Не и турското робство. По детски се излагате.

Thanks Justin , great video again , People the World over who work are disadvantaged when it comes to retirement unless they are corrupt or dishonest despite a life times service and experience which sadly is all too often lost Sorry for the rant ! Stay safe and keep the videos coming mate
Cheers mate!
Real shame actually to reach an age and you are forced to keep going!
I like the idea of keeping going, it the being forced to do it that is heartbreaking.
I like the cats 😍
I like the way you reacted of the silly behavior of the first person ,and the explanation of the lady about the previous times ! :)
great vlog keep it up
Cheers mate!👍
Great video. If you like history visit Veliko Tarnovo (The Old Capital) next time when you come to Bulgaria.
Hello Mate.
I have been there many times, but never as a vlogger... So will definitely do that.
Thank you for the advice and for watching 👌👍
Nice start of your Varna series! Any chalga in the next episodes? Ah, and I remember that McDonald's where the D was written in cyrillic script like a 'g'.
Hi Arjen,
Sorry mate for the late comment, but I have been swamped with video edits.
I love Chalga, but this trip had the obvious restrictions, so not too much partying.
Yes it had the Donald's with the g👍👌🤣
@@J.E.E Don't worry for the comments. At this pace of publishing, and with the recognition you will gain, it will be hard for you to keep up to date in the comment section))) By the way, your son does great editing work. My compliments. I have also tons of unpublished footage, but editing and putting subtitles is hard work, I reckon.
You never got to "The Red Rock Cafe" .....worth a visit , and the seamstress is a lovely lady , I went to her a few times , couldn't believe you found her . Lots more to see in Varna , and St Constantine ,St Helena .
Hi Niall,
She is great, and lovely to talk to.
Will be in Varna in a couple of weeks, so will add more content from Bulagria.
Thank you for the suggestions and please let me know if you have any more ideas.
Thank you for watching and commenting 👌👍

Thank you for the compliment and watching my videos.
I hope to bring you many more travel adventures in the future.
All the best👍👌
Where did he speak Russian? I didn’t watch the entire video
he's raving about that breakfast, but it looked pretty minimal in its appeal. no egg, no meat. noticed he gave most of it to stray animals.
Hi Carl,
I am suggesting that when you travel you try something new and local.
I am sure your eggs over easy are delicious with your pancakes and bacon... But not unique and not necessarily more delicious.
As for sharing my breakfast with my pigeon friends and the kittens, well I bought way to much food for a normal person to eat fro breakfast... I wanted to share the different types available with my viewers.
Now I am off to have a full English breakfast!
All the best mate
Amazing city people all.best country
Hi my friend, Thanks so much for watching and coming a long the journey with me👍👌
11:23 The Kashkaval /кашкавал is etymologically related to the south-italian cheese named "Caciocavallo". Very interesting!
Really fascinating how language and culture develops over time.
I did not know that fact, but I love it!
Thank you for sharing👌👍
"Cașcaval" în limbă română. Salutări cordiale din București ! 😎🇷🇴🍺
Yes, it was under an Italian patent and here there was only Kashkaval and white cheese (but in the past they were of high quality)

Hi Iveta.
Will definitely try it next time.
Thanks for your support👍👌
Love the Video.....just found your channel now. Like what you are doing. Showing the behind the scenes. Are you still in Varna or have you moved on to the next place already?

@@ATasteofBulgaria I will look forward to it
Great ❤
Thank you so much!! 👍😃
True storry from Varna - I was having breakfast with a window opened next to me, and a seagull straight up flew in, landed on the table, grabbed something of my plate and left. These guys really don't care about anything
Interesting video. I am thinking about visiting Varna. I find your video useful . You think it gets crowded in varna in july ?
The "yes" and "no" nods are indeed the opposite, but they're also a bit different. For "no" you don't nod, you tilt your head backwards. To say yes, you don't move your face from left to right, you make a wave motion with your head, while your nose points in the same direction.
Respect!!!
Thank you so much my friend, i appreciate the kind comment!! 👍😃
5:05 You got it a bit wrong, but this is common misconception. The head movement is not like you are describing.
For yes, it is not left to right, it is more a "semi-circle" with the head leaning to the left and right. It is not straight angle left-right. It is more of a tilt at 30-45* angle to the shoulders. Have a look at it closely.
For no- there is also a difference - it is not up-down up down like in the west for yes, but it is down to up only once combined with a frowny face;) Which is a slight, but also very distinguishable difference to the yes/no nodes of the western world. Have a close look next time around.
You also saw, that when you tried it didn't work so not all do it like that either;)
Thank you for feeding the Bulgarian cat family :)
I'm from Bulgaria. I am a student in Varna and my apartment was on this very street where this cafe is, says Felix Kanitz. I couldn't believe it when I saw this. But because of kovid, we are already at home and online.
Great town Varna.
Are you happy to be home or do you miss Varna?
@@J.E.E Maybe both, but I miss Varna more..
Love Bulgaria I'm a permanent resident.
Thank you Justin for the valuable info.. ✌️👍☝️
Speaking about the sea gulls, I saw in Istanbul those birds like to follow each and every ferry going out from the ports begging to be fed by the flocks, even inland in the parks around the city, they are just an ignorance pest, which I don't think food are scarce for them over there.. 🤔
The locals do take care of all the stray animals on the streets.
My pleasure mate!
They certainly like their food and will go to any lengths to get a full belly.
The straits are well looked after and well fed, that is very noticeable
Thanks for watching👌👍
I lived in the apartment above Jhivka's workoshop one year ago (when the video was filmed).
Another enjoyable video Justin...I was wondering how many Gypsies live in Sofia? You seem to know Russian,that is plus...
