night bus to sofia

i was extremely lucky and got a double seat all to myself. slept pretty alright, all things considered. the two border crossings stressed me out a bit because i had forgotten to throw the weed away before boarding the bus, but everything was chill and i finally got my first passport stamps in serbia. i won't count it as visited though.

watching the sun rise over the snowy bulgarian landscape was enjoyed thoroughly. from the first moment of arriving in sofia, i absolutely loved the city. people are super nice (and as i found out later on bumble they also look great), the snow-capped mountains are in the backdrop and everything has like a soviet flair to it. here's also the first time where i'm having trouble reading sings. it wasn't a problem a year ago, i'll just have to refresh my cyrillic.

i did some forum research and found a great rave on saturday, so i think i'll stay for a bit, which, for the first time, doesn't hurt because the hostel is only 15 лв/ 8€ a night.Lue lisää
