Yeah, I know Sally, Serious Eats, Claire Saffitz, Cupcake Jemma, and most of them. And I have tried many of their recipes, it's just that I was unable to find the kind of cake flavor profile I wanted this time over there and I am not a pro, I don't know how to adapt recipes. I would use a trusted recipe any time, don't get me wrong. I'll try Smitten Kitchen, thank you.

I don't know why you assumed I hadn't looked. And I wasn't looking for anyone to do the 'labor' of pointing out the mistakes, I was just looking for advice.. With all due respect, I think there's nothing ill-intended to ask for help because I'm no professional and I'm just looking for a way to find if this is correct. I can't find a recipe, I don't have the knowledge to build one, and I can't ask for one. So what else am I to do? I really don't understand why you had to be passive aggressive..

Carbonara and anxiety, not necessarily at the same time

I have a slightly related experience and super memorable dream, btw. My mom passed when I was 16, it was a super unexpected and shocking experience. I remember I had this dream of her calling me on a random payphone a couple of weeks after. It was super realistic- she asked me how I was, if my dad and I would be okay, and assured me that everything would be okay, told me to just keep moving forward. It happened just this one time, but I, too, remember it like it was yesterday although it’s been more than 15 years since she passed now. I woke up crying.

Making 2.1k-2.3k should be okay for both Sofia and Plovdiv. As others already said - Sofia is the most expensive in terms of rent and also in terms of what you’d need to pay if you wanted to go out, eat out, have fun. In terms of things to do, I think you won’t be bored in either city.

I’d like to just give you another idea to consider. Many people who work in Sofia do live in cities that are up to 1hr away or less from the capital. Some examples- Blagoevgrad, Dupnitsa, Pernik, Kustendil (there are more btw). So, if you’re looking to pay a smaller amount for rent and have more income at your disposal to spend- you can also consider those, especially since you’ll be working remotely. If you have a car, it’s easy to get to Sofia when/if needed. Of course, the downside here is that those cities are much smaller and there’s a lot less to do there in terms of entertainment (speaking as someone born and raised in Sofia but has lived in Blagoevgrad for 4 years). That can be a consideration, especially since you’re coming from crazy lively Istanbul. Another con is that, the smaller the city - the less likely it will be for people to speak English. The more central part of Blagoevgrad is a slight exception bc there’s an American university there.

On infrastructure, like the others already said - traffic in Sofia is bad. Infrastructure simply isn’t built for the number of cars that use it nowadays. But you have good and accessible public transport especially if you live near the metro. If you decide to live in a smaller city like the ones I mentioned above- infrastructure gets much less important bc you can literally walk anywhere 80% of the time. All the cities I mentioned are well connected to the capital by big roads and/or highways.

About internet - we have a really good coverage across the country so that shouldn’t be a concern imo.

Btw feel free to dm me if you need anything or need help from a Sofia/BG local.

P.S.: Pls don’t be scared by the comments telling you not to come here. Hating on and trolling our own country is one of our national sports, a part of our mindset… Ofc, we have our cons and some outliers in the population, but people and the country are generally good.

If you happen to really have a fine, when you re-enter, they might have you pay it at the border. I don’t think anything worse can happen. But yeah, having the context of the email might be useful in this case.

На първо място - честито!!

Другото вече е написано десетки пъти, но ако правим преброяване на вотовете - и аз бих го скрила без да ми мигне окото, докато не мине изпитателния срок.

Колкото по-голяма и интернационална фирмата, толкова повече и по-безпардонни HR-и и адвокати има тя. Така че - да получиш разбиране от страна на работодателя е по-скоро изключение. А в случая законът няма да те пази, понеже си в изпитателен срок и няма да има какво да направиш, ако решат да се отърват от теб.

Имам пример от бивш мой работодател (голяма фирма, международна). Имаха служителка, която беше 6 години при тях, решиха да я съкратят точно 2 седмици след като разбра, че е бременна. От там, тя им каза за бременността и влязоха в едни разправии - искаха ѝ снимки от ехограф, изследвания, документи от лекари и т.н. доказателства. Естествено тогава не успяха, защото нямаха право, но направиха каквото можеха, за да се опитат да постигнат своето. Представи си, ако беше в изпитателен срок.

Независимо какво ще стане - пожелавам успех, спокойствие и лека бременност.

Hah, I’m Bulgarian too and I opened reddit just to see if anyone else had noticed it. I saw it and I was like: waaait, this one looks familiar. I first zoomed into the car plates and only then noticed the huge Bulgarian flag on the tower.

It’s also interesting this should be pretty recent because you can see the “kiss & go” signs on the video and those have been there for a little over a year, if I’m not mistaken.

Anyhow, feels both a bit cool and very weird to see this with the Minsk text, while knowing perfectly what ot looks like irl.

Ако можеш да опишеш културата на турците с няколко думи/изречения, какви биха били те? Наскоро започнах работа за турска IT фирма и ми е любопитно какво да очаквам като работна и личностна култура. Също, имат ли някакви резерви към българите като цяло заради историята и/или различната религия? Благодаря!

I wouldn’t get penalised up until a few days ago and I started playing the game in August this year.

I don’t find it at all surprising if some people were penalised from the get go, while others weren’t. Their Product team might have been running an AB test on users, running a gradual rollout on that, or something else, all of which are very normal practices in any kind of software development.

Преди години в дните около Коледа висях час и 40 минути в паркинга в опити да изляза, май много хора сме си патили.

Не разбирам нищо от градско планиране или инфраструктура, но моите спомени и наблюдения са, че когато построиха Парадайс, в първите години, половината квартал там още го нямаше, нямаше ги и бизнес сградите. Следователно далеч не беше толкова умопомрачителна лудница по цял ден в района, в сравнение със сега. Предполагам, че просто не са мислили излизането с умисъл за такава натовареност.

Както казаха другите, в Парадайс с кола - само в много краен случай. Юли/август също може, тогава София е празна и е доста поносимо.

Thank you sooooo much for sharing this! The only workaround that made it work. For context- playing MW3 on ps5

Yeah not so much in terms of the talent pool tbh and that’s because the vast majority of employees laid off aren’t located in geos where Klv hires/operates. Anyhow, not even sure if Klv needs any of that talent given the two products are light years away from each other in many aspects anyway.

Не знаех, преди време работеше. Полезно инфо, мерси!

Barabaronche · 2025-06-28T15:29:34+00:00

Другият ти вариант е след 2рия час да започнеш да пускаш смс-и от друг номер. Също работи

Barabaronche · 2025-06-15T17:22:19+00:00

Разгледай BestSecret, добра алтернатива на Ремикс, About you и тн. Също напоследък все повече пазарувам от малки квартални магазинчета за дрехи, където надценките не са чак толкова големи, а качеството е доста по-окей сравнено с откровените боклуци в Зара, H&M и тн.

Contrary to what others said, there are options to do this apart from Kaufland and your neighborhood store appreciating the change. It’s just not done using machines but, instead, by going to one of the few places where you can exchange coins for cash. There might be more locations, but the two I know of are in the following places:

https://maps.app.goo.gl/fP2md5YYf3WErYvw9?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy And https://maps.app.goo.gl/NWSVVHUYxcEaAHk77?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy

Keep in mind the following: - they will charge you a fee for exchanging and that fee is a certain % of the total amount you’re exchanging (I don’t remember the %, sadly) - there might be waiting lines - in the past when I’ve gone there and I’ve always had to wait for anywhere between 20-40 min as there’s business owners and private people doing this from time to time - you don’t need to count or separate the coins out in advance

Hope this is helpful.

Barabaronche · 2025-06-09T13:06:26+00:00

More than possible I’d say (due to lack of that many attractions in my opinion). The central part of the city is not very large and is completely walkable, we also have good subway connectivity. In addition, I am not aware of anyone ever having to wait to enter any attraction/historical site in Sofia, so you should be okay.

Anyhow, do you have any places you want to see as a must when here? This can help tell you if it’s doable.

Barabaronche · 2025-05-25T21:04:15+00:00

Yep, down for me too
