A favorite quote from Bulgraia Blue Guide's, James Pettifer:
"...Bulgarians are generally broad-minded, moderately hedonistic and tolerant."
He refers to family and relationships, but I'd say the Bulgarian live-let-live (have a rakia, lose the top, park on the highway if there's a phone call to take) spirit runs through more.
Walking the eastern sea-edge of Sozopol's old town one evening glanced down (pretty light on the beach) and spot these guys.
If they were aware of how vividly, symbolically, eve-affirmingly picaresque they were, they didn't let on.
They never looked up from beers or game.
C - toasting Bulgaria, though sadly not from a table amidst the evening-tide.
