Drinks & Nightlife
A small hood bar, with some kind of an artistic atmosphere. Sometimes there is a live piano, turning the place into a small Piano bar.
Note: Late Nights is marked, but I am not sure until what time the bar servers customers. It varies, but it could be till later on weekends.

A 7 min walk from the apartment, and a great park for walks among other people and nice relaxing atmosphere. Good for running in the mornings. However, there is a small park, with almost no visitors and the entrance in 1 min from the apartment. it is literally like your backyard big private garden park. Also good for running a few laps in the morning, as it is not such a big park, but considerably large, if used for our back yard:)

Getting Around
You can rent a car, get a taxi(keep in mind that there may be fake taxis. The real company operating Sofia Airport is called "OK Supertrans". There are some fakes squeezing between called 'OK Eksprestrans". Beware, as the stickers are very similar! The usual rate from Sofia Airport to my apartment, depending on traffic is around 6EUR, or 12 to 14BGN)
