Joined Atlas Obscura in 2016

I am an American who married a Bulgarian and thus found that she had married a new language, culture, history, cuisine, and more. Bulgaria has been part of my experience my entire adult life. I’ve lived there, I’ve traveled extensively there, and I’ve had the tremendous good fortune to see it through unimaginable changes. I’d like to give something back by turning people’s attention, even for a little bit, to a country worth knowing better – Bulgaria.
