Sofia

Sofia is a city with both good and bad aspects, but many people find it interesting. It is safe, with many parks to enjoy, especially if you like nature. The nightlife is lively because of the students and expats, but it can be expensive, especially in popular bars. If you live here, you will see that while rent is cheap and the internet is very fast and reliable (about $20 a month for good speeds!), the food quality can vary.

For getting around, it is fairly easy, and you will find many people who speak English, which is helpful.
