Sad to be leaving Plovdiv, Bulgaria.
Ancient city with Roman and other archeological ruins intermingled with modern commerce.
Also good food and a relaxing atmosphere. A place to come back to…

It would be nice to hear that Fulham have been speaking to other potential managers - but we seem to react to rather than shaping events. #fulhamfc #football
This is truly shameful….

I am excited to have made it to Constanta, and my first ever sight of the Black Sea.
About to indulge in a slap up seafood dinner with this harbour view.
Thank you CFR - Romanian trains are great! - If a bit slow ;-)

New book and a cold beer in a shady park in Bucharest. What’s not to like…
Off to Valiko Tarnovo in Bulgaria tomorrow - two changes so wish me luck!

My wife knows me well - hidden in my backpack for my birthday, a second hand copy of Barbara Kingsolver’s Homeland; a short story collection. Good to read on the train across Romania today.

Istanbul is a world city, expensive, noisy and chaotic.
Had fun, enjoyed Guhane Park and using public transport ferry to cross the Bosphorus.
Looking forward to sleeper train to Plovdiv in Bulgaria tonight. And a more relaxing few days.

Brasov had been busy today with its marathon and rally car festival.
I chose the art gallery, a hike up Tampa (where there is a Hollywood style sign), and an early tea on my balcony with a view. Perhaps life is a bowl of cherries?

Exploring Sibiu - or Hermannstadt: - first a guided tour of the Saxon old town - then a long walk to the amazing Astra Museum park of lovingly recreated houses from Romania’s past.
There’s an unfinished Ceausescu concrete monstrosity hiding in one photo.

Hello, I’m Julia - today, the National Park has handed their socials over to me to talk about my experience of bags of rubbish, broken glass, and empty cans left scattered where I live. This is damaging, dangerous, and avoidable. If you're visiting, please respect the Dales 🙏
