Interpretation
When I think of Bulgaria, I see autumn and winter holidays, a happy childhood, freedom.
WHITE
Blue water at the golden beach, dense forests of fir trees with wild strawberries, proud mountains and clear lakes.
GREEN
Watermelons and ripe tomatoes, summers with sunsets, hidden villages and red-shingled roofs. Convent. (Hi-)Story in Cyrillic letters.
