Varna
Bulgaria's Black Sea capital. Beach city living on a Bulgarian cost of living.
Relaxed seaside city with one of the longest beach promenades in Europe. Big BPO and multilingual employers, dirt-cheap living and 6 months of beach weather a year.
BPOs and shared services concentrate around the city centre and Asparuhovo. Big German, Dutch, Nordic, French and Italian-speaking communities.
Bus and trolleybus network covers the city; everything central is walkable. A monthly pass is around 50 BGN (€25).
Sea Garden beach bars in summer, Greek Quarter for cocktails, and late-night clubs along the Golden Sands strip in season.
Fresh Black Sea fish at Staromorsko, Bulgarian classics at Mr. Baba on the harbour, brunch at Mom's, and brilliant seasonal seafood throughout summer.
Swim at the Sea Garden beach, sail from the marina, hike the Madara Plateau, and ferry day-trips up the coast to Balchik and Kaliakra.
