One of the few Anelia songs I still need to add to my collection. Will do soon! In the meantime you can browse through hundreds of chalga and other Bulgarian music videos here.

Blue Bulgaria is my contemplative guide to Bulgaria. This wonderful country is truly a hidden gem in South East Europe: it has pristine white sand beaches, three mountain ranges, Europe's largest river, and, last but not least, thousands of historical landmarks from the neolithic, Thracian, Greek and Roman antiquity as well as from the Ottoman period.
