    Hi Sergio 🙂 Thanks for the video, I'm currently staying there and was wondering how to find the Bansko Street Dogs asso location? I've been to the one pinned on Google maps ans there was nothing there. I contacted them but they didn't reply to me.

    where is God in all of this? its all drinking and eating and mindless entertainment but what about God? this nomad lifestyle you promote is Godless … Eat and Drink for tomorrow we dine in hell? God said if you are not gathering with me you are against me, what shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his soul?

    Hey guys! Can any local tell me more about the electric bills during the winter time. I’m interested of buying a small apartment in Bansko, it’s simply beautiful but I’ve heard a lot of negative comments about high electric bills. If anyone knows more please let me know! Thank you for the amazing video

    Bro! nunca pense que iba a ver el video de principio a fin! una vez fui a Bansko en el invierno y me parecio un paraiso! Yo soy de Venezuela y mi esposa es Bulgara, estoy emocionado de que en mi pueblo favorito de Bulgaria, podre conseguir toda esta gente interesante de todas partes del mundo, ademas estoy muy decepcionado del mundo laboral y mi plan es irme al mundo digital. Ahora estoy en España pero en los proximos meses nos mudaremos a Bansko, no sabes el impacto que me dejaste con tu video, no puedo esperar mas!

    Always people who come from the US amaze me with their physical strength but in the same time I feel so bad for them…as this guy is Mexican/American reality in those places for a man is very harsh…unless you don't have a big biceps and look like a turkey is a high chance you will be bullied or even get killed…!

    Super detailed and enjoyable video, amigo. Looks like a mini movie. You should be paid for every second by our stupid and useless Ministry of Tourism. Respect! I hope your video reaches even more views because you did a very good job promoting our country because we are very tired of banal and negative etiquettes on an almost daily basis.
    Edit: Your video has even more views than Gabriel's one on Bansko! 😀
