Bergwelt Bulgariens

24. July 2008 | de

Die letzten drei Tage sind wir durch die Berge Bulgariens nach Osten gefahren. Dabei ist uns die Bergwelt Bulgariens immer mehr ans Herz gewachsen. Kleine Strässchen winden sich durch das Mittelgebirge. Es gibt kaum Verkehr dafür eine wunderschöne Landschaft. Manchmal erinnert sie an den Schwarzwald, manchmal ans Tessin, manche Felszinnen an die Dolomiten. Je weiter wir nach Osten kommen desto mediterraner wird die Landschaft. Dunkle Tannenwälder gehen in niederwüchsiges Eichengebüsch über. Aus Pferden werden Esel, aus Kirchen Moscheen. Anstatt Sonnenblumen wird Tabak angebaut.

So there are no bears (so far), however we did read a sign that says there are wild boars. Which are in fact nastier in my opinion. I mean bears MAY leave you alone, but don’t boars gouge you to death for fun?

We find the perfect camping site, and I do mean perfect (again). Patrick goes off to find wood. I am the happy go lucky girl sitting there typing away so that when we find internet I can just pop in my stories with no time required.

Until I hear snorting and rustling.

Patrick returns to find the battery dead and me perched on top of my motorcycle – ready to burn away, run over, or fall to my gorged death. Whatever fate awaited.

The wild piggy never did return.
