Blackberries

Found this in Sofia. First time I see anything resembling blackberries in my area.

I spent years of my childhood in Stara Zagora where blackberries are common. I liked the blackberry jam my grandmother made.

WordCamp Sofia 2024

I joined WordCamp Sofia 2024 this weekend by responding to the call for organizers.

WordCamp Sofia will be held on 24th of November in Sofia Tech Park.

I’ve been out of touch with the local community for years. My last WordCamp where I was part of the team was WordCamp Europe 2018 in Belgrade. Wanted to do Varna 2019 but it was cancelled due to Covid, and never returned to the WordCamp work after that. Sadly, I even missed the WCEU in Athens, which is reachable by car from Sofia.

I’m thankful that the organizers welcomed me to the team. I hope I didn’t forget how this type of work is done and will be able to help. It’s been awhile.

Bean soup

It’s been awhile 🙂 I post photos of the bean soup that’s sold in the Cherni Vrah shelter as a mark of achievement that I managed to get there one more time.

The mountain was moist, slippery and foggy today. It rained a bit and I even had a chance to walk in hail for about a minute or two. Thankfully, no thunders. Found some berries.

Build a fountain and they’ll come

It rained today, the kids needed things, and I only managed to have a walk in the evening. The park was empty. It was kind of depressing, except for this fountain that spread light and color. I hope it serves some purpose other than me noticing it in the early evening.
