Cats, good books, AI, and religious walking in the city of Sofia
Shishman Street is sometimes pedestrian. It is beautiful and I hope it would one day become pedestrian-only, especially given that the main pedestrian area in Sofia is so packed with people that it’s no longer pleasant.
I wish I took more photos. I didn’t suspect anything there is blog-worthy but when scrolling through the camera roll, these two photos surprised me.
This is close to Orlov Most, connecting Yavorov with the Borisova Gradina, right after Victor Hugo street. I don’t know who came up with the idea to turn a unimportant underpass to a piece of art but here we are. A must see.
I used to work not far from this place. Would buy a pizza slice for lunch, sit on a bench, and watch sparrows and pigeons compete for breadcrumbs. Sparrows would always outsmart the pigeons.
Spotted in Sofia, near Vasil Levski stadium.
This isn’t the first time I see vandalized scooters. Why it happens is beyond me but I’ve noticed the people who use them and the people who vandalize them seem to be in the U-18 age group.
For a car-heavy city like Sofia, driving these is too dangerous. I think cars within the city should be banned to make the other types of transportation safer, although I’m not particularly fond of scooters. I had two nearly run over me while crossing on a green light this year alone.
