The cultivation of the Rosa Damascena and its production in Kazanlak began shortlyRead More →

And wondering about which experiences to share, I thought that I shared my Iceland experiences in two of my previous posts (First view of Iceland and Blue Lagoon) but did not write on my experiences about the Icelandic capital, Reykjavik. So here is some of my experiences and wonderful memories from Reykjavik. The capital of Iceland, Reykjavik, is the biggest city in Iceland and this is where most of the country’s population of 330000 people reside.  There are innumerable things to seeRead More →
