Travelling Buzz Travelling Buzz is an adventure travel blog about Bulgaria, Europe & beyond – by Maria Stoyanova. For partnerships, reach out to travellingbuzzblog@gmailcom

Maria is a remote work advocate passionate about adventure sports and the tourism industry. Travelling Buzz is a travel blog about adventure travel in Europe. My name is Maria, I’m from Bulgaria and I currently live in Sofia. I started Travelling Buzz in 2013 to help people with first-hand information and tips about the places I visit, mostly in Europe at the time. I didn’t want to share my storie

s 20 times after I return home. So I decided to write about my experiences and those who wanted would read them. With time, I met many people during my travels that didn’t know anything about Bulgaria. Even I didn’t know much about my home country. That’s why I started to write more and more about Bulgaria in order to help more people (and me) realize what a beautiful place it is. My goal is to inspire you to travel more and to be adventurous! There are so many beautiful places you can visit. You just have to make the first big step. I hope to see you around ;)
