Hello folks,

Not much has been happening over here since before the pandemic and it’s not just writer’s block.

I’ve been a little more active on Instagram, but even there I’ve mostly limited myself to occasional stories (and at least archiving those in highlights) to briefly document what I’ve been up to. I feel the way we share (or the way we’re being nudged to share, ahem) has changed so much lately and short-form video has never been my preferred method of expression. I was never meant to be a TikTok or IG reel star, for good or bad. Not that I hate video, it’s just that at heart I’m more of a writer and photographer myself.

At the same time I would love a more personal and direct connection to my audience (you guys!) than my blog’s previous fact-focused format allowed. So I’ve decided to give it a go with a newsletter/blog hybrid with a more personal touch. Meet The Kashkaval Digest!

Expect monthly updates (no promises!) still dedicated to life and travel in Bulgaria and the Balkans, to regional culture, nature, food and experiences, but a bit less orderly and unpolished. Opinions expressed are my own.

So yeah, subscribe if you feel like it and let’s give this a go!

Hvala,

Todor
