I’m not dead, just busy. The house has been ringing with the sounds of Aussie accents..which has been very nice and a lot of fun. The last of the guests headed off this morning and as soon as time permits, I will step into my time machine and go back to when Kerrie was here [...]

And so it is, having torn all my hair out and developed a really serious drinking problem, that I come to the end of five days of the most frustrating work I’ve ever done but the result is this : www.southerncrossaccommodationbg.wordpress.com/ I do still need to knock a few rough edges off and find out [...]

For a house that’s basically been closed down for the last two years, I managed to get a few guests come through in the last few months…some knew me, some didn’t, some had been here before and for some it was the first time. Each and every one bought a little ray of sunshine into [...]

yes indeed…the time has come… At 6am tomorrow I’m getting on a plane and going home. Home to my house, my beautiful dogs and my Bulgarian friends.

It’s with great trepidation that I poke my head over the parapet, the first time for a long time. It’s been such a long time and so much has happened, that you’ll have to bear with me while I try and get the last few months in some kind of order. It all started with the [...]
