Sofia by night is a rather limited experience. Few major streets are decently lighted; smaller ones are dark and uninviting.

The morning didn’t bring anything new. But it’s good to have friends, talking to them helps put things into new prospective and move forward. And that’s exactly what happened. So, I think I’ll go & have some sleep now. I have another post brewing in mind, but it’ll have to wait till the morning.
