Final video of our Bulgaria travel series, we finish our hiking in the Bulgarian mountains. After this, we go and try some Bulgarian food before a travel day back to Sofia. The food in Bulgaria really surprised us, especially mishmash and shopska salad. Worth a try if you are in Bulgaria. We didn't get a chance to explore Sofia as Emma was sick from our travel day but we loved our time in Bulgaria. It was not what we were expecting but would love to return as it passed all expectations. Bansko, in particular, is a hiking paradise and would love to try it in the ski season.

Welcome to the official Travel Beans KZbin channel! On this channel, you’ll find a variety of travel and vlog content, in which you’ll see us in places like Thailand, Japan, USA, Slovenia, and more.
In 2017 we left home with just £500 in our bank account and a dream to make a sustainable travel lifestyle happen! We are now living our dream as digital nomads and want to inspire you to create your own story, whatever it may be!
After 5 years of aimless, yet enjoyable, backpacking around the world we found ourselves in New York City battling with depression. At this point, we decided to go home and confront this problem head-on. After 6 tough months at home we decided to go away again, but this time with a goal in mind.. to turn travel into a lifestyle.
Our time spent battling depression has influenced our outlook on life dramatically! We are now traveling the world in search of what makes us happy. In our vlogs, we talk openly and honestly about our travel experiences, the digital nomad life and depression. We hope our videos can help to inspire you to create a life that makes you happy!

I'd strongly recommend against swimming in the lakes of Rila or Pirin mountains. They are protected areas. Not only you will be facing dislikes bordering with disgust from people around you, but perhaps even reported and fined by the gov. The places you've been are pristine and beautiful, because people actually care not to trash them . Although the commy generation of people were trashy, Bulgarians have always had great respect of nature and its beauty.

[@salanicus]

What a stunning getaway location. Love it. True, does have a Lord of the Rings feel. Nice food spread :) But sorry about the illness. Thanks for this one, James and Kim

[@TravelBeans]

Thanks you guys!

[@dayanbalevski4446]

The other "salad" you called it with the roasted red peppers is actually not a salad but a breakfast/lunch/dinner meal called "Mishmash" and it is basically our version of scrambled eggs, but much better :D

[@ozonbg]

Pirin mountain is a national park, it's forbidden by regulations to swim in the lakes.

[@TravelwithTommy]

Wow a gorgeous place to go hiking there guys !! Such a wonderful scenery of the mountains and lake. Watching your video make me want to travel to Bulgaria. Love your video.

[@TravelBeans]

We definitely recommend Bansko.. it was so peaceful and beautiful. We wish we had stayed longer!

[@TravelwithTommy]

Thanks for the recommendation.

[@crstothard]

Al, thanks indeed for getting deep into the poo situation. I come here for the science! LOL! Greetings from NYC!

[@DDIII3]

Fantastic! The music was great, relaxing. Great intro and outro and you got Beans Out in there too. Awesome job Beans!

[@holdthebananas2525]

Love the new video, Beans! We never realized that Bulgaria is so beautiful! Charlie is a wilderness survival educator and a certified tracker. As far as that scat goes, we think you are lookin' at some horse poo. Don't be discouraged, though, because horse scat and bear scat can commonly be mistaken due to the frequent grass content in bear scat. There are outlying situations of course, but for bear scat, you should look for what we like to call an, "amorphous pile" with relatively poor digestion--you can clearly see precisely what the bear was eating, because much of it is still intact. Thanks for the new video! We'll be waiting for more! -Charlie and Lexie

[@TravelBeans]

So I guess we should be looking for like, human heads and things in their nuggets? 😬😂 Thanks so much for the info!! Also, wilderness survival educator has to be one of the coolest job descriptions I've ever heard..

[@planebreach]

Sofia has a pretty good hiking spot. Next time if you are around go see the Vitosha Stone River

[@zaharipantev9389]

I hope you are coming back to Bulgaria for more positive emotions. Beautiful videos Xxxx

[@sunflowermunch6763]

Hi again I really LOVED your vids btw I'm that Bulgarian/Bansko person. I wanted to say that I subscribed and also in Bulgaria people are LIKE SO disciplined and kind. (:

[@shaheershujaat2223]

Wow Alex and Emma both of you are looking very nice beautiful amazing travel vlog well done 😊😊❤️❤️👍👍

[@vladgogulancea345]

4:35 - 4:39 Me in my mind:"hmm, what an unusual fade/cut.... ohh, you were falling" Stan Shunpike: "what'd you fall over for?"

[@Diana-lo6cx]

You guys are so cute! Glad you feel better Emma!

[@TravelBeans]

Thanks Diana!

[@andyjones68]

Love having more beans vids to watch, no more waiting a week :-)

[@TravelBeans]

Thanks! We're so happy to be able to make more than one a week these days.. hopefully in the future we can do even more :)

[@bobguenther6658]

Love the Beans! Glad youre you’re better Emma! You looked pretty ill, but it was a great video!

[@mimi64231]

I love Bulgaria. All the best from Poland.

[@JamesPhotoLX]

Such a beautiful place guys and it did look so tempting to swim in that lake. Can't beat the lack of people and the tranquility. Really love the way you're presenting these Vlogs and especially the reward at the end🍻😁. Bye the way loved the music, where do you get your music? I'm looking for an affordable source for copyright free tunes.

[@TravelBeans]

Thanks James! We use epidemic sound for our music.. they've got a ton of great stuff on there. Think there are a bunch of similar websites out there though so it's worth shopping around

[@tonys1636]

A prevention for motion sickness is to munch on a couple of ginger nut biscuits before travelling or even some crystallised ginger.

[@vasilzahariev5741]

It's actually forbidden to swim in that lake and you may be fined, if you do swim in it. Bear Grylls swam into one of the Seven Rila Lakes and ate a frog, he filmed it all and was fined 5000 BGN, which is €~2500.

[@TravelBeans]

wow.. that would explain why nobody was in them! Thanks for the info..

[@PUMPADOUR]

She looks like exact copy of the poster girl she stands in front of. Very interesting! At 10:41

[@martinachristov926]

Lake Tahoe, Emerald Bay - the colour of the lake

[@beeohel6787]

It was sad to see you ill Emma but I am glad you are happy and better again another beautiful video love from 🇮🇪☘️💕

[@TravelBeans]

Thanks so much! We enjoyed our time there so much.. such a beautiful place

[@fakharkhan2617]

Please come & visit Pakistan; you will not regret if you are nature lovers, especially after seeing Northern Areas of Pakistan . . Happy Traveling !

[@riverbendtube]

You two are simply the best travel vlogers! Love every episode 😍

[@TravelBeans]

Aw Thanks so much Kennith! :)

[@MichaelcookeSUFC]

Never have I ever used travel sickness as an excuse for hangover haha naughty beans hope you are feeling better now chick sympathy as always for Alex the leg end :) missed you both big lots many many more beanny travels please :) COOKEOUT!!!

[@shree9898]

hi, scenary nd drone shots are just amazing in this bulgaian hike.....i am a new subscriber ...i loved & watched most of your past vlogs last week...beautiful shots,places ; things i like the most about you are that you guys are so cool,jolly,simple,living on budget,showing realities of full time travellers,not showing off ,affectionate toward nature and open to new experiences...lots of love and best wishes 💖

[@TravelBeans]

Thank you so much! And welcome to the Bean Team! We hope you continue to enjoy our videos :) thanks again

[@YN2O2T]

The food looked interesting as in I’d try it. Well maybe not the salad. The egg and cheese thing looked good and the pork and fatty sausage. OMG!! Alicia would like the salad. Oh and the beer! You didn’t say anything about it! Looked thirst quenching!

[@tankerkaya]

What if Alex put the BEAN I mean the bun in the oven ? Seriously Emma,you should do a pregnancy test and make a video to share the result with us since I think that much motion sickness is not normal combining with fatigue and constant tiredness would be a good idea.

[@TravelBeans]

I can confirm that this is not the case haha. I had some kind of virus for a couple of days that made me really sick. I have recovered now...

[@ogiecruz8063]

Emma you sound you have a cold. Get a good rest

[@abbodalghamdi9164]

very beautiful

[@ilovecakes2023]

So Alex has fallen here and England too 😂😂 and we needed a eating bit with Emma too now 😊😊

[@amixterfe4008]

I liked hiking also nce video @TravelBeans I also created a channel for entertainment I'm one of your fan love you both

[@emilkiskinov3316]

👍👍👍

[@waytooready3898]

What was the name of the restaurant you've eaten guys? Great vid between!

[@dedcharafdin]

it was old food of days ago ;-) i got the same in bulgaria (but only 1 time)

[@tsope1]

iam from Israel and we have pom-bar snack but under a different name. love them. and btw iam subscribed so you have at least one subscribers from Israel ;-) , love from Israel

[@chrisdickinson3168]

That was some bear heavy content without actually featuring a bear. Am glad you answered the question do bears shit in the woods, no they shit by lakes, who knew. Finally is it just me or did the bit of Emma telling us about her coach sickness look like she was stood infront of a poster of herself posing?

[@christin6791]

Swimming is absolutely forbidden ☺️

[@knanmie]

Love the fatty jingle, wish I had a jingle to excuse my greatly growing belly. As your main Antarctican subscriber, damn, pom bears are basically the only sustinence that anyone needs, and a viral source of happiness in this bleek tundra. P.S. knew Al would like some meaty sausage...

[@jasonpetersharpe]

You 👩🏻 remind me of my wife in almost every single way. And i think 💭 YOU ARE GORGEOUS AND BEAUTIFUL! -j

[@CostiTaby]

What’s next? Romania?

[@stephanieb3915]

We don't have pombear's in Canada

[@motivate-today]

You found bear poo but not Pooh Bear

[@phoenyx93]

Since you were asking for some underrated travel locations I can, in general, recommend Thuringia in Germany. There are loads of beautiful forests and nature and hikes. Especially the "Thuringian Forest" which is a mountain range including Germany's oldest long-distance trail "Rennsteig" on the ridge. Many of the towns around there also have quite nice buildings, and make a good starting point for the hikes, e.g. Tambach-Dietharz or Schmalkalden. As interesting cities with amazing nature around I could also recommend Jena and Eisenach, which are not too far away.

[@rothoveb]

I don't believe that Pom Bear is sold in the US, at least I've never seen it but it might be available in some specialty import stores that carry foods/snacks from other countries (of course it is available from Amazon...with free shipping from England no less!). I had to look up what you meant by moreish. To be honest I originally looked up moorish because I was already aware of that word but thought maybe it had another meaning in England. Vocabulary, natural wonders, food and poo...your videos are so educational!

[@TravelBeans]

We use the word morish a lot in the UK, it's a great word! That's interesting to hear that it's not so commonly used in the US.. Thanks so much for the comment and for watching! :D

[@nadetostaykova]

Hi rothoveb! You can find the Pom Bear snack in many grocery stores around Chicago. There are different flavors as well, such as ketchup, sour cream & onion. My favorite one is with cheese and I have only found it in Malincho Euro Market. They also offer online shopping within the U.S., so I believe you can order if you want to try it. ;)

[@nikos1890]

what is the name of this lake ?

[@alexandrakostosraskey8780]

Nope, No Pom Bears in the states

[@WAYAWAYWithAsh]

Can we do a “let’s get fat with Alex and Ash” segment when we’re together???!???

[@TravelBeans]

Umm.. YES. I'm sure there's a ton of british classics we need to introduce you guys to..

[@RositsaPetrovarjp7]

Please indicate where you are..you are very far from Sofia...it is not helpful for people who would be interested in visiting those places. Bulgaria has many mountains and you can start many different treks from Bansko.

[@Bonecrusher650]

You are not allowed to swim in the lakes in any part of Pirin national park. If go swimming you will danger the lake’ s habitat. All of you tourists should know it before go hiking there.

[@bbahadir1]

Friends Did you miss Künefe ? Please provide the address we will send by cargo :) Hi from Istanbul

[@TravelBeans]

Thanks so much but we did have künefe in Istanbul.. it's in one of our past videos. We LOVED it! 😋

[@bbahadir1]

@@TravelBeans Maybe you miss it, I asked for it. :)

[@ptrs559]

Emma, looks like you had the stomach flu. You needed Zofran. The pills the pharmacy gave you didn’t stop your puking but probably the strongest they could give you without a prescription.

[@TravelBeans]

Thanks Mike.. it was definitely some kind of stomach flu/virus - had a fever and everything. Also, once I managed to get google translate to work, I found that the tablets she gave me were herbal ones for travel sickness - no wonder it didn't make any difference! Oh well, better now! Thanks for watching Mike :)

[@ptrs559]

@@TravelBeans Emma, those pills MIGHT help motion sickness but do nothing for gastroenteritis which it appears you had. Glad you are over it. We want to fo to Bulgaria soon.

[@randyherbrechtsmeier4796]

Was it the Crap ya ate? Hope Ya Feel Better Kiddo. Get some Rest. I like to see You two giggling. At least Alex gots some Real Food

[@Kevinn1953]

How dare you to call our loved Pombären French? Sure they are German 😡😂

[@TravelBeans]

haha oops!

[@computertennis]

Guys if you like hiking mavrovo national park in Macedonia is perfect for that, or closer to Skopje check out matka canyon. And please refer to Macedonia as Macedonia and not north Macedonia All the best

[@ptrs559]

computertennis didn’t the Macedonian parliament approve the name change six months ago? ( to north Macedonia)

[@timw7841]

so he's eating bear snacks the whole video, then he comes across some bear sh%t in the wilderness. And not a single mention of the connection between the two events? not a single bear/bare pun? unsubscribe!
