Hi folks
Looking to take over a guest house in Bulgaria.
Anyone know of any economic, cultural, legal, social etc., reasons why this may be a no-no?
Cheers for the heads up in advance
Ade

it helps a lot if you speak the local language. You need to have a local trusted contact. Beware of the gypsies they steal a lot.
on the upside, the country has a lot of hidden gems. I love it from the bottom of my heart despite its many imperfections.

Its not just the Gypsies people need to beware of, in fact Just as many Bulgarians you need to beware of too.. :) Having said that we have employed Roma Gypsies and we have found them to be very hard workers, There are good and bad in every race, we get to know them before making blanket decisions or judgements. There is good and bad in every race. Make your decisions on the work that people do not on what Race they come from.

Hi
thanks for responses.
not really bothered about issues surrounding ethnicity or nationality etc., people are people wherever they are. Indeed I wouldn't be considering moving to bulgaria if i thought such stuff was relevant.
The kind of feedback i was hoping for concerned any less generally know issues. Such as issues about foreign ownership, local taxes, by-laws, attitudes towards this kind of business from locals. Is it treading on the feet of cultural norms for example?
My main objective wherever i live is to try to get on with the locals, any business is doomed if there is likely to be local objection
anyway, cheers for the feedback so far..
regards
