Hi everyone. My husband and I are in the dreaming stage just now ... we haven't planned anything yet nor done any research but we really fancy living off grid in a forest in Bulgaria. We are thinking somewhere near Vidin. Any advice would be welcome.

Go for your dream! Vidin is near the Romanian border so it an easy drive in. There is some breathtaking countryside too. We are 6 months here and going off grid. Things I would consider. We're on the Pleven/Veliko Tarnovo border so in the Danubian Plains. We have not been able to drive on national roads for 2 days (government led) let alone our own village roads. It was minus 15 this morning and friends of ours have been 17 hours without electric and water as have many villages. If you guys are get up and go and ready for an adventure go for it. We haven't regretted it one single bit. It is a fantastic way to go off grid or self sufficient and the Bulgarians are so kind and helpful even if they love to stare! Rightmove Bulgaria has properties all over Bulgaria from many agents. Why not start there and then work in to local agents in areas you like? If you are Facebookers join the local Facebook page and get a feel for what other ex pats are saying about the area. Love them or hate them they are living here. Maybe Friends of Vratsa https://www.facebook.com/groups/1457094967909345/ Good luck!
