Hi,
I'm john, my wife is aileen and we have one son aged 9 called daniel, used to be a member of this site three or four years ago but couldn't remember my username etc. so i'm starting again as a new user.
we have been going to Bulgaria since 1986 or 87 must have been around 15 times, was always sunny beach or golden sands, with the odd weekend in Sofia, i don't like the big resorts now so we just head to varna and use it as a base to see some of the other great places in this great country, we occasionally take a holiday in italy too.
recognise a few of the regulars on here from another site, like Baldur, tanjette and Patka/Peter of york, i hope to be able to help with some questions if i can!
Great to be back :tup

Welcome back John!

Perhaps if you search for some of the topics you may have posted in previously, you may recognise your old username?

Hi,
I have already made a few posts but here we go:
My name is Aimi, I am 18, although my teenage years are flying past and I will be 19 in August. My finace, Dave will be showing face too, he is 20, 21 in August.
We are the kind of people who dont really go on holiday to relax, we like to be out and about and on the go.
We have a love of ice hockey, exploring, horse ridding and general partying.
We are away to bulgaria, our first time aboard together, on June 20th for 2 weeks. Sunny beach - Sunrise hotel.

Hi Everyone, Im Willie, 35, form Dublin, myself and fiancee Caroline are off to Sunnybeach on June 16 for a week. Judging by this site it sounds great. Not really into the nightclub scene but Ffeel free to recommend a few good watering holes for a bit of fun at nighttime.

Hi everyone, my name is Liz, I joined early this year, my husband's name is Lee and we are going to Sunny Beach on June 16th, thats next Monday, for one week. We are quite excited even though we dont really know what to expect, we are looking to buy in the near future. We usually go to the Carrabean but thought a short haul flight would be better for one week's stay. This is such a friendly site, keep up the good work.

Hi Liz, Myself and fiancee Caroline are heading on the 16th too. First timers aswell so we too dont know what to expect. Other sites kinda put me off the idea of Bulgaria but since we joied "Holidaytruth" our minds were made up. Now we cant wait to get there. So much to look forward too. Roll on Monday :hols

Hi everyone, My names is Simon and i'm 27 (dreading turning 30) :cry. I live in Blackburn with my Wife Hayley and our 2 and half year old daughter Isabelle.

We spent our honeymoon in Sunny Beach 2 years ago and we had such a great time we went back the year after and are going again on 25th August.

Hi

My name is Rachael and im 34 years old. Im single and live in Birmingham, i have 2 children and im a development manager for an extremely large financial company. Im off to sunny beach on July 11th, just me and my 8 year old daughter, staying at the Majestic Beach. Ive never been to Bulgaria before but booked it cos it was £300 cheaper than Morocco ;) . I love travelling and later in the year im off to Kusadasi in Turkey and Egypt. Any advice for a single parent traveller to bulgaria would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx

Rachael xx

Hi
My name is Susan & I'm 41 Going out to Sunny Beach for the first time with my 11 year old daughter on 25th July for 1 week. Staying at the Riu Palace Helena Sands. I stay in Glasgow & work for a car dealership in the fleet side of the business. OH isn't coming as he doesn't like beach holidays. Worried about reports that hotel will fine you 300 Euros if you take food or drink into hotel & have even heard some reports of them searching you :yikes
Are there any groups of single parents going around the same time that I could occasionally tag along with, for a chat at night time or doing the trip to the waterpark as I hate water, my daughter loves it, I stand at the waters edge and worry about her drowning & me drowning trying to save her & what do you do with towels, money & suncream if the 2 of you are in the water ?
The forums are great for local knowledge.
Thanks to all
