Buying, Taxing and Insuring a car. by jagd1
How does one go about buying say, a Citroen Berlingo Diesel LHD 2nd hand? Insuring and taxing it if one is not a resident. We need a car to travel across Europe which would be RHD and would need to be sold losing quite a bit of money because it's ...
Thanks for that info. I think it is agreed that the state of Bulgarian roads would tend to dictate a pretty robust vehicle and/or something base on a commercial van. I had been looking at the Fiat Doblo (which is also manufactured in Turkey now) ... Read More
Hunting - Boar by jagd1
One of the common things in France and Italy is hunting boar. In Kent England they are now having problems with escaped wild boar who are breeding and also mixing with the ordinary pig stock so they have to cull them. Up here in the highlands the ...
Thankyou for that. Here we have to cull the deer due to the damage they inflict on the forests and especially tree bark in the winter months. They can kill off trees at an alarming rate. It's the rutting season and driving cautiously between two ... Read More

I should clarify this, boar are a great source of excellent meat, they are also apart from a danger to walkers, hikers and residents in remote areas a cause of problems to farmers and small holders digging up root crops etc. Unchecked they can ... Read More

WorldExpat I've just noticed that you are American and I've have made comments re America. I just want to set the record straight. I've got no problem with Americans who tend to be hard working to the extreme. They place great value on family but ... Read More

I don't think people understand just how brow beaten and correct the Brits really are and how easy it would have been to change much in the past. The government backed off rapidly in the 80's over the Poll Tax due to riots and civil ... Read More

I'm getting more and more to like the French, Italians and the Greeks at least they are all objecting and demonstrating about having their pensions stolen and their taxes raised so bankers, mainly US bankers can have their fat salaries and ... Read More

Mobile phone cost and broadband by WorldExpat
Hello, Does any one know if there is a 3G broadband (SIM card) in Sofia and what is the best cost for a 1 month subscription only? Thank you in advance.
That is excellent news thank you, we seem to get ripped off for rubbish service here. We are promised 20mb get told we will only get 6mb because of "line problems" and end up with 1.5mb. Honest, decent, legal.............no just theft and lies. Read More

I was told that the route through Yugoslavia was not particularly good anyway for other reasons apart from the terrain and the weather. A complete no-no through Serbia especially for Brits. So the route would be down through S.Germany, across the ... Read More

If I turn up with my RHD vehicle are their problems re-registering it? I would presume that I would need to have residents status before I could register it, insure it and tax it. I have been also told that if you have extended stays in Bulgaria ... Read More

You think the mountains are a problem? We've had two sensible twenty somethings (brother & sister) avoiding a deer off and into the Loch upsidedown and drowned about three miles from us. Two tourists the same did the same about three miles the ... Read More
