I've always associated Bulgaria with Hristo Stoichkov, their legendary football midfielder who mesmerized the world with his exquisite passing skills on the football pitch. The Bulgarian football team captained by Stoichkov in the 1994 World Cup did well to enter the semi-finals and helped to put the country on the football map. I was then drawn to the existence of this country in Europe which is located next to the Black Sea coast.

Being just accepted into EU, it is envisaged that economy will boom in this ex-communist country and I think bulgarian property prices will rise in tandem. This should augur well for this country and EU football as a whole with more choice of players under EU!
