European Social Reality

Are you sitting at work trying to keep your swivel chair nice and warm? Are you doing the sleepy eyed head bob from trying to stay awake after a big lunch outing with the office? Are you in dire need of some good reading to keep you going through to the end of the day? Well, I have just the thing for you. A new(ish) report released in February from the European Commission! Its bold, its interesting. Its a report that will keep you going for hours.


The nearly 200 page report is full of colorful bar charts, pie graphs, and loads of statistics. It was released in order to better understand the social realities of European Union citizens including Bulgaria. The survey covers opinions and feelings about a vast array of the dimensions of social, economical, political and everyday life of the European citizens. Seriously, it is quite intriguing. You wont want to miss this hot read.

European Social Reality Report

It's been all over the news in the past weeks. And it's ever more shocking to see where Bulgaria falls when asked questions about their happiness, work, and overall well being. Maybe not so surprisingly, Bulgaria ranks pretty low on most questions. They seem to be the most unhappy, most pessimistic people in the EU. I guess there is no where for them to go but up. And up I hope they go. I find Bulgaria to be a wonderful place to live. If only Bulgarians felt the same way.
