My friend Lucia invited a gang of us over to Plovdiv to celebrate Chinese New Years. Why? Because Lucia is, well, Chinese!! Are you thinking to yourself that Chinese New Years was last month. Well, correct-omundo you are! Why are we celebrating it a month later? Well, why not, I say. It was actually just a better time for all of us to get together. And what a better weekend than St. Patrick's Day. A little Chinese flavor mixed with the Irish traditions. Ah, Bulgaria. You gotta love it!
After lots of catching up and relaxing, the cooking began. (That's Lucia...cooking away for the Chinese feast. And man, was it mm, mmm good.) After filling our bellies with all the flavorful food and drinks, we headed out for a night on the town. Our plan: to paint the town red! And thats just what we did.
It was a great weekend with fabulous friends. The type of weekend I will always look forward to. I cant wait to see them all again in a couple of weeks at our close of service conference for Peace Corps.
