Well bruv, this may be stating the obvious but you're gonna have to learn Bulgarian. Cost of living is low, so if you have even meagre savings you'll live like a king. Do keep in mind that folks usually go the other way (Bulgaria->UK) in search of a better life, but most end up coming back or least frequently visiting home because no one in their right mind likes living in the UK lol. Having said that, Sofia is Bulgaria's most cosmopolitan city and more or less party-central so you should probably have a good time.

You WILL experience culture-shock and probably regret going, but on the other hand you only live once and should capitalize on every opportunity for adventure. Worst case: you end up hating it, break up with Ya Girl and return to your clockwork orange-esque dystopia to pull your lovely ikea furniture back out of storage. Medium-worst-case: you break up with ya girl but oh poo poo you're suddenly a unique snowflake surrounded by smoking-hot Bulgarian chicks who are all highly educated, speak English and would definitely be up for another 9 year stint in London. Best case: you work remotely, getting paid in pounds and spending all that paper on cheap beer and cheap drugs while lazing around in your giant apartment that you could never in a million years afford in London.

You get the gist, but if you Would Like To Know More you should probably travel there first and see what's what. I'll be in Sofia within the next week or two should you choose to do so and would like to have a beer. Alternatively just PM me or revive this thread.
