We’re holed up in Veliko Tarnovo, waiting for the persistent rain to let up. This was a capital of Bulgaria back in the 13th century when "little" Bulgaria was actually a big deal — its empire included all of the Balkan Peninsula and stretched from Greece all the way to Ukraine. I show this clip for two reasons. First, to address the concerns from our viewers that it never seems to rain in our TV shows. (It does. We just do everything we can not to film when it’s raining.)

Trump and Your Trip to Europe (Part I of II) Many Europeans are saddened, disappointed, and confused about “what the hell’s going on” in the USA — and lately, the question I get the most from American travelers is “How will I be received in Europe?” (After all, judging by the welcome Vice President Vance got at the Milan Olympics, you’d want to pack a tomato shield.) Last year, about 200 European guides led 35,000 Americans on Rick Steves bus tours throughout Europe, on about 40 different itiner

This clip captures the simple joy of just being out on a Sunday afternoon in Bulgaria. I love the fact that there are songs that mean absolutely nothing to an American like me that get the local crowd, both young and old, jumping onto the dance floor. This one was a real favorite. Enjoying this scene in Sofia, it occurred to me, I didn’t need no stinkin’ folk show on some tourist stage. This was the real thing. Scenes like this demonstrate that, even in the poorest country in the EU, there’s an
