Bulgaria Today – 18 july 2024

In “Bulgaria Today” on Thursday, July 18, we bring you, first, the latest news from this country.

Next on the show we talk about... carpets. Traditional Bulgarian carpets are the passion of Jaap van Beelen - a Dutchman who came to Bulgaria to live and study the almost extinct art of carpet weaving. In a conversation with Veneta Nikolova, he tells us about his many adventures in life and explains how he fell in love with old carpets. Join us for this amazing interview.

Finally, in our music slot, to mark the 187th anniversary of the birth of our national hero Vasil Levski, we'll be listening to the song "A Path for Levski", performed by the Rumen Rodopski Trio.
