Just like when I was cycling into the city of Varna just over a week prior, the street coming into Ruse, Bulgaria was also lined with prostitutes although not nearly as many as in Varna. Upon entering the actual city center I made my way into the central park where I met two very nice female Mormon missionaries from California. When I asked them if they knew where I could find a quality, yet affordable hotel for the night, the ladies offered to walk me to a nearby hotel on the shores of the Danube River.
After thanking the girls for showing me to the hotel, checking into my room and taking a quick shower, I returned to the streets of Ruse and found a local restaurant where I ordered a large vegetarian pizza to go. For a city that I had never heard of before and a place that I had no expectations about, Ruse was really rather charming. I later returned to the restaurant where I ordered my pizza, took delivery of the pie and then walked it down to the shores of the Danube river where I sat on a park bench and ate my well-deserved dinner as the sun set in the distance.
The next day I would cycle out of Bulgaria and cross over into a new country β Romania!!! My goal as the "Bicycle Touring Pro" is to give you the confidence and inspiration you need to travel by bicycle anywhere in the world.
