Hamlet, Home Edition

This is a lame adapted translation of the Russian story I posted a couple of days ago. The author unfortunately is anonymous. If you could polish it, so it sounds better in English, please do. It's in the public domain, as far as I know.

- Dad, can I get 99 quid off your card? Need to pay for a book
- What book?
- Shakespeare, Hamlet
- Why, we have it
- Really? Which file?
- What have files have to do with it! It's on the shelf. It's your nana's.
- Nah, that's a deadwood book
- So what? I read it when I was your age.

IRAKLI - a not yet concrete and glass by the sea


Irakli - a photo from the "Let's save Irakli" gallery

I was browsing. Having a stroll around the web to find some pictures to show friends interested to go to Bulgaria on holidays. In my opinion the best way to relax is not in the concrete jungle of the packaged holidays. It's not in the overhyped modern and outdated built up areas, but what the locals call wild camping. It's the equivalent of having a tent on the commons. Well, you can always hire a room in one of the small villages or towns.

You could that is. At the moment, the well guided and funded forces of progress are having a very successfull go at turning the Bulgarian seaside into a huge series of private resorts. The hills and cliffs are augmented by concrete and glass.

This progressive activity destroys really beautiful and unique untouched nature. It's funny how blinded are the investors. Dark, but funny. You see, it's the nature, which makes people want to go to these places, not the urban jungle. If you want the latter it's not Irakli or Varvara, Sinemorec, Silistar or any similar plcaem it's London, Prague, Paris, Moscow, maybe Sofia which will attract people.

So why am I writing this? Well, a few brave souls are trying their best to raise awareness, mainly in Bulgaria, but not only. They organise protests, parties, make a lot of noise to try and save Irakli.

Have a look at a few pictures of Irakli. If you like it and support their cause to preserve it, just post your support in their forum. They will be really chuffed.
