Rila Monastery’s fortress-like complex engulfs within its walls you’ll find remarkably colourful architecture and religious art.  I was struck by its elegant colonnades, archways striped in black, red and white, and the bright yellow domes of its main church.





It is pefect place for one day excorsion, but you can stay at or near the monastery to experience its tranquillity after the tour buses leave, or explore the hiking trails that begin here and lead to the Rila Mountains.



It was very overwhelming and soul-lifting experience. I was captivated for its beauty. It a must see destination if you are in Sofia. It is easy to get there. Don't worry that you don't know bulgarian. A lot of foreigners travel everyday from the bus stop to Rila Monastery, that is why it is so easy to get around.









 How to get to Rila Monastery?

The bus leaves from Ovcha Kupel bus station in Sofia.  At 1020hrs a bus leaves for Rila village, it arrives at approximately 12h15, then you change bus from the same bus stop at 12h40 to Rila Monastery by about 1300hrs. The ticket you buy in Sofia is valid for the mini bus to the monastery. For a return trip catch the same mini bus at 15h00 from the monastery to return to Sofia by 17h30 (you shouldn't have to change buses for this journey in Rila village).

 Cost: 10 BGN

I thougt I will try out the trend that is going on Instagram right now. It's the squiggly wavy brows. Is it going to be a new thing? I really hope that people will not jump into band wagon with this trend. It is not something I would go in public but I will attempt to do it.


On the left side it is my face without any makeup. On the right side first I drew the wavy shape over my eyebrows. Then I outlined them with the L'Oreal True Match Concealer. I filled brows in with the Wibo 2 in 1 Eyebrows system. I tried to put the hair in wavy shape with the Eveline Art Scenic Eyebrow Corrector.

I don't know if I did it right. I think I did the brow too thick. Anyways doing the brows doesn't feel right. In my opinion it looks terrifying.

Today I'm going to review the Rimmel 25 hours Lasting Finish foundation with spf 20. I've tested it out during hot days this summer and it did a great job.

Rimmel Lasting Finish Medium coverage foundation that feels hydrating and moisturizing. Lightweight formula blends instantly into the skin creating a nude, pore less effect. Sweat, heat, humidity and transfer proof for up to 25 hours. egg white proteins. The exotic formula helps and strength, elasticity, hydration, and balance.  30ml

This is a very good foundation in a good price. I like the heavy glass bottle and the pump. It is very practical and feels expensive.
