It was not pleasant the night at the Balowa Shuma hotel, Alexander, its owner or whoever, is missing many courses for dealing with the customer or at least with those who go with backpacks and that we religiously pay as the one that more, their treatment to The phone was correct but when he saw us come in, he totally changed his face, arrogance and contempt from the first minute to the last, we sat down to dinner and were invisible as if we didn't exist for what we got up and left. At the time of payment I wanted to charge in euros, € 25 we wanted to pay in LEB that the change is double, that is 50 LEB because no, if we paid in LEB I wanted to charge 100 LEB for what we decided to pay in euros, we give 50 € and did not have to go around, and wanted to stay € 50 well an odyssey. We have had great accommodations in Bulgaria with great hosts, but this was the exception.

To ours, as we spent breakfast at your place, we left early, fasting and without dinner, and we did it with the first lights of the day, following the road towards Bistrilitsa, we left the town about a kilometer to the left, and we left from the road to take a lane that runs through barren fields where some crocuses can be seen along the way, the problem was mosquitoes, both in the fields and in the oak forest was a plague, we had to hang the sticks and use a branch with leaves to scare them away.

When we arrived in Leskovets there were no mosquitoes and we took the opportunity to rest in an abandoned square where a group of geese went from one place to another.

From Leskovets to Kotenovtsi we walked along a narrow road with little traffic, just a European viper planted in the morning sun, dared to face us with his snorts, We hoped to find some small shop or coffee to put something to the body but between these villages they are small and on top of that it is Sunday because nothing and from Kotenovtsi in the end we have nothing but mount, forest and loneliness.

We take a path to the left that ascends hard until reaching a track that continues to ascend but softer, always between oak, walnut and some brave chestnut trees, which are already changing the color of their leaves by the entrance of autumn, for ten kilometers, loneliness and the song of the birds, only at the entrance of Berkovitsa are people in the cottages enjoying the weekend. Berkovitsa is a large town with more atmosphere than usual so far, with the exception of Vidin and Belogradchik where you see more life.

In a store we buy two Czech beers and a bag of chips to kill the bug of not having put anything to the body and in a park we put them in the body

The accommodation is 300 m away, the Night Guest House a magnificent place like almost everyone with a very friendly lady who welcomed us with a wide smile.
