The Wild Northeast

The rock monasteries of Dobruja are among the earliest of their kind in Bulgaria.
From here — the Roman province of Scythia — the monastic tradition that emerged in the East spread across Europe.

We’ll also explore the impressive remains of the once-prosperous Roman city of Palmatys.

The story will bring the ruins back to life, carrying us into a time when the monasteries and the city were buzzing with activity.

We’ll chat about the nature of Dobruja as well — and its lesser-known canyons.

We’ll learn, explore, laugh, get a little tired — maybe even work up a sweat…
