"Bansko is the perfect ski resort for an absolute beginner“, according to a UK tourist sharing her impressions of the “small medieval town in Bulgaria’s south west that has been rejuvenated by skiing.”
The Daily Mirror ran in its online edition on Wednesday the story of Melissa Thompson, who said she “wanted to try skiing for myself, but circumstance – and expense – kept it out of reach.”
“Then I heard about Bulgaria. Skiers enthused it offered great snow without the expense of Val d’Isere or Whistler,” Melissa Thompson wrote in her account of the days she had spent in Bansko.
