Subject: Bulgarian gypsies - uncorrect word.
Hello!
I am Sabina Marinova and some time ago I sent you a mail related to this photo: http://www.maaratena.com/bulgaria/bulgarians.html .
I checked the site and I see you've published my opinion (thanks!). But I realized also, that I've done a mistake or rather I haven't been totally correct. So I'd like to ask you to change the word "real" with "ethnical".
"Ethnical Bulgarians look like me..."
The point is that it didn't occured to me that Bulgarian gypsies ARE Bulgarians actually. Just not ethnical. I wouldn't like to leave impression that I mind gypsies.
Thank you very much in advance, it is not necessary you to publish this mail, too.
Have a very nice day,
Sabina Marinova

Subject: Hello from Bulgaria!
Hi mi "friend",
I just saw your site and your comments for my wonderfull country - Bulgaria and the Bulgarians.
I don't know why you wrote this, but I really don't care!
My country is one of the most beautiful of the world. A lot of foreigners come here and enjoy our mountains, the seaside, the monasteries or the wonderful cities and villages.
I'm sending you pictures from my city and fotos from all over the country.
You can see them and if you still consider that we are ugly and my country looks like a shit... I don't care! It's your problem!

How can you put a gipsyes picture and to put the name
"Bulgarians" before the picture??? Why you do it? I hate
Bulgaria and Bulgarians? ..some kind of rasisum...go to
"www.google.com" write "Bulgarian history" and search
and you will understand what is Bulgaria!! Not only
bulgarian sites...thete are a lot of all kind of sites
that are not bulgarians where you can read my contry's
history (more that 1300 years of "now-day Bulgarian"
and many more ancient protobulgar history )... Please
change your site... It is just not etic! To show things
that are not correct.. I can send you my pictures to
see real bulgarian boy.... And dont get angry..just try
to understand me!!!

Hi !
How can u show the world the ugly gipsyes and say that they are Bulgarians???
I'm talking about http://www.maaratena.com/bulgaria/bulgarians.html ...
So with what right do you have to lie about us.
These from the photo are gipsies , and nobody likes them here.
just like ur blacks and mexicans.
I don't know if anyone in the fucking USA know where is Bulgaria?
Cause u don't care for anithing out of the USA and left the pig Bush to do whatever he wants in the world and with ur too.
Watch the Farenheit 911 and u will see.But please don't tell the world that we are gipsies.
I'll attach you pictures of me and my friens so u can see what the Native bulgarian looks like.
Bye and don't get angry with my words.
Regards ,Boian.

Hi!
I don't know how long you've been in Bulgaria (even I don't know if you visited Bulgaria at all), but Please if you want to show something to the world, please read and see more things before make any conclusions about Bulgaria and about Bulgarians.
May be you haven't enough money to have own house, but in "wild" bulgaria almost everyone had house(in communist era), before too many f..cken west people to come and steal many of our things.
Your picture "Bulgarians" in fact shows gipsy family. Bulgarians in fact are less "coloured" if you don't know.
I know that most people know bulgarians like
"people which tried to kill Vatican's prime Pavel"
"man that killed with 'Bulgarian' umbrella"
But you should know that
- John Atanasov (the computer's father) is Bulgarian.
- There are acient houses in bulgaria which are built 300-400 years age. I.e. older than USA.
- At this area there is archeological found with age of 8100 years.
- The father of American's aircrafting is Bulgarian, and many-many things that I don't know about my history(because of my kowledge)...
And please, take into account there is Internet in our "wild" country. :-))))))
There is too many qualified IT specialists in fact!
And sorry about my English... but please change your site... if you want I can e-mail you more materials from Bulgaria and about Bulgaria.
