In today’s episode of The World Vegan Travel Podcast, we’re heading to the beautiful and often underrated country of Bulgaria. I’m joined by Valeria Hogg, the founder of Heritage Ltd Bulgaria, a charming vegan guesthouse and restaurant nestled in a rural area just outside of Sofia. Valeria is not only a passionate advocate for plant-based living but also a certified tour operator offering immersive travel experiences that connect visitors with Bulgaria’s rich culture, breathtaking landscapes, and evolving vegan food scene. In this episode, Valeria shares how she transitioned from city life to creating a cozy retreat for vegan travelers, and how she’s now curating unique tours that celebrate local traditions, seasonal events, and natural beauty. If you’ve never considered Bulgaria as a vegan-friendly travel destination, this conversation might just change your mind.
