"I wouldn’t lie if I say that the "Photo Guidebook of Bulgarian Waterfalls" made my summer meanigful. Your work, time and effort, the photographs and most of all the result, which I hold in my hands, is magnificent. Ivo, you have done a great job. It’s a pleasure to own that book, which keeps changing hands in the editorial office of “TEMA”. It’s obvious that our adventures are about to begin..."

Elitsa Dimova, editor of “TEMA” magazine

"Your photo album is great! Absolutely gorgeous. I’ve just got obsessed with waterfalls. While turning the pages, you’ve got the feeling that you’re already using the guidebook, chilling out on a hot summer day... I find the idea of giving tips on how to take pictures of nature a great one. The design is up to European standards; you can apply for an award at the Association of the Bulgarian Book."

Mila Vacheva, head of “Culture” department, The 24 Hours daily

"Hello, Ivo! Congratulations on the book! It is really an invaluable guide for people like me, who like hiking in the mountains any time they are free. I have seen and admired some of the described waterfalls “in real”, but I haven’t discovered many of them yet – your book will help me enjoy their beauty and grandeur. I have visited the site, which I like a lot, but the book is something completely different – you can turn its pages and carry it around any time."

Vili Semerdzhieva, "Culture" department, The DUMA daily, Sofia

"Hello! Your book is awesome! I would like to thank you wholeheartedly for your work and for making it available for us! I had high expectations, I read readers’ comments and yet, the book exceeded my expectations!

I had been thinking of buying it since it was released but I couldn’t spare the money. I was close to putting off buying the book again, but...now I am thinking of showing and recommending it to as many people as I can because it’s worth finding its place on anybody’s bookshelf. I have even bound it because I keep it in my car; any time I feel exhausted or overloaded, I turn its pages and find myself in another world!

Thank you once again! The map of the 200 tourist sites is a wonderful gift! I have read that the waterfalls are a special experience of yours but I do hope you find a new one and design another guidebook of Bulgaria! Congratulations to the author and the whole team"

Borislava Vasileva, Plovdiv

"Hello, I would like to thank you for the great book. I loved it and I would like to ask you to keep me informed if you publish another book. Thank you!"

Zvezdelina Stoyanova, Varna

"Hello, I have received the book – it’s gorgeous! Everybody needs to have such a book at home! I keep urging people who are still wondering whether to buy it to do so as they will never regret it. Complete and fascinating information about the beauty of Bulgarian waterfalls! Congratulations on the author’s idea and its realisation!"

Kameliya Dzhudzheva, Suedinenie

"Hello, I received the book. I admit having had high expectations but I was astounded that the book exceeded them. Thank you! For almost 10 years my wife and I have been on many trips around our country in search of natural and historical marvels. Naturally, waterfalls are among our favourite ones."

Viktor Kuzmanov, Smilyan
 
"Hello again, Ivo. Thank you for the book, there were no problems with the delivery. All my expectations have been met, the photographs are astonishing and beautiful, and the way in which you provide the information appeals to me a lot:) It sounds as if you are giving instructions to someone who has almost finished packing their rucksack and is on the verge of setting off how and where to go and what to see:)
Thank you and all the best."
 
Yana Georgieva, Veliko Turnovo
                      
"Dear Mr. Nikolov, I have received the book; it’s great! Thanks for the quick delivery. I hope I will start using the book soon!"

Ivanka Treneva, Sofia

"Hello,

I have received the book. I can’t express my delight. I have been looking at it for 3 hours and I feel hypnotized by the photographs – they are unique! The description matches the photographs – everything is well explained. While reading some of the descriptions, I felt as if I was walking by the small river in search of an amazing waterfall.

I am very satisfied with the chapter on how to take unique pictures. I am a non-professional photographer (I take pictures for pleasure and to keep some memories from the places I have visited and I keep carrying a "soap-box" camera as it is compact and light and has some relatively good characteristics) and some subtleties are, of course, unclear to me. The tips and the photographs in the book (with the WOW effect!") have made me seriously consider buying a professional camera, along with my "soap-box", so as to be able to take, or try to take, at least half as beautiful pictures.

I am glad that there is such a book and that it is part of my home library. It will naturally be one of the first things in my car when I set off on a trip. I definitely agree with the opinion that the book can be a wonderful gift for anybody who likes travelling and who appreciates the beauty of nature. I do recommend it to everybody, it’s amazing indeed!

Best wishes for many more visits to the waterfalls, and not just to them; there are many marvellous places in Bulgaria that are worth visiting. Have a nice weather and take care while you are on a trip."

eng. Lyubka Kamenova, Burgas

"I’ve got the book. I am really thankful for the excellent Gift that I hold in my hands. The guidebook not only reveals some of the natural beauty of Bulgaria but it also inspires you to rise to the challenge; a challenge for you, for your innermost “I”, which keeps searching, rediscovering and developing, which experiences newer and newer emotions! Your wonderful book deserves admiration! THANKS!"

Dilyana Davidova, Plovdiv
 
"Hello! I have received your book today and it completely meets my expectations. I would like to express my gratitude for the beautiful selection of photographs and the information provided. I hope the book will help me organise some exciting and unforgettable trips. Have a nice day! "

Ivelina Stoyanova, Yakoruda

"Hello! I would like to express my sincere admiration in connection with your book as well as respect for the hard work you have invested in it so that we, the ordinary readers or passionate hikers, can hold it in our hands. I am positive that there are many more people who are equally thankful and appreciative. Keep up making us happy!"

Donika Nikolova, Stara Zagora

"Dear Mr. Nikolov, you have generated much of the beauty of our nature in this photo album and guidebook. Your followers – the photographers – have helped a lot for the presentation of the Bulgarian waterfalls. The book is of an exceptionally high quality! As a year-long high-mountain hiker, I will present your book to my friends and acquaintances as well as to tourists and amateur photographers.Congratulations on a job well done. I was really thrilled when I opened the package and saw the book!"

Emiliya Georgieva, Sofia
 
"Hello, I received the book today. Thank you! First of all, I would like to say that I was really impressed by its high quality. I would have paid more for a hard cover copy. The book deserves it. The mastership behind the photographs and the really useful and concise information have made it immediately one of my favourite books and it will definitely be one of the most used ones.

The tips on how to take pictures, the interviews with photographers, the sites for landscape photography and tourism in Bulgaria are a wonderful addition, just like the information about the healing power of waterfalls and the extremely important information about safety precautions. I would like to thank you once again for the book and for the gift – the map of the 200 tourist sites in Bulgaria."
 
Dimitur Dalev, Sofia

Thank you for the effort you have made to create this guidebook, which can take us to these unique places in our country!"

Lazarina Bozhinova, Sofia

"Hello, Ivo! The book is great and it gives us unbelievable ideas of walks and having a rest in nature. Thank you and the people who gave it to me; it has been a wonderful present. I hope it reaches the homes of many Bulgarians because our country is beautiful and it has magic places, which magicians like you unveil and popularize, and that is awesome:) I wish you all the success!"

Svetlana Dachkova, Varna
 
"Dear boy, I am 62, I like water and waterfalls and nature as a whole. Your book is great! My husband and I will try to visit as many of the waterfalls as possible, if all goes well. We’ve already seen Slivodolski waterfall, Raiski waterfall, Karlovski waterfall, Polska Skakavitsa, Rilska Skakavitsa, and the Devil’s Throat in Trigrad. There are other waterfalls too that I cannot remember now. Today I have received the 3 books I have ordered – for us and for my children’s families.

“Hello! I would like to congratulate you on the wonderful book! I ordered it on the Internet last week and I'm very pleased with the purchase! I showed it to some friends and colleagues, and they were impressed too! Me and my family like travelling around Bulgaria a lot because Bulgarian nature is magnificent and we particularly like waterfalls. When I was looking through the book, I realised that we had visited quite a few of the places but we hadn't known that there were waterfalls so close, which we could have seen! So your book will be of great use to us in our future excursions!
I wish you lots of success and I hope you will write many more useful and lovely books!“

In this way quite a few people will see the unsurpassed beauty of our country. Even though they'll do that through your book, they'll enjoy it nonetheless because the book is something truly beautiful, something created for our dear Motherland. I'm the kind of person who adores mountains, rivers and mountain lakes despite living in Varna. Mountains give me a chance to recharge my batteries really quickly. Our country is naturally endowed with a lot of beautiful places. It's only up to us, people, to appreciate them. I wish you all the success!“

Todorka Dimitrova, village of Ezerovo

“Hello Ivo! I bought the book as soon as it came out and since then it has been my inseparable companion not only during my real tours but also the imaginary ones.:)
As you keep asking about our impressions of your book, here they are:
•    it's a wonderful present: everybody can find something for themselves in it;
•    although there's a site, the book is extremely useful with all its travel information sections.
•    it gives numerous ideas for short and long-distance trips, as well as a lot of useful tips.
In fact, when I decide to travel somewhere, and I often do that (every week), I look through your book first to see if there's something to visit in the region:). I'm going to follow the development of your project and the process of enriching the site with great interest.:)
Keep creating such great books:) I hope you will have more and more followers  and a lot of inspiration!:)”
