My troubles in Eastern Europe is a verbatim account of the traveling oddities that happened to me in Hungary and Bulgaria. Particularly in Budapest, as soon as I arrived I found myself with a blocked ATM and credit card and very little money. While in Sofia an energetic man who was mad at me for no personal reason seemed to want to beat me up. So in the first case I was really foolish, in the second case good.
I am unlucky, or maybe lucky, but around me also happen events that at the moment do not seem pleasant.
