Bulgaria
For those of you that love the idea of taking life right back to the roots, Bulgaria is a fantastic destination to consider. While it’s becoming an increasingly more popular tourist destination, the way of life is still kept simple, and that’s what people love about it. There’s no need for fancy technology to take you through each day. With so many beautiful things to see and do, along with the absolutely incredible weather that it receives, you’d be mad not to try it! If you’re looking for a quieter village, consider heading to Ravda where you will find more of the local lifestyles, and if you travel between the months of October and March, you’re less likely to see crowds of tourists. Bear in mind that many attractions will be closed, but the necessities will still be available for you.
One of the best things about Bulgaria is the cost of living. While in Britain you will find that a bottle of water is over £1, in Bulgaria you will find that the same bottle of water is a considerable amount cheaper, so you won’t need to take mountains of cash with you because it won’t cost you very much at all! You may also notice that flights and locations to stay are also extremely cheap too.

Normandy
Normandy is situated in France and is a fantastic place to go if you love visiting places that celebrate their history. Normandy was a major part of world war two, and still has a plethora of remnants from the war for you to visit and enjoy. The great thing about Normandy is that it’s so proud of it’s history that the City is still living the simple and happy life. The fact that there is no longer a war and troops storming the beaches is enough to keep an incredible ambience throughout the city. It’s a great place to take the children to teach them about the origins and saviours of world war two. So, not only is it a great place to visit for the simple life, but it’s also educational for your children too!
