Did You Know: Shaking Head in Bulgaria

Did you know? — By Goran on 2011/10/07 5:21 AM

Did you know that Bulgarians shake their heads to mean yes and nod for no?

In Bulgaria the head gestures to say “yes” and “no” are inverted in comparison with the other countries.

So, to avoid confusion during your stay, speak and don’t move your head too much!
