BulgAlien
A community of foreigners living in Sofia.
Enrich your life.
Imagine a group of interesting people from around the world: with their life stories, diverse professions and unique perspectives. People you can learn from. People who broaden your horizons. People whose company you enjoy.
We meet once a month — to share a good laugh, engage in deep conversations, explore common interests — and leave a little different than we arrived.
Not quite a social club. Not quite a philosophical circle. Not quite a growth community. We live at the intersection of all three.
Good to know
- We organize a variety of event formats (see FAQs).
- Open to foreigners living in Sofia. Significant others are welcome too.
- The majority of applicants are 25–45, but we are open to all age groups.
We usually meet on a weekday evening, once a month.

Frequently Asked Questions
We organize 3 types of events:
Casual drinks: no need to explain this one, right 🙂
Structured discussions: We break into small groups of 6–8 people for thought-provoking conversations — from funny personal stories to deeper life questions. Examples: “What is the funniest or most unexpected thing that has happened to you in Bulgaria?”; “What will my life look like in 10 years?”
Shared experiences: From board game nights and bowling to picnics and Vitosha hikes.
The membership fee allows us to actively build and maintain a high-quality community — from organizing events and activities to communicating with members and creating opportunities for meaningful connections.
Most events are included in your membership — you only cover your own food, drinks, or personal expenses when applicable.
Some special activities may require an additional fee. For example, a rafting trip may include costs for the rafting company and transportation, while creative workshops or other experiences may require a separate payment to the event organizer.
Every new member is connected with a dedicated person from our team they can reach out to — whether they have a question, need help getting started, or simply want to know more about the community.
At each event, we set aside time for new member intros and structured get-to-know-you conversations.
At most events, our agenda is specifically built to help you really get to know a few of the other members.
This community is exclusively for international residents living in Bulgaria and their partners or significant others.
We bring together people from different countries who want to meet new people, experience Sofia together, and build meaningful connections.
