Event Description

Join Egan Davis on an engaging account of his travels in Bulgaria during the summers of 2015 and 2016.

He will focus on the fascinating biodiversity hotspot of the Strandzha Mountains, an area left uncovered by ice during the last glaciation, and the oldest undisturbed plant community in Europe. The mixed deciduous forest has a unique blend of European and western Asian plants with an unusual broadleaf evergreen understory. His stories will also weave in encounters with the preserved culture in old, undisturbed villages, and the social history of the country.
