Colourful snapshots of Bulgaria, the Balkans and beyond

Savannah Fortis is a photographer and writer currently based in Sofia, Bulgaria. Besides documenting the country’s folk musicians, she’s working on a long-term project based on her travels by bus entitled A Country in Transit.

From pictures of market stalls and people selling cigarettes from the boot of their cars to cinematic landscapes, her Instagram account encapsulates the mundane and beautiful details of everyday life.
