You'll have to walk quite a bit, here. Follow the directions out of the city (if you happen to be on the west side of the city, it costs about 30 euro cents to get the bus into the centre..Jass found after 3 hours in the severe heat, that no cars seemed to be going south when coming from the west..somehow..). You'll eventually get to a roundabout with signposts for the E87 and [[Vama Veche]]. Here you can hitch to the border. Best just to have a sign for Bulgaria rather than [[Varna]] if this is your direction as it's still quite a way.
