Шест поредни месеца на спадове. Рекорд. А март най-после затвори на зелено. Видяхме ли дъното? На фона на геополитическо напрежение, несигурност и пазар, който дълго време изглеждаше изтощен, Bitcoin все пак завърши март нагоре. Дали това е знак, че дъното вече е зад нас? Или просто кратка пауза преди следващото движение? На следващия Sofia Crypto Meetup ще се фокусираме основно върху Bitcoin и големия въпрос: Видяхме ли вече най-ниските нива в този цикъл? Ще обсъдим: Какво означават шестте поредни месеца на спад и защо март е толкова важен сигнал за пазара? Кои други проекти имат шанс не просто да целеят, а да излязат по-силни от този период? Фокусът ще бъде върху това кои сигнали наистина имат значение и кои проекти могат да преминат през трудния период с реални шансове за следващия етап на пазара. Без излишен шум, без магически прогнози, само добър разговор, смислен анализ и достатъчно време за въпроси и дискусия. Елате, за да обсъдим дъното заедно... И за да можете един ден да кажете: I survived the bottom!

## **Fashion and Nigeria** **What can Europe learn from Nigerian culture and fashion?** *** Fashion designer and personal stylist **Boryana Vatova** traveled to Nigeria in 2018 and stayed there until 2020. The reason – an invitation to teach fashion at the *Learn and Work* academy, where she later became Head of the Design Department. Boryana shares: *"When I moved to Nigeria, I realized how different the culture is from the European one. At first, it was difficult for me to find the right way to communicate. That’s when I started studying human nature more deeply and understood that if you approach people with genuine interest and respect, cultural differences become a bridge rather than a barrier. Gradually, I built a very strong connection with my students and the people there. They accepted me deeply and authentically, which was a great gift for me. Nigeria taught me to notice the small things, to be grateful, and to value human connection above all else."* On April 26th, we invite you to a first-hand story with both professional and personal perspectives. Through many photos, videos, and engaging stories, we will explore the following topics: • The *Learn and Work* Academy and the educational model between Italy and Nigeria • The students – their ambition and attitude toward knowledge and fashion • Nigerian fashion energy – colors, silhouettes, textiles, symbolism • Cultural identity as the foundation of style • How elements of African aesthetics can be integrated into the European fashion context The idea is to show that cultural exchange is not one-way – it is a dialogue. At the end of the talk, you will have the opportunity to ask your questions to Boryana Vatova about her experience in Nigeria, its culture, and of course – her work in fashion. 📅 **Date:** April 29, 2026 ⏰ **Time:** 20:30 – 22:30 🍷 A complimentary drink is included in a cozy atmosphere. 🎟️ **Participation fee:** €15 Please contact us to reserve your spot. 📍 **Location:** AfriKaya Studio, Lozenets district, 56–58 Krum Popov St., 3rd floor *** **More about Boryana Vatova:** My name is Boryana Vatova and I am a fashion designer and personal stylist. Between 2018 and 2020, I lived and worked in Nigeria, where I taught fashion at the private *Learn and Work* academy – an institution based on an Italian-Nigerian partnership. I later became Head of the Design Department. This experience changed not only my professional path but also the way I communicate and build relationships with people. Nigeria taught me gratitude for the small things and deep respect for cultural identity. Today, this is reflected in my work – I build strong personal connections with the people I work with and believe that fashion is a bridge between cultures. 🌐 Website: [Boryana Vatova Official Website](https://www.boriannavatova.com/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
