North of the city of Varna, there is a village expressively called Kamen Briag /Stony Coast/. It lies near the shore, where the sea waves break against the steep rocks.

One can drive to the village along a road full of pot-holes, a turning off the highway to Romania. Turkeys and geese are seen strolling the village streets. Showing behind stone walls are the village houses and only rarely can one catch a glimpse of a human being. I got there by chance. Never before had I heard anything about what I am going to show you now.
