Some of Divi Zheni's best photos were taken during the summer of 2005, when we were graciously and generously led by Tatiana, her daughter Petya, and our guide Rumi, on a wonderful tour of Bulgaria, and where we performed in three towns along with Tatiana's other ensembles, Zornitsa and Slaveya.
Here are a few photos from that trip!
