On 15 October 2025, Rotary Club Sofia International held its fourth formal meeting of the Rotary year, this time at the Novotel Hotel. The evening brought together ten members and two guests from Rotary Club Misgav, Israel, with whom we had the pleasure of performing a flag exchange — a meaningful symbol of the enduring friendship and global connection within the Rotary family.

President Claude Badane captivated the audience with an engaging presentation about his camper journey through Scandinavia undertaken with his wife, Inna Badane, in 2022. Through vivid stories and beautiful images, Claude shared highlights from their travels across the Nordic landscapes — from breathtaking fjords to charming northern towns — and reflected on the joy of exploring diverse cultures while embodying the Rotary spirit of curiosity and connection.

Later, Secretary Domagoj Stefan recounted his enriching experience attending a meeting of Rotary Club Marbella in Spain on 7 October 2025. He also shared details of a flag exchange with his business partner, Jernej Kenda, from Rotary Club Celje – Barbara Celjska, Slovenia, during an international conference in Marbella, further strengthening our club’s ties within the global Rotary community.

It was a delightful and inspiring evening filled with friendship, stories, and shared Rotary values — a true celebration of the bonds that unite Rotarians around the world.
