Why are Nikolay Boukovski’s experiences relevant for South Africans?Because communist Bulgaria had many parallels with apartheid SouthAfrica. The fall of the Berlin Wall and the dismantling of apartheid leftcertain groups rudderless and frightened, yet excited about change.The new orders were heralded by a chaotic feeling of losing control,which fuelled adventurous spirits but provided no user manual. Nikolayhas developed a user-friendly compass to navigate the obstacles thatoccur in multicultural environments and believes that there is somethingreally rare and special about African warmth. "This is one man's story told in the congenial manner in which a father would pass on wisdom to his child. In Embracing Change, Nikolay Boukovski shares his valuable insights about relocating in the global village, adapting to local mores and customs while supporting a family and managing changing careers." — Geraldine Connell, former director, Deloitte.
