Project information

- We will travel around Burgas (so, not just strictly along the shoreline, but also inland) to document the Thracian and Roman heritage of the area, which often gets less noticed vs. the Greek settlements in that area.
- Money will be spend mostly on food, gas, entrance fees.
- Describe your team
- We will travel in a small group, with one person with very significant experience across projects (myself), and one person brand new to the project, who has a long lasting passion for quality images. I hope this mix will allow for quality inputs both from a formal editing perspective, and from the image quality perspective.
- For which Wikimedia projects is the project relevant? For which communities is the project relevant? What is your target group?
