Summary/Abstract: The (self-)transforming village and its actors create active images that are presented in a digital online environment. Vloggers, having skills that are different from those ‘traditional’ for the village, narrate on transitions to an out-of-the-city way of life. This text tries to produce a typology of vloggers from different parts of Bulgaria who present their perspectives on such experiences and on the village. They adapt online their knowledge to the place and the people, they educate and they create connections, interactions and communities. Life transitions and change are narrated and shown to teach to village life and interaction with the place. How are memories of the past and the future (re-)constructed, in the structure of ‘new’ digital narratives on the Bulgarian village? I am looking for the answer in the (online) strategies of narrators, vloggers of the village, who organize and popularize images from their experience and interactions.
