On 16 November 2024, at the initiative of the secretary of the community centre (chitalishte), the Cossack women of the Kalinushka folk group visited Tataritsa, today a district of Aydemir, and Silistra on the banks of the Danube.
Tataritsa is linked to Kazashko “by fate and by marriage”: these are the two Old Believer communities in Bulgaria. The hosts were the organisers of the Cossack community there, Yana Gavrilova and Olga Ivanova.
