We say goodbye to Mihail Mihailov, doyen in the Spanish edition of “Radio Bulgaria” –

Mihail Mihailov, a brilliant translator and speaker from the Spanish edition of “Radio Bulgaria”, has left us. His translations and journalistic presence on the air will continue to be an example of high professionalism and excellent command of the language of Cervantes.

After graduating from Spanish philology at “St. Kliment Ohridski” University, Mihail Mihailov dedicated himself to translation. A curious moment in his career is the help he gave to the Bulgarian engineers in Cuba, who built a number of infrastructure sites on the island. But as a professional Micho left the brightest mark with his work in the Spanish edition of the “Radio Bulgaria” program of the BNR.

Michaud was a man with a huge heart and a loyal friend, ready to help anyone. He possessed a brilliant memory and a characteristic, memorable voice. He was very eager to share his knowledge with his colleagues and was always eager to teach them something new!

In his memory, we will hear an excerpt from the New Year’s program of “Radio Bulgaria” in Spanish, broadcast at the end of December 2016.

An excerpt from a radio broadcast with the voice of Mikhail Mihailov is part of the song “Radio Bulgaria” by the Mexican group Mexitano Soundsystem.

Tribute to his memory!
