For the citizens of Europe, this indicator stands at 62 percent on average, or more than double the figure for the citizens of Bulgaria. The average sum Bulgarians spent when travelling abroad was 156 euro, compared to 336 euro spent on average for tourism by citizens of the EU, Eurostat data indicate.
