we are pleased to announce the 5th RANLP conference to be held this
year. The conference will take the form of addresses from invited
keynote speakers plus individual papers. All papers accepted and
presented will be available as a volume of proceedings at the
conference. Volumes with selected and revised papers from the
conference are traditionally published by John Benjamins Publishing

LOCATION
========
The picturesque resort of Borovets is located in the Rila mountains
and is one of the most famous winter resorts in South-East Europe, a
frequent meeting place for the elite in world skiing. The resort is
1350 m above sea level, at the foot of the highest peak on the Balkan
Peninsula - Moussala (2925 m). The resort of Borovets is 73km from
Sofia and 126km from Plovdiv (see the map at the conference site),
which means that both Sofia and Plovdiv with their international
airports can serve as arrival/departure points. In addition to regular
public transport, the organisers will provide daily shuttle buses from
Sofia airport to the conference location at an inexpensive rate. A
taxi from Sofia to Borovets is relatively cheap; it is also possible
to take a taxi from the international airport in Sofia to the
conference venue.
