Dobri Dimitrov Dobrev ((ブルガリア語:Добри Димитров Добрев)) (born 20 July 1914), better known as Grandpa Dobri, Elder Dobri ((ブルガリア語:дядо Добри)), or The Saint of Bailovo is a Bulgarian ascetic who walks several kilometers each day to sit or stand in front of the Cathedral of Alexander Nevsky in Sofia to collect money for charitable causes. Dobrev〔 donates all the money he collects to charities, orphanages, churches and monasteries and he turned 100 in July 2014. In Bulgarian Language his name translates as good or kind.
== Life ==
Dobrev was born 20 July 1914 in the village of Bailovo. His father died in World War I and his mother had to raise their children by herself. Dobrev does not remember his youth and school years. He decided to marry around 1940, which is around when Bulgaria joined World War II. In one of the bombings of Sofia a bomb fell near him and he lost almost all his hearing. Dobrev and his wife had four children, two of which he outlived.
Over the years Dobrev became detached from the material aspects of life and devoted himself entirely to the spirit world. Around the year 2000, he decided to donate all his belongings to the Orthodox church and now he lives very modestly in a small extension to the Saints Cyril and Methodius parish church in his native village of Bailovo. About that time he embarked on his mission to raise funds for the restoration of churches and monasteries across Bulgaria.〔 – част от филма „Лепта" (2000 г.), продукция на фондация „Покров Богородичен"〕 It is this new direction in life and the example he gives with his asceticism that led many to call him ''The Saint of Bailovo''.
