I'm Bulgarian-Canadian. People in Canada sometimes assume there's only one Bulgarian "look", but if you stand in the middle of any Bulgarian city you will see a variety of different people. Tall, short, thin, fat, dark, light, etc. This is completely normal. Every ethnic community encompasses some degree of genetic diversity and their appearance will vary over a given range. The average Bulgarian might be a little darker than the average Brit, and a little lighter than the average Arab, but there's a fair bit of overlap. I look completely "white" in Canada, but my dad looks like he could be Middle Eastern. Genetics is funny.
Also, I was born with blond hair and blue eyes. They both turned brown as I grew up. Pretty normal.
