Keeping stories across languagesAutumn 1984 · family date
Dad · Aunt Maria · Grandma
The family moved to Sofia in September 1984 with two suitcases and Grandma’s sewing machine, as Dad remembers it. It was already cold, Aunt Maria recalls, and that first week Grandma used the machine to sew Dad a coat from her own old one. Two days later he started school in that coat, Grandma says, and refused to take it off all day.

One question to start
What is the very first thing you can remember?

Start your free monthA note from the founder
Years ago I recorded my grandfathers telling our family’s stories. Those recordings are priceless to us now — and I wish I’d kept more while I could.
These days I live in Austria and my family is back in Bulgaria — it is hard to find the right moment to record stories like I did in the past. This is why I built Spomen: my parents can tell their stories at their own pace.
I record stories from my life with my daughter, and we all share the stories in our family group. Everything is perfectly organized and searchable, and everyone can contribute and share. It’s a new way to share our lives and remember.
— George, founder of Spomen
Builds Spomen in Austria so his parents in Bulgaria can tell their stories.
More about GeorgeSpomen (спомен) is the Bulgarian word for “a memory” — the kind you keep.
What happens to your stories
Original audio and the first transcript are never overwritten; AI-written prose and your edits stay separate. Story data and original recordings are copied daily into independently encrypted recovery archives with a separate European provider.
Only the family members you invite can open the archive. Share links are explicit, revocable, and never part of a public feed.
We do not sell your stories or use them to train our models. Named service providers process content only to transcribe, write, narrate, store, or deliver what you ask for.
Export the original recordings, transcripts, story text, photos, and family data in standard formats. You can also delete your data.
Try recording, private links, and story calls for 30 days, with 1 Story Hour included. No card needed.
