yeah i get that on DNA land..on other similar ones - north-east asian :)

My east asian is kinda weird more northeastern asian(chinese/mongolian) than siberian.

Again southeast asian and east asian more so than siberia.
Bulgarian Siberian average is around 1.5% as far as i observed. A Thracian Bulgarian from Komotini scores 3.8%. She doesn't have any known Turkic ancestry.
mt-DNA is not like y-DNA. I mean mt-DNA doesn't have specific subclade and their spreading is weird. I mean a mt-DNA can be seen both in Nigeria, China and Germany. Also as you stated there is no enough data in yfull. It is better to evaluate it among only Bulgarians.
It is possible you have either Albanian/Greek or Vlach ancestry as different from Bulgarian. But both Albanians' and Greeks' North Atlantic not that high and not enough to make you score 26. You may want to check this.
But those are all extremely low, noise-level values. Even members of nations who didn't have any contact with Eurasian people can have Siberian, Southeast Asian, etc. pop up in their results. I doubt it's actual Asian ancestry in your case, unlike OP and Seya.
Your Siberian score is not high for eastern Balkans.
Serbian user Dušan got 1.73% Siberian on K13 Eurogenes and 1.53% on K12b dodecad, and he is from here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lika

Sofia, can you please post your full Eurogenes K36 result?
I was curious to see the total result, but particularly wanted to see if you score any SCA. This component is related to Turkic peoples. I see you don't get Siberian here, but it seems to me Siberian is a little more elusive on this calc compared to K13. I think your Fennoscandian is high, which may be a mixed German/Slavic component? I have not seen a clear definition of what that is supposed to represent. I believe your Italian component is in the normal range for your ancestry.
Me > Baltic 29.65 + North_Atlantic 16.56 = Northern European 46.21
Sofia > Baltic 22.33 + North_Atlantic 26.9 = Northern European 49.23
So it is prety interesting how we have arround the same amount of Northern European when you add it up but I am more Slavic and he is more Western European. You can also see it in the Oracle he is 2/3 Hungarian 1/3 Italian and I am 2/3 Ukrainian and 1/3 Cypriot.
2/3 Hungarian and 1/3 Italian is a very atypical evaluation for Bulgarians which means heavily more West Europe admixture.
Average Bulgarian proxy is 50-60% Ukrainian and 40-50% Cypriot.
Thracian Bulgarians get 50-50 Ukrainian + Cypriot. NE Bulgarians get 60 Ukrainian 40 Cypriot. Central Bulgarians get 55 Ukrainian 45 Cypriot. I also got 54 Tatar - 46 Cypriot.
I'm around 36% North European in this sense.
First of all, sorry for the bump.
I got my Y-DNA results awhile back. I only did Y-25 and I came up as R1a. More specifically - R-M198 but I am pretty much with almost 100% certainty - R-L1029. Not too surprising I guess, maybe someone knows something more about it, would greatly appreciate information regarding it!
To keep it related with Autosomal DNA forum - I always used to get at least ~4.5+ distance as a first guess on every calculator(Not even Bulgaria most of the time). But I think I found the most accurate one for me and that's Dodecad K7b which pretty much nails me as a Bulgarian with 1.91 distance.
Spoiler!
R1a-L1029 is most common in the balkans in central bulgaria and macedonia, it seems to me to be connected to the eastern south slavic languages ie Bulgarian and Macedonian instead of western south slavic. So it is perfectly normal your y dna for a bulgarian. Its a good idea to join the bulgarian dna project if you havent(https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/bulgariandna/about).
