Government and politics Semi-presidential democratic republic Executive: President + Prime Minister 1 President: 5 years Parliament = the Senate + the

Chamber of Deputies Let’s not go into other details and try

to keep a happy atmosphere for now

When you come to Romania, You will first arrive in the capital,

Bucharest. In old time was called “Little Paris”

In Bucharest, you will see the Palace of the Parliament,

The world’s 3rd largest building

Luckily, it fit on this slide, though……twice!

the Romanian Village Museum,

Over 100.000m2

272 authentic peasant farms and houses from all over Romania

The Triumphal Arch, It honors our

independence, gained in 1878

The release version built in 1935

You will visit Sibiu, the “cultural capital of Europe”

We didn’t just make it up…We read it on Wikipedia: “Sibiu was designated European Capital of Culture for the year 2007 together with Luxembourg“

And maybe the jolly cemetery of Sapanta

…famous for its colourful tombstones with native paintings, describing, in an original and poetic manner, the persons that are buried there, as well as scenes from their lives… (Wikipedia)

…And, of course, the celebre myth of Dracula… In his frightful castle

You’ll meet some locals on the way,

And then you’ll get at the mountains…

If you like mountains, you won’t get enough of our Carpathians!

Light tents, good shoes and full-day hiking is recommended. It’s all worth it!

Here are some photos…

Slowly, you’ll head to Moldavia That is, the region in Romania, not

the country ;)

…And there, in Moldavia, you’ll visit the unique medieval monasteries

And then you’ll come visit us in Calarasi!

A town near the Danube and of Romanian Plain, on the left part of Danube, to Bulgaria’s frontier,area-5088 km

and 331 000 inhabitants.

You’ll stay with my family,

Any other regular Romanian family works as well

We are all welcoming people

And you’ll fest on all those wonderful Romanian dishes!

Yes, all of them! Romanians eat a lot; guests of

Romanians usually eat double ;) You will be full, but you will still

find some space for desert: Fresh watermelon (the real thing) Home-baked pie

In the evening, we’ll go out We’ll meet with friends, go to a

terrace, have a beer, chat about football, IT, life…

Then we can do anything you want that we can’t really afford around here…

Just to give an example: 1 beer out = 1 Euro!

The next day, I’ll show you around the city…

And then we’re off to the seaside

Sun, beaches, beautiful girls, concerts, clubs, pizza, kebab…

Also, cool challenges, like a few thieves, crappy accommodation and trash every now and there. It’s still the Balkans, remember? ;)

Anyway, a lot of fun and many cool people if you know where to look.
