Where Dracula was Born

Kurzes Lebenszeichen
Hallo Leute, ein kurzes Ich-bin-noch-am-Leben aus Cluj in Rumaenien! Ein total kranker Trip liegt hinter mir, aber er ging recht gut aus... Es ist aber zu spaet um nochmal zurueck nach Chisinau zu fahren, deshalb geht's gleich weiter nach Bukarest und ...

No 24 hour k-mart in Transylvania
Caught the train from Bucharest to Brasov. Sat next to a lovely Romanian girl who was studying architecture. She kept offering me wafer biscuits and bought me a pen. Bless her. She was really quietly spoken and found me, a real live Australian ...
A Piece of Dislocated Deutschland
... only planned to continue south from Sighisoara. Ironically, maybe due to this region is more German than other parts of Romania, Transylvania is actually historically more affluent and advanced than other regions. This has made it easier for foreigners to ...
Polish roots and painted beauties

Forget about Dracula
... the nearby village of Viscri to start our exploration of the Saxon fortified churches in the area. You have got to know that Romania is a country of hitchhikers, while it seems to be the most popular way of traveling between cities and villages. On our ...
Following Saxons' trail
... any hitchhikers this time. First things first, we arrived at Malancrav, which boasts the highest proportion of Saxon villagers throughout Romania. In this small village stands the 14th century church which we were eager to visit. Took us some time to ...
Brasov, Romania
... We didn't go to Bucharest, heard that it was unimpressive and depressing more than anything, but stayed the entire time in Brasov (Romania's second city). At the train station we had a very odd feeling. Erin was a little freaked out. The very obvious ...
Brasov

Bucharest, Romania
... About 800 people were killed (the bullet holes on the buildings have only recently been repaired). Fearing the people of Romania, the military stopped listening to their leader. Soon after, Ceausescu was arrested and tried for fraud. The ...

Bulgaria and Romania
Like most countries there are good areas and bad but going from Serbia through Bulgaria and ending up in Romania is quite an education in the Communism. There are beautiful areas with fabulous churches and squares but so many factories and buildings that ...
One take on Gypsies
I've been kind of interested to know the story about gypsies and why everyone in Europe feels so vocally unfavorable toward them, so I asked everyone at dinner tonight. I should first point out that I haven't formed much of an opinion on them, so this is ...
Painted Monestaries
Off we go to the Bucovina painted monasteries in the Moldovia region (late 15th to early 16th century, and another WH site). Unfortunately, the only way was a primary road, down to one lane most of the way, through the mountains. The Carpathian ...
Bran, Peles, Snagov
We drove past Brasov, to get to Bran castle. While it's surrounded by Dracula lore, it is a really nice castle that was the Romanian royal family's residence for many years, and the only castle I've been in that is livable. Driving back we ...
