"You have to pay for this"
The morning we were taking the train from Timisoara to Sibiu, Robin was not feeling well.
We managed to make it through the six hour train ride but by the time we got to Sibiu, she couldn't even walk the 600 meters from the train station to our hotel, so we took a taxi to the hotel and Robin went straight to sleep. After napping for a couple hours, she was not feeling any better and after picking up a thermometer at the nearest pharmacy and confirming ...

And I still have to confirm that I can catch my plane ride home on Jan 4 by picking up the connection to Miami in London, rather than flying back to Bucuresti to fly to London to fly to Miami. It all came about after a few gray, overcast days. I just wanted some sun. And sitting in an internet café, having a beer or two, looking at how cheap ...
Getting to Know Vlad Tepes
Today started way too early with a 5am departure. An hour on the minibus and 2 cans of Hell (knockoff Red Bull) later and we were at the Baia Mare train station. A few hours on the train and then we were at our destination; Sighisoara! We arrived around 3, so didn't get to much accomplished today. I tried to get some stuff with the bank sorted (unsuccessfully), then went for ...
