Str. Pietii nr 5 Brasov, Transylvania, Romania
... to leave my tour early in order to go see a friend of Nathan's, Christine, in Vienna. I'm excited about planning my own route again for 2 weeks instead of just one and hopefully visiting Slovenia and Croatia and probably Italy. I can't believe I'll be home in just a month and am already starting to worry about practical stuff again, but I'm trying to distract myself with cafe tours and the like.<br><br>Two days left in Romania, and I'll see you in Bulgaria.
Brasov, Transylvania, Romania sarakmills... One thing that I have noticed with Romania is that all he young people especially girls dress smartly and there are a lot of old people begging or selling flowers here. Also the girls are really attractive but I have still yet to see one smile! Tonight will be the first time I will couch surf. I am staying with an American guy at his place so hopefully all will go well! Tomorrow I will do some more exploring in the near by area and towns before I head to Bulgaria.

Rasnov, Romania buranowu... ll give Brasov the benefit of the doubt and call it a street. The great thing about Brasov is that on my first night there (Sept. 9) there was a free concert in the main square. There was a large stage set up and seating for several hundred people. Turns out it was a great concert. It was the full Brasov Philharmonic Orchestra, so it was the real deal. They played what you could call the 'Greatest Hits' of classical music but it suited me just fine. They also had a few opera ...
Brasov, Transylvania, Romania eileenj... to the last day there would be a glitch --- No buses on Sundays! Luckily however, two fellow Americans and two Polish tourists at the bus station were also unaware of the scheduling so it made it a bit cheaper when the five of us crammed into a taxi for the 30 minute drive. Sometimes being the biggest has its advantages when you look at the others and say "I'll sit in the front". As we got out of the taxi upon entering Bran there was a definite "Disneyworld ...
Brasov, Transylvania, Romania phileus_fogg... by the kitsch show bags and suspended in awe at the 17 year old work experience student dressed up as the famed vampire. So it should come as no suprise that after trekking through the freezing cold snow to get there (OK, OK we got the bus - but it was still cold at the bus stop) we were extremely dissapointed to discover that the castle was just a big house with no mentions of Vlad nor Dracula. Did I mention the house was open to the elements? This meant that ...
Brasov, Romania claude_and_iain... pelea. Al final me dio la llave de la habitacion para que pudiera descolgarme todo y ponerme las chanclas, que amable. Con el asco que me da andar descalza en cualquier sitio. El sitio estaba lleno de carteles con normas como no entrar a la cocina despues de cierta hora, no hacer ruido despues de cierta hora, no, no, no. Muy bien, pero no es un colegio y ella era la que gritaba todo el tiempo, dia y noche. Mi ...
Brasov, Romania warm... zelfs 2 x aanwezig in het centrum van Wenen. Ideetje voor volgend jaar, Lieke en Sabel?), de Stefansdom, het Globemuseum (leuk!!). En natuurlijk rondgehobbeld in de stad, in het zonnetje. Gisteravond met de volgende nachttrein door naar Roemenie. Helaas werden we deze keer wel midden in de nacht wakker gemaakt bij de grensovergang (tussen Duitsland en Oostenrijk regelt de treinsteward alles voor je). Oostenrijk-Hongarije was niet zo erg, dat was om ...
Sighisoara, Romania renate... to my surprise, seems to be very popular here in Romania. Who knew? For a brief moment, I was back in Costa Rica. It was sometime during this afternoon respite that Dave and I discovered many commonalities, including a strong first-generation identity (his, however, being Romanian) and a mutual love of dominoes. So, after wrapping up our siesta, we went on a quest to find some. Third time's a charm, they say, and after trying 2 stores with no luck, we struck gold in the ...
Brasov, Romania calivoodoo... success with some women: Kenny with a girl from Louisiana, who quickly earned the nickname "Big Breast Celeste", and the much cuter story was that Will met a local girl named Laura, and though I won't go so far as to say he fell in love, but lets just say they "clicked" in a very intense way! We didnt see much of Will the rest of the time because he was off with Laura, but we somehow managed to still have fun and see the local sights and meet some new people.
