That's what I'm sorta hoping for. I've done the whole typical Western Europe thing and, while I enjoyed it immensely, I've always wanted to visit the Eastern countries. The concert I'm contemplating seeing would be a great excuse to go.

I'd tour the capital, Transilvania and Constanta which is a town on the coast of the Black Sea. Do your best to fit in and don't flaunt your cash or anything expensive. It seems like there's still quite a bit of corruption.. I'm sure that if you treat everyone with respect and give em a Buna Ziua (good day) or a more casual Ce Faci (how ya doing) then you should be good..  |
lol I'm expecting a bit of a culture shock, I wont lie. Just wasn't sure how much of a change it would be.
