Our AMAZING journey throughout Romania continues! We had the best time exploring Alba lulia and the surrounding towns and countryside - hope you enjoyed the video and thanks so much for watching :)
You 2 are amazing, mister Brian made me laugh so much at his remarks :). Also to make it easier with the names of some locations: White (Alba) Julia (Iulia) and for Rapa Rosie = The Red Ravine
I am loving this series on Romania. I had no idea how beautiful the country is a hidden gem for sure. Three of my grandparents were born in Romania but they only spoke of the WW1, communism, and how poor the country was when they left for a new life in Canada. Thanks.
You guys REALLY did Romania right. Our biggest regret probably of this entire year was not spending more time there. It's incredibly underrated & probably one of the last really hidden gems in Europe. Watching your vlogs on all the places we missed gives us so much motivation to see more of the country (and renting the car is a pro move for sure😂)! Keep up the good work guys!!
Hi guys!! We were genuinely amazed by Romania and plan to come back one day. We really got lucky with the car. Our host insisted that we use one of his to explore, so it wasn't a pro move at all. 😆 And yes! High places are scary!!! Love your, channel! Keep the videos coming and hope to meet up someday! Safe travels! Cheers!!🍻
I was born in Alba-Iulia and raised in a village close by. High school was walking 30 minutes down and up the Cetate porti”. Thanks for the tour. I have not visited in years. Beautiful
I'm glad you managed to rent a car end explore Transalpina, Sebeș and Alba Iulia (known as Apulum by the Romans) It was one of the towns i recommend for a quick day , glad you made it and liked it
@@BrianandCarrie ain't that typical, you found a nice host And yes I actually forgot to mention Romania's best tourist attraction: the hospitality Enjoy the rest of the trip and take a piece of Romania with you in your hearts
I wanted to congratulate you for the great job you do showing us around Europe. Each video is better than the one before. I really enjoy your content, your personalities and your humor "it's two thirsty, let's go", just an example. You are perfect for each other. Post as often as you can! Thank you very much and enjoy your travels!
Whoa. 😮 Alba Iulia is incredibly beautiful. You are introducing us to so many amazing places to consider visiting! Thank you so much for sharing your journeys with us! ❤ Happy, safe travels!
Love the video, my wife is from Alba Iulia so we're usually there every summer. You certainly got all the best bits. My son also tried his hand at making his own tour video of the city this summer. Hope you get a chance to visit again in the future.
This is your funniest video yet! We are in Cluj-Napoca today driving to Alba-Iulia hot on your trail, în August 2024. And yes, ITS HOT. We’ll be in Sibiu tonight. Thanks for all your (beer) tips. Enjoy!
you are so cute couple . and romanian îs gorgeous . and alba iulia îs absolutely amazing. thanks for this video . romanian îs amazing and People she s very friendly
@@BrianandCarrie if you want an advice..try and go deeper in the old villages when coming in Apuseni mountains..people here live almost as 2000 years ago and many are 90 years old ..around Alba and Cluj county.
Just fell in love with your channel! I salute you for ditching your 9- 5pm to travel. I have been thinking 🤔 of that of late and maybe I shall soon join you on this full time travelling journey. I am originally from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 and now UK 🇬🇧 based and recently decided to film from the where I am (England) and film too in other countries I will be blessed and to visit! Love to you and may you have all the success that you need!
@@BrianandCarrie , ohhh yes- I love travelling already and have visited a number of countries. I however started posting on RUclips this year, so my sharing journey is only starting. I am UK 🇬🇧 based so currently a bulk of my content is the UK.
I missed you … I’m glad you took your time to see how full of history Romania is. You really enjoyed your visit here, that I can tell. Thank you very much. You’re such wonderful people. I just realized that Alba Iulia is one of the few places I didn’t visit … but after seeing your video, it is now on my bucket list. Have a wonderful time and say a warm hello to your friends and family when you get in touch with them. Cheers …
Thank you, Kay!! We have a few more videos coming out in Romania so stay tuned!! We will be with our families coming this November and will absolutely give them your hello!! Thank you so much for your continued support!!🍻
Am putting Romania on my list for sure. Thanks for all your efforts. Leaving Thursday for our scouting trip to Valencia, Alicante and Malaga. We will someday meet you on the road for a beer or five. Social!!
such a nice surprise to the the town where i went to highschool (Sebes) highlighted in your video. Also Alba is so close to my hometown, it feels like home. Sorry for the lack of AC.
I should probably mention how awesome the video was or all the steps you took BUT...I only want to know... how many beers did you have that day? And did you follow the beer rules?
Great video. My wife's brother and his wife live in Alba Iulia. He was sent there in the 1980s when he was in the Romanian Army, and was there in December 1989 when the revolution went down. Very scary and dicey at the time--the stories are incredible but somber. He got out of the army in 2002 after a 20-year career so he saw both sides of the military, during and after the Ceausescu regime. They have lived there ever since the 1980s and love the town. We had a great time visiting as well. Enjoy your travels!
@@BrianandCarrie really, I watched the other night all of your vlogs from Romania and loved, both the vlogs and you. If I knew about it I would have invited you to a six beers hike, I am living in a place 35 kilometers from Alba Iulia. You are the coolest foreign vloggers in Romania that I've watched so far.
Hello there 👋🏼 We love to watch your videos! Great content and nice to see you travelling through Romania. It is one of the more underrated countries in Europe! When had you been travelling for those videos? Have a great time! 😊
We just left a couple weeks ago. We traveled through in July and August so we are a few weeks ahead of schedule which isn't normal for us. Thank you for watching! You have an amazing country. Cheers!!!🍻
Great video you two! We love seeing you exploring these more off the beaten track parts of Romania. How was renting a car and the driving there? We definitely hope to do that on our next trip in Romania!
Thank you!! The car was loaned to us by our host and the driving was easy. We would highly recommend renting a car and seeing the Moldova region. Something that we will be doing next time. 🍻
Iasi has been the number one suggested place for us to visit and we just couldn't make it in that direction. We will have to return one day and explore the Moldova region. Thank you for watching!! Cheers!!!🍻
Hello once again , on your travels we See that you usually travel by train or bus , but in Romania in this video you were driving did you find it was better to get around by renting a vehicle or just in certain areas in Romania, thanks . There is 3-6 hrs to get around to see places like Cluj and Oradea I am curious , thanks again David.
Hi, David. We had a car for just the two days that we were in Alba Iulia. Our Airbnb host let us use his car. We did trains to move about Romania. The trains are slow, but they do get you to where you need to go for an affordable price. If you have the means to rent a car it would be the way to go for sure. Thank you for watching! Cheers!!🍻
8:18 Alba iulia with " i " not "L" During the ancient times, the site was the location of the Roman camp Apulum. (The Roman Empire defeated Dacia Kingdom in 106 AD)
Hi Brian & Carrie, Wonderful video as usual. Just wondering, how is Surfshark working out for you? We are planning on a trip but currently do not have a VPN. Thank you for your beautiful videos. Also, was that car an automatic or a stick shift?😊
Thank you!! We love Surfshark and use it on our phones and computers. You can even activate the "kill switch" feature that won't allow you to connect to the internet without having Sirfshark connected first. In our opinion, it is a must. And, it is inexpensive so why not? The car was a stick shift! I hadn't driven a stick in 30 years but it all came back to me with no problem. 🙂 Thank you for watching our channel!! Cheers!!!🍻
Once again, thanks for the info about Surfshark. We will get it. Brian, you handled so smoothly that's why I was wondering about the car being a stick or not. Guess I won't rent a car in Europe, never drove a stick. 😄
before ww2, romania was called the "switzerland of the balkans/ of the east", for its scenery and good development back then (economy was neck on neck with spain) slowly i see some switzerland vibes again 0:20
România was never called that but only Transylvania, since the geography is very similar and also demographics too, both countries have 3 offices main languages and 3 main ethnic native population.
Romania is very diverse. Different parts of it, totally different scenery. That's because of its tumultuous history and foreign influences. The landscapes are also very diverse and you'll see mountains, delta, sea, pine-tree forests, lakes, rivers, waterfalls, old monasteries aso. Just be careful with the bears. There are approx 5500 plus wolves and other wild animals. Bears often come out from the forest and tourists feed them. That's really dangerous.
How was renting a car in Romania? Can you give some points on the process? Did you need an international license? How much was the rental? Did you have to buy insurance? If yes, what did you buy? Did you drive across any bordering countries? If yes, did it cost a fee, how much?
Hello, great video. R U still living on a base budget of $1800 a month? Or did you have to adjust it for inflation? What equipment do you use to make and edit your videos?
We are using a Canon M50 and Premier Pro for our editing software. We were using two cameras, a Sony a6400, and an M50 but using two different cameras makes color grading difficult in the editing process. We are going to do a video soon on how we do a video from start to finish in the coming months. Thank you for all the questions! Keep them coming!! Cheers!!!🍻
@@BrianandCarrie It's my understanding that you can create great videos with a Gopro and travel light at the same time. Also I hear the that with the new macbook air you can edit videos faster and better.
The GoPro, DJI, and even cell phones are becoming better all the time. The camera industry should be interesting in the coming years. Premier Pro is still the leading software in the industry and once you learn to use it becomes very efficient. Although it may be too advanced for some it is what we started on. We may someday upgrade our laptops and change editing software but for now, our budget definitely won't allow it!😆
Hi, Andrea. We did a video on this last month called "How to avoid the Schengen rules" basically we move in and out of the Schengen area to stay as long as we want to without a visa. Here is the link. Cheers!!!🍻 ruclips.net/video/5LkNca8Si6E/видео.html
Howdy!. As always great video. If you have time while staying in our beautiful country, you can visit the first city in the world (Ploiesti) that had a refinery, founded in 1857 by the brothers Teodor and Marin Mehedințeanu, Bucharest becoming the first city in the world lit entirely by distilled crude oil. Top 10 tourist attractions in Ploiesti 1. "Casa de Targovet" Museum 2. The Museum of History and Archeology in Ploiesti 3. Palace of Culture/Hall of Columns (former Palace of Justice) 4. Clock Museum 5. The Petroleum Museum 6. I.L. Caragiale Museum in Ploiesti 7. Nichita Stănescu memorial house 8. The Royal Church of St. Apostles Peter and Paul from Ploiești 9. Central Halls 10. The Hunters' Monument The surroundings of the city are also rich in tourist attractions, you can visit the Constantin Stere Mansion and the Bucov Zoo, the Filipești Mansion, the Nicolae Iorga Valenii de Munte Memorial House, the Zamfira Monastery, the Iulia Hașdeu Castle from Câmpina and the countless wineries in the Dealu Mare wine region, such as Budureasca Winery, Tohani Domains, Bellu Manor, Urlățeanu Manor, and Rotenberg Winery.
Thank you for adding this to the channel, love it!! We will be coming back to Romania one day to see everything that we have missed. Again, thank you so much for the detailed message! Cheers!!!🍻
I'm English and I live in Alba Iulia ♥. Love your videos of Romania. The star shaped fortress you explored has alot to offer. You had time to see some of it, but missed the Roman museum (in front of the University) the Iconography Museum, several other museums and an entire walk between the inner and outer walls. There you would find fab bars and restaurants, one of which (the Chechz Inn) often has live music. There are lovely gardens on the walk and some roman ruins. Throughout the year there are cultural events, free concerts, and an International Film Festival, in August (I think). Really glad you came to Alba. Hope you'll come again ☺.
Thank you, Jane, for sharing this. We loved our time in Romania and plan to return someday. Not sure that we will make our way back to Alba, but we did have a great day. So glad that we had the opportunity. Thank you again! Cheers!!🍻
Oasa is pronounced Washa. If you ever go back ask for the very friendly monk Father Sava, he is an American and has been there for over 20 years. He will give you a tour.
Alba Lulia is another of the Transylvanian cities founded, and cultivated by German colonial immigrants of past centuries. It German name is Karlsburg.
Hi, Penny. Our Airbnb host loaned us the car for the 2 days we were there, otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to afford one. Thank you for watching!!
Our AMAZING journey throughout Romania continues! We had the best time exploring Alba lulia and the surrounding towns and countryside - hope you enjoyed the video and thanks so much for watching :)
Best wishes from Sebeș and congratulations for your journeys, work ,publicity and promotion that you do! Thank you Brian and Carrie 🤗😘👍🏻

The Transalpina is a little ahead of the Oasa Dam, about 45 km from the Oasa Dam. The highest point is called Pasul Urdele.
TRANSALPINA... TRANS - ALPINA, means over the mountains... happy to see your posts! Thank's!
I love visiting old prisons! So interesting!
Love your beer rules! (I know you don't make them up because I follow the same ones.)
You have to play by the rules!! 😆
I should probably mention how awesome the video was or all the steps you took BUT...I only want to know... how many beers did you have that day? And did you follow the beer rules?
We always follow the beer rules, James. I do believe we rolled a couple over for consumption the next day. 😆

You didn't fimed Transalpina from top of the mountain? That should have been the main attraction of the road trip
Unfortunately, we were short on time and couldn't make it to the top. 😔
You only saw like a tiny bit of the Transalpina, well if you ever go back to Transalpina, go eat at Stana Stefanu (it's a shepherd hut)
Hi, John. We will be back someday! We love Romania!
Cheers!!!🍻
Sebes, Lugoj, Medias are some of the most beautiful cities out there
agreed!!
Cheers!!!🍻
That's why I always take my vacations in spring and in autumn, I just hate the heat, probably more than you guys do :))
We chose to come to Romania this time of year because we didn't think going to Turkey in the summer would be a good idea! 😆
very good wine 🍷 👌 in Jidvei Alba
Yes, Alba-Iulia should be in the top 10 to see in Romania. Also, Iași.

România was never called that but only Transylvania, since the geography is very similar and also demographics too, both countries have 3 offices main languages and 3 main ethnic native population.
Romania is very diverse. Different parts of it, totally different scenery. That's because of its tumultuous history and foreign influences. The landscapes are also very diverse and you'll see mountains, delta, sea, pine-tree forests, lakes, rivers, waterfalls, old monasteries aso. Just be careful with the bears. There are approx 5500 plus wolves and other wild animals. Bears often come out from the forest and tourists feed them. That's really dangerous.
How was renting a car in Romania? Can you give some points on the process? Did you need an international license? How much was the rental? Did you have to buy insurance? If yes, what did you buy? Did you drive across any bordering countries? If yes, did it cost a fee, how much?
Hi, we were actually loaned the car and only drove nearby where we were staying. So, unfortunately, we can't share much info.
please go to Timișoara
That video will be out tomorrow!!
Cheers!!!🍻
Hello, great video. R U still living on a base budget of $1800 a month? Or did you have to adjust it for inflation? What equipment do you use to make and edit your videos?
We are using a Canon M50 and Premier Pro for our editing software. We were using two cameras, a Sony a6400, and an M50 but using two different cameras makes color grading difficult in the editing process. We are going to do a video soon on how we do a video from start to finish in the coming months. Thank you for all the questions! Keep them coming!!
Cheers!!!🍻
@@BrianandCarrie It's my understanding that you can create great videos with a Gopro and travel light at the same time. Also I hear the that with the new macbook air you can edit videos faster and better.
The GoPro, DJI, and even cell phones are becoming better all the time. The camera industry should be interesting in the coming years. Premier Pro is still the leading software in the industry and once you learn to use it becomes very efficient. Although it may be too advanced for some it is what we started on. We may someday upgrade our laptops and change editing software but for now, our budget definitely won't allow it!😆
What type of VISA did you have to apply for to be able to stay for so long in Europe? Or do you come back and forth and get a new VISA each time?
Hi, Andrea. We did a video on this last month called "How to avoid the Schengen rules" basically we move in and out of the Schengen area to stay as long as we want to without a visa. Here is the link.

I'm English and I live in Alba Iulia ♥. Love your videos of Romania. The star shaped fortress you explored has alot to offer. You had time to see some of it, but missed the Roman museum (in front of the University) the Iconography Museum, several other museums and an entire walk between the inner and outer walls. There you would find fab bars and restaurants, one of which (the Chechz Inn) often has live music. There are lovely gardens on the walk and some roman ruins. Throughout the year there are cultural events, free concerts, and an International Film Festival, in August (I think). Really glad you came to Alba. Hope you'll come again ☺.
Thank you, Jane, for sharing this. We loved our time in Romania and plan to return someday. Not sure that we will make our way back to Alba, but we did have a great day. So glad that we had the opportunity. Thank you again!
Cheers!!🍻
I am romanian sweetie and I say death of romania forever

Oasa is pronounced Washa. If you ever go back ask for the very friendly monk Father Sava, he is an American and has been there for over 20 years. He will give you a tour.

alba iulia
Pub13 was a good restaurant. The food is bad nowadays. This is my hometown by the way. Alba Iulia I mean.
We wish that road to be a highway... but it is only a national road ... :-)))
Alba Lulia is another of the Transylvanian cities founded, and cultivated by German colonial immigrants of past centuries. It German name is Karlsburg.
Hi there, amazing video may I please ask if you can share the cost of the car rental and where did you rent it from. Thank you so much ❤
Hi, Penny. Our Airbnb host loaned us the car for the 2 days we were there, otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to afford one. Thank you for watching!!
