    Romania is one of my favorite European countries. It's so beautiful and diverse, both the nature and the culture. I also love Romanian food. A simple mamaliga cu brândza i smântâna (polenta with goat's cheese and sour cream) is my favorite....

    Regards from Serbia 🇷🇸 to the most beautiful country and the nicest people.
    I've travelled almost the whole world, but the Romania is a country where I would probably go another 30 times and the feeling is always fresh as if I went first time.

    Great video, brings back memories of our trips to Romania!😍 Was that cheese at the start that you said was like cheddar called "cascaval?' Good that you stuck to just 2 mici (it's pronounced like "mee-tch") to avoid stomach problems!😂 We hired a Dacia Logan 1l our first time in Romania too, but it didn't perform too well on the switchback mountain roads in the north!🙈 Next time, we went for a Ford EcoSport, that was much better, especially for the Transfagarasan!😆 Driving is a bit crazy there tho, esp in Bucharest. I only drove once on my own in Bucharest, got lost and ended up getting a police escort to where I was trying to go!😂 The police were so nice and helpful!🥰 Wish we'd been vlogging back then, would've made a funny video!🤣

    I am romanian and am , in this case, subjective, of course, but I traveled in Europe, even lived for years in 2 western countries and though the financial aspects were great for me at that time abroad, I chose to come back to Romania and don't regret it for a second. I don't know about the rest of the world, but to me Romania is the Best place to live in Europe.

      It seems that the place where you live has not refined your manners. To call such an option of someone a "mistake" denotes a primitive person, to express myself elegantly. Or a troll.

    Don't try traditional Romanian food in Bucharest because most of it is not made with raw materials from Romania but with raw materials from other countries that are highly chemicalized, to eat authentically organic in Romania, try cities like Suceava, Sibiu, Brasov , Oradea, Cluj, Bucharest, like the capital, is a transitional city where only 30% of the population is local, the rest are just passing through, business school, political faculty, etc. it is not a tourist spot, at least not from the point of view of food
