Very interesting ! We are fulltime living in a motorhome after having sold our house to find out what else life holds. Not retired so no pension. We have a 1/3rd of an acre in Hampshire, spent 11k trying to get planning for a cabin.. with no success. We are planning our next years trip and it looks like Romania it is ! Enjoyed your video so we will subscribe. Good luck with your project. We follow with interest.
I remember in Ceausescu time I was in love with England and I ended up in US! I am amazed now to see British people living in my country!Anyway I wish you good luck and thank you for promoting my beautiful country!
It is great to have you guys! Hard working folks, great initiatives on how things can be made better. The irony is we still have romanians leaving the country to go make a living outside, including in UK while there are a lot of brits looking to leave the UK which is a real head-scratcher. Another interesting development for Romania is that in 2-4 years the highway and express road system will be interconnected so it will be very easy to explore the country or have access to areas where normally people just wouldn't consider going or would like to invest in.
Thanks for the highway info. that's a great point. As for head scratching it's somehow human to think the grass is greener on the other side of the fence, we are all inherently explorers after all. The trick is of course knowing where that's really true. :)
You shouldn't see it as irony at all, I consider this to be something that enriches you a person as you fully get different perspectives, cultures and so on... no matter where you go and live for a while! I myself as a Romanian, i moved back after 10y of living in 3 different countries and I see that as one of the greates achievements I ever did from cultural perspective, work habbits, community living, network, etc. ... I also encourage all my young family to do that step in their life as it's a real game changer! Cheers. P.S. - with the roads, let's see :))) you know how it goes down in our beloved country... toate bune.

Yes it’s true that young poor Romanians are going to Western Europe to make a buck , but if you are a well off westerner and move to Romania you will live really well .
Great video. Congrats for the guest. Good points for discussion. We are welcoming you from the UK. Pitești and Argeș Department is a great affordable area. I’ve moved back in this area of Romania from Toronto , Canada after 28 years and it’s been wonderful . I could say that, over all I spend 3 times less in Pitești comparing to Toronto, but I live 3 times better and also the quality of the food purchased directly from the country side is way better then in Canada. There are issues regarding bribes and corruption but they are becoming less and less being tackled by the institutions. Internet is excelent , also the installing of solar panels is becoming very easy and profitable. Please sell your expensive house in England ( what I did in Toronto) and move to Romania. You will definitely have a great life here. The culture is very similar, way less non European foreigners, low to non existent criminality .
Research how a self-sustainable community works it will help you a lot. they have solar panels, they have water fountains and hydrophores. they have at least 1 hectare of land per inhabitant on which they have plots (solar) that allow the production of food in all seasons
Foarte interesant interviu si inspirational chiar si pentru noi, românii care inca nu prind curaj sa lase orasele mari si sa se îndrepte spre countryside.
"scott... please build me a chicken hotel" would be one approach :) it's not so complex to build, start with building something small and see how you get on
1. The local council has to include formally the agriculturural land in the city/village. There's a tax for that. 2. Based on the Urban Development Certificate, you'll know what you're allowed to build or not. That's public info in the City Hall. 3. You're not restricted to use your imagination in building ; no mandatory "victorian style". 4. An architect and a construction engeneer specialized in structure will make the plan of the building. This will be submitted to the council along with permissions from firefighters, electricity company plus anything might come local. 5. From the day you're authorised, you got 1 year to finish, extendable with one more. When finished, you register the building to the council. From that moment you can install electricity, sewage and whatever. Make sure how much it cost to connect your building to all these. Good luck!
Thank you very much for this information, if you think you can help us directly I'd very much appreciate it if you could email me on headforthehillsromania@gmail.com
It makes so much sense WHY THEY CHOOSED to live there , the wife is Romanian, very useful to speak the language and know the culture you live in !! Many Romanians live in Ipswich all well !! 😉😊
I am beginning research on moving to Romania at 54 soon to be 55. I found your channel. Thanks. I have a lot to figure out but being a lifelong bachelor I hope I can get a work visa or investment visa.
This is all so nice and I like to see all you foreigners loving my country 😊😊🤗🤗 you should also strive to learn the language though so you can truly integrate into the society. Its only normal. If I move to Germany for example, I have to learn German 😊❤ Love u guys, thanks for moving here ❤😘🥰

I work for a small architecture firm as a draftsman and I worked on a few PUZ. It's as you said, seems pretty straight forward if you read the law, but the biggest snag is getting all the permits. Long delays and issues are not always a matter of corruption, it might be some red tape edge case for which some clerk can't give the go ahead because he doesn't want to be responsible for it or the law is murky on some aspects and a clerk interprets it differently than how the architect did. Anyway, I'm pretty sure all the architects told you that the first thing to do is to get issued an Urbanism Certificate from the appropriate townhall, it's cheap and an important basis on which to talk with the architect on concrete requirements. It should generally outline the limits you have to respect and permits you need to get. Unfortunately there is some variance in what permits each townhall asks due to incompetence, local practice and due to issues they encountered with other various institutions. Sometimes some permit or other is not required by townhall, but the Environmental Agency will ask for one or more or even a study concerning the impact on water sources and water table and if you need a permit from the ANIF (Land Improvement Agency) it will also most likely be together with the permit from the Directia Judeteana de Agricultura/ Agriculture Ministry and one of this requires a pedological study. Some of the permits need the others to be approved first and if you have forest on your land or if it was classified in one way, but is used differently now all sorts of delays can occur. Honestly with some of these issues you'll actually WANT to give a bribe to get it done quickly, but it won't be possible. My opinion is that the laws are flawed and not clear enough and the guides to put them in practice are also full of red tape, not to mention that each institution has it own internal red tape.
My advice is to get an urban planner that has a good relation with your local council, I have two neighbours that got a PUZ, the one that chose a random company got he's PUZ approved in 2years, the one that worked whith the company that was close to the local council got the PUZ approved in 4 months.
@@randomromania and one more thing, if your plot of land is 5000sqm you can get PUZ done on only 100 or 200sqm, you will save a lot of money. A few years ago where I live the cost for a PUZ was around 1euro/sqm, today I guess it has gone up.
so you are looking at potentially 120k euro or if you do like in my example maximum 20k euro, in Romania you can have one land register (CF) number with both intravilan and extravilan land
Yeah, but he has to pass a language, history and country's customs, Constitution, etc. written test. Looks to me that Scot doesn't practice enough Romanian with his rooster.😃
Good question. I am retired person contemplating moving back to Romania after over 40 years away. School education is not my problem, but I hear that healthcare issues are daunting, especially out in the countryside or small towns, especially in an emergency.
Nice clip. I didn't understand something about Scott's status in Romania. He says at 13:00 that he got there 4 years ago and that he has 5 year residence permit in Romania, then he would get a 10 year renewable permit. But, in 2020 he could settle in by his being a EU citizen, then stay indefinitly by virtue of Brexit agreements, isn't it so? Also, if he's married to a Romanian citizen, doesn't he have a right to permanent residence? I also read that someone married to a Romanian citizen can get naturalized after 5 years residence. Why wouldn't he request naturalisation? Doesn't he speak Romanian good enough? As a Romanian citizen, he would be able to travel freely in the UE, or even leave Romania then come back at will, without countaing days and so on.
i can't answer that off the top of my head but scott and i are friends so i'll pass on your comments to him. typically, from what i saw, native english speakers, who only speak english since childhood, after thirty old or so struggle to pick up additional languages. i myself have been here 23 years and i barely speak any romanian, not because i don't want to, obviously i do, it would be an advantage to me, but my recall is pathetic compared with my 18 y/o brain. to be honest it was a technicality compared with the main issue i've always faced here which is the general mentality when it comes to taking responsibility or committing to anything serious. i see many romanians achieving amazing things but few seem interested in collaborating with me seriously despite what i bring to the table, so my community idea is my solution to this. also this is not me personally, all westerners i know and many romanians have the same issues and sadly romanian does not attract the best people from the west, i could suggest policies that would do that but that's a whole different subject. anyway thanks for the feedback, all appreciated.
Thanks for sharing your interesting perspectives. I think that native English speakers do not strive too much to learn foreign languages, because they speak the universal one. Exception make the Americans who need Spanish in order to communicate with their cleaning ladies ---:) I started learning French in the 5'th grade, English in the 9'th and Hebrew during college years, when I began to think of emigration. I applied seriously to all of them. Need or expections of need drives one to learn foreign languages. I believe that Romania should focus on bringing their best and brightest people back from the West, rather than Westerners with no family connection. That would be realistic and productive. I have no idea about how is to live in Romania, as it's worlds apart from communist times when I left. That's what I see even from my short visits. I whsh you all the best.
@@randomromaniaBest way to learn a language is to live among people. But no stress in Romania if you don't. Plus, many words are easy to associate with english so you'll figure out what it is about. As for mentality, yes, this continues to be a problem. However, it also depends on the region you live here. Either way, don't despair. Scott, at least to my knowledge and it worth researching, doesn't need to learn romanian and pass tests to become citizen ; simple fact he's married with a romanian should do the job. And it costs pretty much nothing.
@@lsd8497 you need to learn languages when you are young from what i've observed, it's extremely unusual to find people who've only ever spoken one language learning a new one later in life, that's especially true for english speakers. it's true the mentality here is different in different areas but many romanians seem to see life as a zero sum game, i wish it were not true but it's incredibly difficult to find people who play fair, are honest and have a work ethic, i'm trying over and over to find romanian people to collaborate on my project and they don't seem to understand how my primary focus is not profit and i'm acting in good faith, would love to have you prove me wrong however, all suggestions welcome and i'm happy to give you detailed examples
Ask people who have gone through this process if in Romania it's easier to ask forgiveness (and perhaps pay something under the table) then it is to ask permission when it comes to permits.
honestly the process although cumbersome as defined in law does not look so illogical or unreasonable but finding "professionals" who play fair is another matter, but, we're getting there albeit slower than I would wish
They don't know the law. There are way too many so called architects that are still creating plans that follow specific standards - standards that have been fazed out decades ago...
Probably because beside the law abiding, hard working romanians, there are lots of pimps, prostitutes, thieves, and other such specimens, that went there. Let's not pretend that we don't know this, very well 🙄
@@Maria..Carina-y6x No ! Pimps, prostitutes, thieves and underground world are ruled by english gentlemans not by romanians 3:) maybe you dont know English pimps in Romania but i know :) Tate brothers and company :) Hells Angels or other bands are real bad people not romanians .the reason is different and related to other things
Bfr brexit a romanian woman would marry a british to move to the west. After brexit,a british would marry a romanian woman to have acces to europe. Funny how history works. Love your videos.
I must advise that even if all seems good from this video the truth is that this is the case for BRAȘOV only. And from a political point of view our country is plagued by far right extremists, there is no left leaning party. So it might be well now but if you are a woman , as a woman, I advise you to think twice before moving. Also unless you make around 2000 dollars per month you are going to have it hard here.
" We live like in the '80s in Romania". Thank you for your sincerity, Sir. That says a lot about that country's huge gap with the civilized world. The '80s was a dark communist era in Romania. Not very different today if you look at who is leading the country these days. I wouldn't brag too much about the chickens or you will be left empty one night. Stealing was and still is a very popular sport in Romania. After all, this is the country where Prime Minister Adrian-Four Houses-Nastase ( aka Bombonel or Popo) was prosecuted and jailed for stealing :)
OK, you misunderstood Scott's point, he was referring to the '80s UK with fondness, the '80s England was in many ways better that 2024 England. Funny you mention about chicken theft, some were stolen but by foxes not Romanians, also I know about the pilfering issue but this in an annoyance compared with what can happen to you in a western city.
@@randomromania I realy don't want to rain on your parade but as a Romanian born and raised in that country, I would be very cautious about returning and living there. I was forced to leave twice because of the stealing trauma I experienced in Romania: first was my brand new Dacia they stole it from the parking lot, and then they broke into my internet cafe business one night and stole all my computers. A few days after I got married they broke into my apartment in Bucharest and took everything valuable. The cops never found the thieves. Actually, they never bothered to do anything about it. After my parents passed away, the person I paid to take care of their property stole everything that was in the yard. When I returned home, even the aerial power line to the house was missing. Sorry for the long replay...I can easily write a book about stealing in Romania. And that won't be about poor animals like foxes.

Welcome to our beautiful underrated Romania 🙈🤗🤗🤗🤗🤓
I work for a small architecture firm as a draftsman and I worked on a few PUZ. It's as you said, seems pretty straight forward if you read the law, but the biggest snag is getting all the permits. Long delays and issues are not always a matter of corruption, it might be some red tape edge case for which some clerk can't give the go ahead because he doesn't want to be responsible for it or the law is murky on some aspects and a clerk interprets it differently than how the architect did.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure all the architects told you that the first thing to do is to get issued an Urbanism Certificate from the appropriate townhall, it's cheap and an important basis on which to talk with the architect on concrete requirements. It should generally outline the limits you have to respect and permits you need to get. Unfortunately there is some variance in what permits each townhall asks due to incompetence, local practice and due to issues they encountered with other various institutions. Sometimes some permit or other is not required by townhall, but the Environmental Agency will ask for one or more or even a study concerning the impact on water sources and water table and if you need a permit from the ANIF (Land Improvement Agency) it will also most likely be together with the permit from the Directia Judeteana de Agricultura/ Agriculture Ministry and one of this requires a pedological study. Some of the permits need the others to be approved first and if you have forest on your land or if it was classified in one way, but is used differently now all sorts of delays can occur.
Honestly with some of these issues you'll actually WANT to give a bribe to get it done quickly, but it won't be possible.
My opinion is that the laws are flawed and not clear enough and the guides to put them in practice are also full of red tape, not to mention that each institution has it own internal red tape.
The cause seems to be mainly due to lack of coordination and shared practice between institutions essentially. Tipic românește!
OK, all noted, I have some specific questions, do you think you could email me on headforthehillsromania@gmail.com
@@randomromania Sure.
The Big Come Back is to follow, Uk Romanians going back Home 😊
My advice is to get an urban planner that has a good relation with your local council, I have two neighbours that got a PUZ, the one that chose a random company got he's PUZ approved in 2years, the one that worked whith the company that was close to the local council got the PUZ approved in 4 months.

Pimps, prostitutes, thieves and underground world are ruled by english gentlemans not by romanians 3:) maybe you dont know English pimps in Romania but i know :) Tate brothers and company :) Hells Angels or other bands are real bad people not romanians .the reason is different and related to other things
@@dadighidut because the had enough of they're ethnic minorities ;they don't want our gypsies as well.
because they don't want our gyp.ies as well ; they have enough ethnics...
Bfr brexit a romanian woman would marry a british to move to the west.
After brexit,a british would marry a romanian woman to have acces to europe. Funny how history works. Love your videos.
Thank you :)
I must advise that even if all seems good from this video the truth is that this is the case for BRAȘOV only.
And from a political point of view our country is plagued by far right extremists, there is no left leaning party. So it might be well now but if you are a woman , as a woman, I advise you to think twice before moving. Also unless you make around 2000 dollars per month you are going to have it hard here.
Ipswich is a joke mate . At least they are in premier league.
" We live like in the '80s in Romania". Thank you for your sincerity, Sir. That says a lot about that country's huge gap with the civilized world. The '80s was a dark communist era in Romania. Not very different today if you look at who is leading the country these days. I wouldn't brag too much about the chickens or you will be left empty one night. Stealing was and still is a very popular sport in Romania. After all, this is the country where Prime Minister Adrian-Four Houses-Nastase ( aka Bombonel or Popo) was prosecuted and jailed for stealing :)
OK, you misunderstood Scott's point, he was referring to the '80s UK with fondness, the '80s England was in many ways better that 2024 England. Funny you mention about chicken theft, some were stolen but by foxes not Romanians, also I know about the pilfering issue but this in an annoyance compared with what can happen to you in a western city.
Typical frustrated romanian (hopefully) living abroad. Stay where you and don’t pollute us pls!

@@randomromania I realy don't want to rain on your parade but as a Romanian born and raised in that country, I would be very cautious about returning and living there. I was forced to leave twice because of the stealing trauma I experienced in Romania: first was my brand new Dacia they stole it from the parking lot, and then they broke into my internet cafe business one night and stole all my computers. A few days after I got married they broke into my apartment in Bucharest and took everything valuable. The cops never found the thieves. Actually, they never bothered to do anything about it. After my parents passed away, the person I paid to take care of their property stole everything that was in the yard. When I returned home, even the aerial power line to the house was missing. Sorry for the long replay...I can easily write a book about stealing in Romania. And that won't be about poor animals like foxes.
