few years ago I meet some locals on the other side of Cerna Valley and I asked about the price per hectar. The man said :" I own 5 ha and I can give you one for free only if you promise to move here. I want to have some neighbour" . This is about how romanians are with strangers
If you travel, you'll realize that there's some common hand gestures and expressions...then there's also the wonderful Google Translate app, which he was using.
When my mother in law visited from Germany, I knew a few German words and very few sentences. She could not speak English. However, we communicated with no problem. She spoke in German and I answered in Afrikaans with a few German words inbetween.
The dog just made sure that you made it back to safety, Romanian shepherd dogs do that all the time in the mountains, they always greet you when you enter their owner's lands and walk you out safely when you leave 🙂
100% spot on about differences between western and eastern Europe. I settled in Romania about 8 years ago, originally from England and have never regretted the move once. Its my home now and will be for the rest of my days. Real village people are the salt of the earth, hard work and hard life but they have what they need and will always welcome you. One of the main reasons I moved to Romania is I value that sense of community and family and also the religion suits me. Plus just a beautiful country with a long long history. It would be a great place for you to move to.
Romania is beautiful and people tend to be decent to guests especially but also a lot of foreigners go to the extremes of either an overly negative view based on exaggerated stereotypes, or an overly positive, romanticized view based in being a white, west european/american expat in a poorer country. Yes, as a westerner you can live amazingly in Romania and you're likely to, overall, be treated extra well and most expats don't live on the average salaries of the average person here. But village life for the average villager is tough and there's few opportunities, there's a lot of work, a lot of poverty, a lot of generational trauma caused by these conditions and lack of mental health support and education so there's a lot of violence, verbal, emotional and physical, a lot of alcohol abuse, a lot of s*xual abuse, kids growing up with angry, disenfranchised, traditionalist parents who end up like them. Yes, life in eastern europe/the balkans is great as a white, male, west european because you can always go back home, you work in corporations, get western salaries or come with some money acquired there and have that aura of the emancipated westerner from better, richer lands that influence how you are treated. If you're a lower/lower middle class east euro/balkan, more so if you're also a woman life isn't so great but you were probably looking for that non woke, religious, traditional family values thing that hurt everyone who isn't you
@@entity22you better hurry up and ask the peasant "geboren en getogen" there what were the Orthodox traditional family values of his parents and grandparents there. I am pretty sure that after decades of communism nobody has any idea of what that really meant. On the contrary I came to the opinion that who was coming there was to attack the "woke" unsuspecting people.

This video brings back fond memories when I visited Alba Julia in 1996. One day we went up into the mountains, an hours drive away and it was like going back into another world.. we went through a small gorge and later we climbed up high up onto the mountain side, where we thought there was an almost deserted village. We met two of the inhabitants who are very friendly. Ah yes, the Tuica! Very powerful schnapps type of drink.
the dog just took you in the pack, this is why he marked your camper. that dog will remember you forever and it will recognise you by your walking before your smell. the mark is mostly for bears. that was a rare dog, bonded with the family.
They are the direct descendants of the Dacians, our ancestors from the ancient Kingdom of Dacia - actual Romania , from 2000 years ago. Here is a continuous living from antiquity. Here they are happy in nature, simple life.
My wife is from Romania. We go back several times a year and plan to move there fulltime in a years when our youngest is done with high school. You have to either be a Romanian or EU citizen to own the actual land or you can own it through an entity if you are not a Romanian or EU citizen. You can also get a permit use for the land. You can easily own apartments though. Great video! The Romanian people are very hospitable.
The shepherd dogs are only dangerous if they're on duty, so if you don't see their charge anywhere near, they're probably just looking for food. And most of them know humans will give them food eventually. There's always been one dog accompanying me on hikes around Ardeal, and it just makes it that much better.
Since there were no sheep, this was not a shepard's dog. And usually they are not alone, but at least five or more (everything else is useless against bears). The biggest problem today is that nobody wants to work anymore as cioban (shepard), so the sheep owners just let the dogs guard the flock and they probably show up once a day with their ATV. When there is no shepard around and the dogs get angry at you, you have a problem.
You have to get yourself one of those instant translators... great conversation with John Wayne while having some moonshine shots.I've been living in Romania since 1988. Its natural beauties are out this world.. People are respectful,friendly , family oriented, and very talented.
I am delighted to see some people want to live a life within nature and not consumism ❤. Paradise, what you expect it to be where...we are already in it and destroying. May God will bring people together in wisdom.
Thank you for sharing, I know that I can’t live completely off grid like that but I certainly admire those that can, looking forward to your next video!
well last 4/5 years we almost had no winter in Romania but in Mountain side it might be a little cold! For example 10/15 years ago we used to had very hard winters like 50/60 cm of snow with streets closed and places stuck because of the storm, last year we had same problem with road closed in moldova side wich is North, East region but this bad weather least max 2 weeks or let's say 1 month... long time ago we used to have winter from november to march! Now with this global warming we used to have mountain zone like Poiana Brasov (skating zone some time ago) with no snow at all... not even the artificial snow can least because of the weather on ++
I have tears in my eyes as I watch this. I am of Romanian descent (my grandfather, deceased 1967) and against the wishes of my father I backpacked into Romania in 1977 as I made my way through Greece, Macedonia and Yugoslavia. The most brutal of all communist dictators, Nicolae Ceausescu, was in power. I had a terrible experience with customs and the police, and I'm sure I was watched the entire ten days I spent there. Few people were friendly, most were either suspicious or begging me with tears in their eyes for something like my t-shirt or jeans. I left Romania heartbroken and depressed, yet full of empathy for the country of my ancestors and it's people. Can you imagine then how your journey has touched me? Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
Welcome to Romania brother, thank you for showing the world the Romania beautiful land and unique nature and old traditions. Good luck in the future travelling!🧳
I’m happy for you and grateful that you’ve chosen to explore the beauties of Romania. I wish you nothing but wonderful experiences. Unfortunately, I can’t say I had the same in Belgium. During a trip through Belgium, I stopped at a gas station and asked for a pack of cigarettes in English (as it’s the only foreign language I speak). The cashier, with a decidedly unfriendly and impolite expression, reminded me that people speak French in Belgium (a language I regrettably don’t know). I apologized in English and said that it wasn’t an issue, and I’d try my luck at the next station. That was enough to tell me all I needed to know about Belgian hospitality.
In Belgium there is a language war going on; the eastern part (Wallonië) people speak French, the western part (Vlaanderen) people speak Dutch... And specially in Wallonië they often refuse to speak Dutch... I'm from the Netherlands and i don't speak French, so i had also such a rude experience...🤨🫣🥴😔 But there are also a lot of very friendly Belgian people ✨💖✨
Greetings from Finland! This was my first time watching videos and I liked what I saw 🤗 , I will watch more. Thank you and I wish you success and happiness in your life!☺️👍❤️🔥
Loved this video. People are wonderful with open hearts. I like Romania. I never went there but watched everything about those living off grid. A lot of old people. How they manage to still work so hard at an old age. Unbelievable. Bless them. ❤
Super nice one Tim! What the man wanted to say about Maramures is that in antiquity Romans did not conquer there were the free Dacians. Otherwise our region of Maramures was under Hungarian Kingdom rule for centuries and also under Austro-Hungarian administration since 1867.....

@@DennyPop-zx7bb it belongs to Europeans that you are taking from us and calling us a races, white supremacy while minorities move into our land and take our land from us and kill my white family. It’s a European nation that you’re on my land you walked in and took my land.
As a Romanian guy I laughed a lot..All their lives the Romanians admired western civilization and wanted to live like "the American dream" and now the Americans and other western European people began to come to find isolated places in the mountains to flee from the greed of capitalism. This is where corporate capitalism brought us.
@Kikiryki You forget Communism, caused their leading Bastards was always Capitalists. Today the Play the Democravy Game, the Power behind are always greedy Capitalists. We all getting fooled by different Parties which playing the Democracy Game, without to know what Democracy mean. We getting told that comes from Greec language. Demos = Folk Cratos = Govern But the old Greec Word Demos having a Total other meaning. When cooking ANIMAL fat to seperaten the Solid from the liquid Part appearing on the surface a Kind of Vaporating Water and dirt which is fished and thrown away, I call it Scum. So simply Said: Democracy mean the ruling of Scum and this is 100% what it is.😂
make sure you protect your lands your values your traditions and dont let anyone to come and start making business out of you and turn it into a village first then a capitalistic venture into a city.. Look what happened to Bali and the uncontacted tribes of the amazon forests. They are all the puppets of western culture tourists who cannot do any introspection they keep going to places instead of going inside and learn to sit still and be happy wherever they are. tourism is the most stupid thing anyone can do.
Fascinating landscape greenery hills. Limited families in this village. They survive life on farming. Though access is much difficult. You have explored awesome village. Great ful for your endeavours
Exactly how you said you don’t see this hospitality in Western Europe . 5 years and you don’t drink a beer with your neighbours 😂😂😂😂 . So ridiculous. In Romanian villages they never heard about racism or xenophobia. I’m a Romanian living abroad for 15 years and fed up about everything I really forgot what’s the real life is . I keep watching video o RUclips about my country and I really feel blessed because I’m Eastern European.
The dog was your guardian! My grandmother tells me that if I'm in a faraway place, lost and I see a dog, not be scared because it will guide me and take me to safety! The dog is't a "spirit"! But, if he barks at me, to go far without looking back, because he does not wish me well (like in life).....So deep and proufound my Romanian grandparents!
Very beautiful part of the country and a special place, but not even close to being the most remote village in Romania. The staircase is not the only entrance to the village, actually you cand drive there from the opposite side.
Its never to cold in wintertime, you can be ill prepared.... Buy a good wood stove, warm down or wollen blankets, woolen clothes, warm hat, shoes, and there you go! 🥃💪🏼🐑🦙🔥☃️❄️

I reckon this is what most of the rest of the world lost 😔😔 I must admit, it was silly of me but I really did not think there were places left like this in Europe, a place where you can't even use a car to get there. What's crazy is that I'm in London and pretty much match your story of the house and not knowing neighbours so I was actually about 3hrs ago looking for places in Bulgaria, thanks to you and this wonderful clip Romania is now on my list as well. The people def made me smile, so honest and open and smiling and you can feel its honest. Thanks again mate!!! Its a shame you could not stay over a night in that place, reckon you going to regret not doing that... ❤❤ BTW, I've subbed!!! If you did not want the dog to pee on your wheel then you should not have parked there 🤣🤣
I was thinking to just say thank you for speaking so nice about the country that i was born , i had no ideea about inelet but these lifestyle that u have found there is not uncommon.people work hard the land like is still 19th century, like Alex said if he doesn't feel the invisible shackles and hes happy thats amazing! As for your questions regarding winter , we use wood for heating or electricity conversion.. i would imagine few extra pounds to have one of those heaters for winter time ..and let me tell you winter are not what they used to be.. if i had 50k i would move back. 3ha of land for 30k amazing deal for that lady Good luck in your travels and you have my respects!

You have to either be a Romanian or EU citizen to own the actual land or you can own it through an entity if you are not a Romanian or EU citizen. You can also get a permit use for the land. You can easily own apartments though. Great video! The Romanian people are very hospitable.
The shepherd dogs are only dangerous if they're on duty, so if you don't see their charge anywhere near, they're probably just looking for food. And most of them know humans will give them food eventually. There's always been one dog accompanying me on hikes around Ardeal, and it just makes it that much better.
Since there were no sheep, this was not a shepard's dog. And usually they are not alone, but at least five or more (everything else is useless against bears).
The biggest problem today is that nobody wants to work anymore as cioban (shepard), so the sheep owners just let the dogs guard the flock and they probably show up once a day with their ATV. When there is no shepard around and the dogs get angry at you, you have a problem.

I LOVE Romania and its amazing people. very authentic and generous

As someone who grew up in a rural area, this place feels great.I'd surely grow veggies and fruit-bearing trees here.
You have to get yourself one of those instant translators... great conversation with John Wayne while having some moonshine shots.I've been living in Romania since 1988. Its natural beauties are out this world.. People are respectful,friendly , family oriented, and very talented.
@moradal
Too much Moonshine will shorten your Life.
Thank you i miss honesty and kindness ! What has happen to People? If you nice and respectfull ,ther think you after somthing !
No. You should learn some basics of the language, before going to a foreign country.
I am delighted to see some people want to live a life within nature and not consumism ❤. Paradise, what you expect it to be where...we are already in it and destroying. May God will bring people together in wisdom.
Thank you for sharing, I know that I can’t live completely off grid like that but I certainly admire those that can, looking forward to your next video!
well last 4/5 years we almost had no winter in Romania but in Mountain side it might be a little cold! For example 10/15 years ago we used to had very hard winters like 50/60 cm of snow with streets closed and places stuck because of the storm, last year we had same problem with road closed in moldova side wich is North, East region but this bad weather least max 2 weeks or let's say 1 month... long time ago we used to have winter from november to march! Now with this global warming we used to have mountain zone like Poiana Brasov (skating zone some time ago) with no snow at all... not even the artificial snow can least because of the weather on ++
I have tears in my eyes as I watch this. I am of Romanian descent (my grandfather, deceased 1967) and against the wishes of my father I backpacked into Romania in 1977 as I made my way through Greece, Macedonia and Yugoslavia. The most brutal of all communist dictators, Nicolae Ceausescu, was in power. I had a terrible experience with customs and the police, and I'm sure I was watched the entire ten days I spent there. Few people were friendly, most were either suspicious or begging me with tears in their eyes for something like my t-shirt or jeans. I left Romania heartbroken and depressed, yet full of empathy for the country of my ancestors and it's people. Can you imagine then how your journey has touched me? Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
Welcome to Romania brother, thank you for showing the world the Romania beautiful land and unique nature and old traditions.
Good luck in the future travelling!🧳
I’m happy for you and grateful that you’ve chosen to explore the beauties of Romania. I wish you nothing but wonderful experiences. Unfortunately, I can’t say I had the same in Belgium. During a trip through Belgium, I stopped at a gas station and asked for a pack of cigarettes in English (as it’s the only foreign language I speak). The cashier, with a decidedly unfriendly and impolite expression, reminded me that people speak French in Belgium (a language I regrettably don’t know). I apologized in English and said that it wasn’t an issue, and I’d try my luck at the next station. That was enough to tell me all I needed to know about Belgian hospitality.
indeed: as a Belgian I truely appreciate the kindness of Romanian people... both in Belgium and in Romania...
In Belgium there is a language war going on; the eastern part (Wallonië) people speak French, the western part (Vlaanderen) people speak Dutch... And specially in Wallonië they often refuse to speak Dutch...
I'm from the Netherlands and i don't speak French, so i had also such a rude experience...🤨🫣🥴😔
But there are also a lot of very friendly Belgian people ✨💖✨
This is the best video I've seen all week. Keep up the great work!
Greetings from Finland! This was my first time watching videos and I liked what I saw 🤗 , I will watch more. Thank you and I wish you success and happiness in your life!☺️👍❤️🔥
Beautiful place ❤so peaceful.watching from kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪
Loved this video.
People are wonderful with open hearts.
I like Romania.
I never went there but watched everything about those living off grid.
A lot of old people.
How they manage to still work so hard at an old age.
Unbelievable.
Bless them.
❤
you have such a worm heart bro much love from a Romanian and Ty for loving my country you are always very welcome
This guy is amazing, well done mate for what you want with your life.
I always love your dialogues with the locals. I’m Romanian and haven’t been to that village. And best advertising 😂getoffmyland
GettoffmyLan, nu land..., e vba de wifi...
aia era reclama "mascata"
Super nice one Tim! What the man wanted to say about Maramures is that in antiquity Romans did not conquer there were the free Dacians. Otherwise our region of Maramures was under Hungarian Kingdom rule for centuries and also under Austro-Hungarian administration since 1867.....
More and more slavicised Dacians obviously
No one noticed he had broadband coverage out there in the wilderness? That`s amazing :)
Thats right, amazing!
Horrible. The so-called progress.
The internet in Romania is one of the best in Europe
@@dubart67"horrible" lmao,ok frate.marṣ în koreea de nord daca nu-ți place wi-fi-ul.personal,prefer sa aflu în mai puțin de 3 zile dacă ruṣii ne atacă
My new favorite travel/exploring channel? I think so.
Just so beautifully made! Thank you so much for taking me on this journey!
Thank you for such an inspiring philosophy through your travels and ideas. Just like you and many others, I intend to live in rural, simple, yet joyful places where people act as human beings and not as technocrats, technoidiots, and technoslaves.
Keep sharing bro,really enjoyed to watch diff culture,watching from Zimbabwe
Oh, how inspiring! Thanks for documenting and sharing this memorable sojourn!
most romanians are really warm people and friendly ... if language barier wasnt a thing youd get along with them even better
village life is rly like that ... nature and warm people
Good sense of humor, be fun to watch. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, beautiful visit to remote Romania.
14:41 I find it amazing how you two communicate, even with the language barrier. Thanks for visiting! ❤🇷🇴
19:10 so much positive energy. Love and regards
Man, property is cheap down there! I just paid 160k EUR for one acre in Czech Republic after half a year of searching. Maybe I should buy a summer house in Romania 😄
Make sure you do t leave s...behind you pick your litter and preserve the nature that country is not free for all !!
I'm building a house there and I tell you that the ladders are not the only access point for Inelet
I am ethnic Romanian living in California and miss Romania, the nature is nice peaceful but the tuica have to be careful because it's like 100 proof and there is yummy healthy Romanian juice like the apple juice cherry juice. 🍎🍒
29:50 Winters are not harsh for a long time In Romania as also the man in Ineleț said 😅 Ask my Belgian friends in Bucharest living for a few years already 👍🏻
thank you, i can tell that you speak from your heart, when you say that you like Romania :)
Dog is marking his territory = he likes you! Nice road trip - thanks - looking forward to more of your travels.
This is a good one Tim....
I am a romanian living far away from Europe. I miss Romania, and I would build a house there, in the mountains, just for the summer. In winter I would come back where I currently live, so the whole year would be just summer for me.
Having a Romanian friend, I had to watch this and subscribe! 🥰
Maaaan 😂😂😂😂 u almost got me with the promo for wi fi 😂😂😂😂 that i was NOT expecting and a very catchy idea for an add 😂😂❤❤❤ well done mate ❤ very well done ❤ now i will continue to watch your video not before I say to you congrats for the idea to go to Inelet the most remote area of Romania ❤ it take a lot of balls to go there cuz the road is so difficult with the stairs and everything . Not many are ready to go there and filming around not bc of the peoples but bc it take a bit of effort . Bro you were faster than me to go there cuz I was planning to do so next year in the summer holliday of 2025 . Good luck and God speed mate where ever you will go ❤❤❤
Awesome Awesome video!!
Thank you 🎉
Great adventure, especially in an environment of friendly, civilised and hospitable locals and appreciating the marvels of nature!!!
🍷🍷👍👍🙏🙏
Romania has the best culture
Corect!
Cancerul american lo distruge
Not really.
Every country has great culture
@@rb2964 You can also live simply, but freely. No appointments, no taxes, less worries. Good for the heart and soul.
@@DennyPop-zx7bb it belongs to Europeans that you are taking from us and calling us a races, white supremacy while minorities move into our land and take our land from us and kill my white family. It’s a European nation that you’re on my land you walked in and took my land.
Very good village .Natural surrounding.
As a Romanian guy I laughed a lot..All their lives the Romanians admired western civilization and wanted to live like "the American dream" and now the Americans and other western European people began to come to find isolated places in the mountains to flee from the greed of capitalism. This is where corporate capitalism brought us.
@Kikiryki
You forget Communism, caused their leading Bastards was always Capitalists.
Today the Play the Democravy Game, the Power behind are always greedy Capitalists.
We all getting fooled by different Parties which playing the Democracy Game, without to know what Democracy mean.
We getting told that comes from Greec language.
Demos = Folk
Cratos = Govern
But the old Greec Word Demos having a Total other meaning.
When cooking ANIMAL fat to seperaten the Solid from the liquid Part appearing on the surface a Kind of Vaporating Water and dirt which is fished and thrown away, I call it Scum.
So simply Said:
Democracy mean the ruling of Scum and this is 100% what it is.😂
make sure you protect your lands your values your traditions and dont let anyone to come and start making business out of you and turn it into a village first then a capitalistic venture into a city.. Look what happened to Bali and the uncontacted tribes of the amazon forests. They are all the puppets of western culture tourists who cannot do any introspection they keep going to places instead of going inside and learn to sit still and be happy wherever they are. tourism is the most stupid thing anyone can do.
Fascinating landscape greenery hills. Limited families in this village.
They survive life on farming.
Though access is much difficult.
You have explored awesome village. Great ful for your endeavours
Exactly how you said you don’t see this hospitality in Western Europe . 5 years and you don’t drink a beer with your neighbours 😂😂😂😂 . So ridiculous. In Romanian villages they never heard about racism or xenophobia. I’m a Romanian living abroad for 15 years and fed up about everything I really forgot what’s the real life is . I keep watching video o RUclips about my country and I really feel blessed because I’m Eastern European.
Seeing your vlogs makes my day
And i'm getting kinda inspired by you and and your adventures
The dog was your guardian! My grandmother tells me that if I'm in a faraway place, lost and I see a dog, not be scared because it will guide me and take me to safety! The dog is't a "spirit"! But, if he barks at me, to go far without looking back, because he does not wish me well (like in life).....So deep and proufound my Romanian grandparents!
Wow.. what a beautiful place and beautiful people.. thanks for the free tour.. watching all the way from the Philippines
Thank you for video, always look forward to the next one. 👍
Thank you for taking me along on this voyage to the village. I benefited from it.
Alej
Hi
charming way to travel. a charming place.
bravo Tim
12:15 i don't know how that conversation was so smooth even though there s a big language barrier lol
The Google translate app. And sign language, and body language.
@@jeremyh.6704 yeah, still, it was perfect
Loved the interactions, you earned one more sub. :D
I dont know what a Romanian said but i enjoy your video. Have a good time. Happy all the way
the subtitles are acurate.
Awesome video in the countryside of Romania away from the noisy cities.
Great video, very interesting T.U😊
Very beautiful part of the country and a special place, but not even close to being the most remote village in Romania. The staircase is not the only entrance to the village, actually you cand drive there from the opposite side.
Its never to cold in wintertime, you can be ill prepared.... Buy a good wood stove, warm down or wollen blankets, woolen clothes, warm hat, shoes, and there you go! 🥃💪🏼🐑🦙🔥☃️❄️
it barely reaches -15 in romania nowadays, even in harghita
Vous pouvez acheter une vieille maison comme investissement et la louer. Vous avez l’avantage de vous promouvoir en français et en espagnol. En tant que Roumain installé en France, je peux honnêtement dire que de nombreux Français aimeraient visiter la Roumanie, mais ils ont peur. Ils ont été "surpris d'apprendre que nous n'avons pas de queue et que nous ne vivons pas dans les arbres". 😂 Bons voyages !
Absolutely beautiful. Freedom and nature is the best way to live. Dogs can run free. I love it there.
Best In-Video Advert ever!
Great video man, it's a nice place to live.
Ahaha, bro took 4 shots of tuica like a champ, cheers to you!
That tuica is thin, it's like the piss of a big girl... come to Transylvania to see how a tuica should be
Hey welcome back!
Now this was awesome to watch!!! ❤❤ Two strangers, not really able to speak but communicating and having a nice sit around a table and a few shots... I reckon this is what most of the rest of the world lost 😔😔 I must admit, it was silly of me but I really did not think there were places left like this in Europe, a place where you can't even use a car to get there. What's crazy is that I'm in London and pretty much match your story of the house and not knowing neighbours so I was actually about 3hrs ago looking for places in Bulgaria, thanks to you and this wonderful clip Romania is now on my list as well. The people def made me smile, so honest and open and smiling and you can feel its honest. Thanks again mate!!! Its a shame you could not stay over a night in that place, reckon you going to regret not doing that... ❤❤ BTW, I've subbed!!!
If you did not want the dog to pee on your wheel then you should not have parked there 🤣🤣
Legend 😎😎😎
The winters are magical here with a simple fire place :) But our landscapes beats the hell out of Spain or other coutries ❤
Thank you for presenting our beautiful country Romania.
I was thinking to just say thank you for speaking so nice about the country that i was born , i had no ideea about inelet but these lifestyle that u have found there is not uncommon.people work hard the land like is still 19th century, like Alex said if he doesn't feel the invisible shackles and hes happy thats amazing! As for your questions regarding winter , we use wood for heating or electricity conversion.. i would imagine few extra pounds to have one of those heaters for winter time ..and let me tell you winter are not what they used to be.. if i had 50k i would move back. 3ha of land for 30k amazing deal for that lady
Good luck in your travels and you have my respects!
I love East Europe. Hoping to visit Romania someday
I have to give you a like and subscribe just because I live Belgium, but I am from Romania. I miss my country a lot. I hope you have a good time along with good people. Doesn't matter if you understand or not. Just enjoy quality time in nature
