My stepfather is from Telega, a town near the capital. It is entertaining and familiar, you can see many interesting things and the food is delicious, plus the people are quite friendly and really helpful.
Posted: April 7, 2026Experienced: July, 2025There was mountains. It was very beautiful. I was eating langoasa with sheep cheese. Everything was good. The nature is wanderful. There are bears, lovely bears. Also there is a monastery in mountains

The experience was quite nice. You can sightsee here a lot because the City is small. Also you can use the tramway to go everywhere. Bailey Felix, Bear Cave, Piata Uniri are the famous places to see.

Bucharest is generally safe to very safe especially during the day. During the night you have to be careful, especially as a women, but not more than in other European cities I'd say. However, in Netherlands I was feeling safer by night than here, but I never had any incidents in Bucharest either.

Throughout the day it is very safe objectively. Ofc some unexpected stuff might happen like honking catcalling but those are either minor or just rare. Everytime I visit it I haven't seen any homeless or drunkards throughout the day

I feel Bucharest is actually safer than a lot of capitals in western Europe, I rarely feel unsafe at night, especially in my neighborhood. But I hope I'm not just biased because I'm used to the culture. Maybe the old center and Piata Unirii are the places that i would say are the sketchiest.

Honestly ive lived here my whole life and never had anything happen to me even at night even when i was by myself. You get the random catcalling sometimes but overall its a safe town. People are nice and mind their own business i would however be weary near gypsies no racism but they are often out to steal. I say this from experience. Be alert.

I'm Lia, 29, and I was born in Timisoara, Romania. I love traveling and would love to meet new people who I can share some of my travels with. I walked the Camino de Santiago in 2024 (from Sant Jean Pied de Port in France to Santiago de Compostela in Spain, and then on to Finisterre and Muxia - about 900km on foot) and it's been the most fulfilling experience of my life, especially since I did it solo. I love to travel for concerts (so far I've seen Noah Kahan, Billie Eilish, Rosalia, The Last Dinner Party, Chappell Roan, Brandi Carlile, and a few others) but also to visit theme parks (I'm a rollercoaster enthusiast and would love to connect with more women who love to chase the thrills). I speak fluent English and Romanian, but I also can have a decent conversation in Spanish. When I'm not traveling, I'm an independent artist (singer/songwriter and busker) and a guitar/voice teacher. I also volunteer with a queer organization and have worked as an Erasmus+ trainer on Digital Storytelling for the queer community.
