Romania, Family travel
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.

There 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.

About me
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.

wanting to discover new places through the knowledge and warmth of locals, to connect with people from different cultures and also trying to travel sustainably and without spending too much money 🍊 my love for adventure really began in my semester of erasmus in Thessaloniki (forever grateful for this experience), period in which i travelled to 6 countries with my friends and developed a great way of interacting with people and both learning about their culture and having fun, which gave me and still gives me a lot of meaning ⭐️ happy to be anywhere doing anything meeting people!!! strangers are friends you haven't met yet

About me
Hey girls my name is Alexandra i was born and still live in Romania, i havent visited that many places yet because I always felt i like i had to follow society's rules and achieve things in life before maybe relaxing and traveling but I realised that material objects did not make me happy and i am ready to live life to the fullest. I currently live in Iasi and would love to host any of you who would like to visit, i can show you around, i think i would be a good guide heheh. I would say you can visit most of the interesting places in 2 days so its not a very big city. Id like to make friends all over the globe and perhaps i will visit you as well someday, of you'll have me of course 🤭

About me
I’m someone who likes to connect, I also like honesty, and self-growth. I enjoy learning about people, noticing small details, and bringing warmth into the spaces I’m in. I’m thoughtful, curious, and always becoming a better version of myself. Short, human, and basic , or painfully specific, that’s also doable.
