Activities

This blog is intended to become the must-go site if you’re looking for special and exotic experiences in Romania so, the main areas covered are:

Adventure Tourism

According to Wikipedia, adventure travel is a type of tourism involving exploration or travel to remote, exotic and possibly hostile areas. On this blog, under adventure tourism, you will also find information about active city breaks, themed tours, urban exploration, slum and ghetto tourism (note: no, Romania doesn’t have the “overdeveloped” slums and favelas that can be found in India or South America but, nevertheless, you will find in Romania certain places that, for sure, you won’t find in your country)

Living in Romania can be considered an adventure so I will provide you with plenty of information regarding these types of tourism. For more details – see the posts under “adventure tourism” category

Agrotourism Tourism

How is it to wake up and go to a well to get the water for washing your face? How is it to travel by foot between to villages because there isn’t a road good enough for driving a car (other than 4×4)? How is it to go to the toilet in the back of your garden? How is it to go to sleep after sunset because there isn’t any electricity in your village?

In itself agrotourism is another type of adventure tourism. You will have the chance of living the same way your ancestors did 100 years ago all while learning new cool things so that, when your kid will want to plant a chocolate tree in the garden, or he will ask you about the purple cows he always sees in commercials, you will know what to say.

Cultural Tourism

This area will help you discover Romania and its people through traditions, history, arts, religion, landmarks and other elements that shaped us the way we are.

Also I will try is to present you the details that will help in discovering the real Romania. If you live in Italy or France, you would probably think we are a people of thieves and beggars. On the other hand hundreds of thousants of Romanian people are watching for your children or are working your lands and providing food in your supermarkets. This is a thing you probably didn’t saw it on TV because it isn’t a great headlight like: “Unknown persons pick-pocketed the Prime Minister Main suspects: Romanian Gipsies ”

On the other hand, if you will ask a Romanian citizen how he sees our people, he will undoubtably say that we are hospitable and friendly persons and you,

My aim is to help you navigate through these  clichees with which you are bombarded (and when I say you, I reffer both to Romanian and foreign persons)  and to present you the real Romanian with its good and not-so-good atributes.
