ROMANIA EXPLAINED TO MY FRIENDS ABROAD: TAKE AWAY ROMANIA

ROMANIA EXPLAINED TO MY FRIENDS ABROAD: TAKE AWAY ROMANIA

Dear Reader,
You should know from the very beginning this is not an exhaustive, academic paper on Romania; nor is it a travel guide of Romania. Iâ€™m a simple journalist and this is just my own private Romania â€“ a subjective puzzle of all the things I know from experience
to be interesting for foreign tourists.

Iâ€™ve been working for the Romanian edition of National Geographic for over 13 years. Mostly because of my job Iâ€™ve met many foreigners â€“ either when they visited Romania or when I went abroad. I guess now Iâ€™ve got more friends from the other side of the Earth than from my native land. Iâ€™ve learned a lot from them and from trying to answer their questions:
Do Romanians consider Ceausescu a good or a bad dictator?
Are Gypsies dangerous?
Where do vampires come from?
Why did the Saxons leave Transylvania?
How dangerous is it to ride a bicycle in Bucharest?
Why do most Romanian surnames end in escu?
Where can I find Gerovital?
Recommendations, must-see places?
And so on... I had to research and prepare myself each and every time, for every curiosity they had. After a while, some of these studies became the essays Iâ€™ve collected in this book. Iâ€™m a fan of Montaigneâ€™s Essays whose model Iâ€™ve tried to emulate.

Now Iâ€™m bold enough to think that if you want a bite of Romania and for whatever reason you donâ€™t have the stomach or the time to sample it here â€“ for a month, a year or a lifetime â€“ this is exactly the book you need!
