Romania is a destination that charms the hearts of all who dare to explore it. Medieval castles perched on top of steep cliffs, villages that appear to have just stepped out of the middle ages, and centuries-old myths and legends make Romania a land of fairy tales. In order to find out what Romania looks like to a foreigner, we talked with a few travel bloggers who visited our country. In the following weeks, we will discover their stories, their experiences, and their motivation for visiting Romania.
Justin is a blogger who loves wild destinations. He visited Romania for the first time together with his mother when he was just 2 years old, and he returned several years later to explore and discover it.
