Greetings from Romania!

Hello everyone. First of all I want to appologize for any bad english. It’s not my primary language so feel free to correct me if you find mistakes in my posts. In this way I have the opportunity to improve my writing skills. This being my first post I want to tell you a bit about me and share with you some of the beautiful places of the region I live in. If you like to travel I hope that you will find them interesting enough and perhaps you will decide to come and take a closer look. You might have noticed that I don’t use the word country. I don’t cause I don’t believe in this concept. Seen from up above, the Earth doesn’t have borders. We are all humans!

About me in a few words : I’m the father of an one and a half years old amazing boy who since he discovered walking won’t stay still for a minute  I don’t have any political or religious views. I do believe that a better world is possible without central planning and rulers and orders and so on. What do I do for a living? I’m a forex trader who had a lot of ups and downs, I didn’t become a millionaire trading and I’m not planning to become one. Life isn’t about money. But enough about me for now, let me tell you a few words about this beautiful region that is called Romania!

Here you can find some UNESCO World heritage sites:

In Brasov (city) you can find the largest gothic church between Vienna and Istanbul. It’s called “Biserica Neagra” (The Black church) and another interesting fact about it is that it owns Europe's biggest organ with 4000 pipes. It owns also the biggest bell in Romania, weighing 6.3 tons.
