The story of one South African's journey emigrating to Romania, one blog post at a time. If only it were as easy as: "I hopped on a plane. The end." However it isn't, and that's a Very Good Thing for this blog. It's definitely not touristy - containing a lot of detailed insights into Romanian culture and problems. If you like it, please share the blog link!
