been living in DE for 4 years and the UK for 1. I moved back to RO because i did not like the weather and the mentality of the west. i bought myself a small studio apt in bucuresti. tips: 1.seal off all the flats airvents as well as the under the sink maintenance doors as the bugs can get in through there. 2. minimize gvnmt interaction as much as possible by using online websites. 3. set AC to 22-23 on low and get an auto air humidifier. depending on the temp, the air can carry more/less moisture. the auto humidifier will put the right amount of water into the air at all times. if you have a dry nose, it will do a worse job at filtering dust and microbes. P.S. If i were god, i would go over leeds, harehills with an eraser

9:06 De cate ori ascult cantecul asta(Muica - Tudor Gheorghe) mi se face pielea de gaina... Imi aduc aminte de vremurile Craiovei Maxima cand ma duceam cu echipa la meciurile din deplasare. Am fost si in orasul lui Ceausescu cand inca traia, am facut aproape revolutie in orasul lui Nicu Ceausescu(Sibiu) cand ne-au furat ca sa nu jucam in cupele Europene. Despre echipa asta am sentimente mixte, simt ca nu ma reprezinta nici ea nici cealalta, Craiova Maxima a fost, acum sunt niste simple echipe manageriate de oameni nu foarte ok! Pacat de stadion, inca nu am fost pe acest stadion si nici n-am dorinta sa o fac. Daca era o contiunuitate in echipa de fotbal simteam ca ma reprezinta, dar astia au aparut din senin si nu ma reprezinta. S-a vazut si acum a cata oara ca nu pot trece nici macar de primul tur European. Oricum, toate recordurile de spectatori au fost stabilite pe vechiul stadion(Central), au fost chiar si 50000+ pe un stadion de 32000.

Hello. Greetings. I just have fount your video here. As someone that had tried to escape Romania forever in the last 12 years because I don t like how people get angry very easy from nothing without reason......and recently I was ending at psychiatry to discover that I am suspected to schiztopal antisocial personality disorder..... The main reason is due stressfull behavior and way of life wide spreaded in Romania. I wonder why you would like to come in eastern Europe in a former communist country , were people in the street don t smile, but instead yelling and shouting and stress are way of life. I had plans to remain forever in France, to escape the stressfull life of Romania , i had live in Marseille and Montpellier, but there s no France anymore, it s worst than Romania on the safety/violence level. I know in UK and almost all western world is relatively the same. That s why you had left UK?

Well.....with my condition mentioned above, signs of my personality, usually I don t laugh at no one's jokes, and I find also Romanian humor that incite to violence, it s based on mocking others, arrogance. Romania and Balkan and the rest Slavic countries ( I had meet persons from Russia Poland Ukraine, Czechia and regarding to difficulty , angryness without level they are similar, for example Russia more violent, Czechia less, Poland similar) are better than third world lawless west today , sadly. But not for social life. If you value kindness, goodness and wisdom there you cannot find them in Romania, only in rare exceptions. I just compare how common native ordinary people behave in Romania and in France, Austria, Germany, Italy where I had live before. Just look at the drivers behaviors. It a common in the omania to insult in trafic, to lack of patience. Those who do this have important emotional problems. Which the state must resolve it, with harsh laws. If you go in some stores and you say good day you have much chances to find someone that doesn t answer you back and if you ask more questions details about some products they will make you a grumpy gave and react arrogant with angryness. The same if you go in a state institution, like taxes, finances, or paying your electrical bills. In the western countries that I had mention above is not common to find a native that b have like this. I had encounters persons outside europe, for example at the French work service office a lady from Morocco that was bitter like the public funcționairs in Romania. Because I had encounter too many times this in Romania , my next impulse is to smash that person head, and I have some experiences about this and i find it difficult to control everytime. I find social life in Romania at the same quality of the how look most buildings of the streets.

It's harder than Spanish but easier than Russian. I'll be going to see friends in Constanța in a couple of weeks. Hope the weather cools down a bit.

An enjoyable watch and I concur! I first visited Romania in June 1990 as a back-packer and fell in love with the people (particularly their dark sense of humour and creative ways of swearing!), the beautiful countryside, and home-grown tomatoes that taste like the best fruit on earth. I relocated (also from London) to Bucharest around 12 years ago now and, like you, couldn't be happier. I also have a family here now and we spend our time both in Bucharest and in Bistrita-Nasaud where my wife is from. Learning the language and living "as like a local as possible" is, just like you say, non-negotiable as far as I'm concerned ... the thought of moving somewhere "different" to then surround yourself with folks from back home and talk just about the past is an oxymoron to me too! :)) Anyway, spor la treaba si mult succes in Romania! :)

Fiecărei literă din alfabet îi corespunde un sunet.😊 Plus că limba română nu are atâtea excepții ca în engleză. În engleză, noi la școală primară am învățat că "oo" se citește U, "ee" se citește "i". Păi această regulă are excepții: deși se scrie "door", "floor" nu la fel se pronunță că "roof" 😊. Sau ni s-a spus că pluralul se scrie cu "s" la sfârșitul cuvântului.

It’s a great evaluation. We don’t get in Bucharest planes spraying insecticide over the city, it can be something that city of Craiova does. About the temperature: you must have 3 sets of clothes: winter for -20C with some snow, summer: for 40+C and autumn + spring ( 15-28C ). It’s true that we did not had hard winters in the last 10 years but it’s more of a cycle and when it hits, you feel it. Good to have in house: electric oil heater and AC for the summer. Bureaucracy is something that we get too and it’s something you have to accept. It is safe, especially if you don’t swing/flex with money or gold jewelry. Be normal and everything will be ok. Many people go in west Europe in search of a working society but if you come here with the money of an average person, you live above average in Romania. The only problem is that if you want to go in vacation, you will get a better experience outside of Romania with the same money.
