Thanks to Rick Steves for spotlighting Romania, still a safe, cheap and rewarding place to travel in 2017.

Hometown Baia Mare stands a good chance to become the European Capital of Culture 2021
Comes September 16 2016, a Romania’s Ministry of Culture special committee reunites in an attempt to pick the city to become one of the European Capitals of Culture in 2021. My little Transylvanian hometown Baia Mare is shortlisted alongside three other big cities, and it stands a good chance to get the title!
