The Carpathian mountains.
I’m 33 and have phimosis
They are the Carpatos mountain range , the road is on Fagaras mountains, i went to Brasov , Cluj-Napoca , a place he didn't refereed that is Salina Turda , and a small beach town just in Bulgaria border
Romania has about ten or more mountain ranges….Carpathian, Transylvanian Alps, Apuseni Mountains, Leaota Nountains,, Parang Mountains and many more.
My friend visited Draculya's Castle in 2007, though it is actually his brother's 😉
The Ottomans occupied Hungary and Romania. The Alps end in Austria.
Yay! My home country! 😁
Romanian is indeed a Romance language. Saw Corvin Castle, there was a man playing medieval music on a mandolin there. I'm surprised they didn't show Peles Castle.
I went to Romania three times, doing development work with their criminal justice agencies. It is a beautiful country with friendly people, who were always happy to share whatever they had. However many of the cities had had their historic centres flattened to provide areas where triumphant parades could be held to celebrate President Ceaușescu. I did try and learn some of the language: because it has the same origins as Romance languages such as French and Spanish, it was quite easy to pick up some vocabulary but the grammar defeated me.
The Ottomans defeated Romania but they were not occupied. It was more of a forced client kingdom thing. But no Romania was not part of the ottoman empire.
I live close to those castles, but to be honest until now i havent appreciated them enough
Don't beat yourself up. You're learning now and that's all that matters.
Romanian is the third closest language to latin after Italian and Spanish so you could say Romanians are more latin than French 🙂
Hey McJibbin, come in Europe ! For a month. If you pass by Alsace, France, it will be a pleasure to welcome you !
More about Romania will be found (if you like nature) in many documentary series by Charlie Ottley: Wild Carpathia and Flavors of Romania.
!
Of course many americans believe romanian it is soviet country! Wrong!
TIPS: Watch youtube chanel: jetlag warriors.
Canadian couple vist Romania multiple times, with 100 video about România YOU have option to make video reaction.
You know what mean: Mici ori mititei? Watch jetlag warriors channel.
Romania still has roman ruins?
I liked Romania a lot – Bucharest and Brasov in Winter. Amazing trains for some reason too.
10:57 Romania really made something out of it since it is in the EU.
Romania is one of the most underrated countries to visit. I was there in June, and will come back soon. I recommend Timisoara, Brasov and Sighisoara. I also went into the forest by myself, and could see a wolf and some bears. Connor; You have to look into eastern (well, central) europe more!! Poland and Hungary is beautiful!!
Yep, been to all of them, since I was born in Transylvania. They're gorgeous by themselves, but the landscape and nature are even more beautiful. I would visit either in spring, when everything is blooming, or in the fall
Thanks for explaining the ‘top the description’ statement; I thought it was an instruction, to top the description (ie to remove or cut off, like we ‘top’ vegetables or Rhode Islanders ‘top’ their weenies). Americans can be a bit spooky and this often shows in their confusing use of English or their assumption that others know what they mean – and we all do it! It’s no big deal and I have still enjoyed some of your programmes – especially when you laugh uncontrollably; that cheers me up ‘no end’ (no offence!). And, I hope you stop hating the Romanians soon!😂
I’ve been to Romania twice & stayed in Bucharest. I visited Bran Castle & was a little disappointed by the interior (I was expecting gothic gloom but it was surprisingly light & airy). Still a great experience & was fun seeing the locals selling products based on the vampiric legend – Dracula whiskey, anyone!
Can you react to Croatia national parks
Hello, McAmerican from England! 😛 Romanian here. 1. We have all 4 seasons, albeit shortened these last years a bit, because of climate changes. Want to see sun, rain, leaves changing or snow – just go outside is how it works here. Lots of green places, lakes, rivers, a salt water Black Sea, forests, underground salt mines and glaciers, mountains to hike or snowboard/ski on. USA has all those too, except a sea. Ocean is bigger, though. 2. We have the closest Romance language to Latin, especially in grammar. Romanian is basically Neo-Latin with loans of words from all the people that raided, traded or tried to conquer Us. 3. Food is delicious, simple, hearty, healthy, organic, most people here own an apartment and another house in the countryside with a farm and grow their own stuff. And, of course, make their own tasty wines and brandy from all the fruits you can imagine. 4. People are friendly and welcoming and love to share what little or much they have with you. We're are very hard on each other and like to find flaws, but that's a good thing: it helps things improve. Weird thing is, while Romanians, much like other Latins, love to complain, they are really proud people and don't like being slandered. Not that they won't joke about it when you actually do. Our sense of humor is very banter-ish and sometimes dark. We don't get offended easily. We have A LOT of history, been through a lot and that made Romanians have a thicker skin and find witty solutions to obstacles. 5. Stop dying inside and book a flight already! You have the fastest internet and the cheapest in the world here, lots of advantages from the Government for nomad vlog travelers, and 90 days of Visa stay for non EU tourists. Lots to see before they can kick you out, but you can trick it and visit other EU countries for a while and come back for more 😉 Noroc! (=Cheers!)
There is no link between Dracula and Vlad the Impaler, Dracula is 100% fiction. And Vlad's castle is Poenari Castle, now it's just a ruin but it's in a spot that would make life very difficult for any attackers so it's quite cool that way.
As a French I went to Romania quite a few times because it's really cheap and it's gorgeous ! This country is so underrated, in Western Europe people don't imagine how beautiful this country is.
your failed sneeze attempt made my day 🙂
actualy the black sea has a lower concentration of salt(16-18gr/l) than other seas or oceans(34-37gr/l)!
I'm Romanian and I visited some of these places, but not all. Funny or not, I visited more places outside of Romania (I travel each year to a different country, mostly European though). Romania is on par with most of the other countries, at least from a natural beauty point on view.
TBH, every country is beautiful. But if you live in that country you do not appreciate it as much. BTW I wa in Romani in 2011 and I must agree, it is a really beautiful country and I hope I will have change to visit it once again.
I disagree with you, Connor: Rick Steves' Europe documentaries are infinitely better than those of the channel you feature which, imo, is limited to beautiful postcard-like pictures and very poor comments.
For comparison, here's Rick Steves' take on the same subject (on YT): "Romania" – Rick Steves' Europe
I had a great time in Brasov. It was just after the revolution so there were bullet holes everywhere. However it was winter and the snow was perfect for skiing. The food was a bit suspect, I’m sure the burgers were rat (very tasty). Went to Bran Castle and made sure all my pictures were black and white (long before digital photography). Very spooky place.
