Some things you might have missed about Romania.
The simple people that you find everywhere. Sometimes poor, sometimes less educated, all surprised by the 21st century, struggling old and new ways, technology and mythology in amazing forms and formulas.

I have been asked why only the poor... I guess they still have time to be themselves, without fashion uniforms and wealth gadgets, only with their humble yet sometimes so noble attitude. They are not always poor. Though lacking so many things, though covered in a slumber and heavy perception of the future, they live their life as if that very future wouldn't matter. A sense of liberty so hard to spot in the cities... a bit of chaos... the bit that makes life bearable.
So ... I guess that is why the not so wealthy are presented here, they are the genuine ones.
If in your journeys in Romania you find this folks, you will love Romania as a sweet addiction to simplicity...

Photos taken between 2005-2009
