Yesterday’s headlines

Today’s video

Check out this video from EscapeAway, They went to Romania in ‘Search of Dracula’ and brought back home this amazing 4K footage. Here’s what they said about their trip:

“Many questioned our journey to Romania. In fact, many people said there’s really nothing to see. But of course, we were determined to see for ourselves. We immediately ditched the capital of Bucharest where most tourists and travelers end up and headed to discover the mountainous Transylvanian region. It only took several days until we really started appreciating our decision to visit here. The windy roads of Transfăgărășan took our breath away, and cities like Sibiu won us over with their medieval city charm. People were beautiful and friendly, food was incredibly cheap and the landscapes were incredible. Matter of fact, we spent what was left of our journey on the last day in Bucharest, and even the capital proved to be much more beautiful than described to us. Overall, Romania offers plenty to see for tourists, backpackers and travelers alike.”
