As long as nice summer weather lasts I'm not wasting my time during the weekends. During my drive home from my previous weekend trip I noticed an interesting looking gorge and I decided to come back here to check it out. Then I found out that the area has several Orthodox monasteries worth visiting, one of them even part of the UNESCO World Heritage.
Once I work in Romania for a year I have the chance to travel around the country...
Last weekend saw me exploring the Carpathian Mountains again. This time I went to Bucsecs, a mountain area just 2 hours drive from Bucharest, just at the border of Transylvania. This area is characteristic of its enormous rock faces but I saw some other friendly faces as well!
Since work brought me to Romania for a year I use my weekends to travel around the country whenever the weather permits. Last weekend was my first longer trip and my destination was Brasov / Brassó / Kronstadt, a beautiful old city on the Southern border of Transylvania.
My very good friend and climbing partner Istvan went out on the “hunt” again! As he hasn’t worked much on his English since his last post, he asked me to post for him again which I happily did because I think that his photos are just as wonderful as his winged models. Enjoy!
Work takes people to all kinds of strange places so it took me to Bucharest for an entire year!
I just love snow! Or so I thought ...
The past month we've had a lot of snow ...
The weather was not only nice to the English this weekend but also to the Hungarian. So we used one of the last summer weekends and went out to have some fun at a Hungarian limestone quarry I posted on a few months earlier.
