Thank you for sharing robrigo, it brings me back a few years when I visited Romania. Actually we took a 2 weeks road trip in the country and were absolutely loving it!

I can definitely see why Ernest is mentioning nativism. Romania is made up of several "tribes" if one can say that. That was at least my experience. We once lived in a little village in Transylvania which had been a village populated by German immigrants (Saxons), but when Ceaușescu kicked them out the village was then repopulated by Romanians and Romas. Today 90% of them were Romas.

People were really friendly and one evening I was invited home to one of them for a little party. I most definitely got acquainted with Tuica! Although I enjoyed it at the time, this exact night saturated my Tuica cravings.. I was hung over for 3 days
