This is the second part of my adventure when I made a day trip to both Bran and Rasnov. I actually knew nothing about Rasnov prior to going there other than friends told me to stop and look around after seeing Bran Castle. I really enjoyed wandering around the area[…]
Dracula, Bran Castle, Vampires, Transylvania, Romania, and Undead are all themes surrounding the tourist industry in Brasov, Romania. I made a day trip from Brasov out to Bran to see the famous castle. You get to see a near complete walk-through of the castle (at high speed) along with some[…]
I friend found a spot on my back that I didn’t know existed. They think it is skin cancer and I decided I need to go to a dermatologist while in Romania. So, this video is about my experience at the doctor and my diagnosis (no spoilers here). […]
I received a couple of questions from viewers about hostels. In this episode I answer questions about what a hostel is and why I love them. I provide a guided tour of the Jungen Stube Hostel in Brasov, Romania (this is a unpaid video review).

I spent two nights in Iasi, Romania (and one full day). Mostly this city was a stop-over break as I headed to Brasov as I didn’t want to spend that much time traveling and thought I’d breakup the trip by a spot here. The city was quite nice with some[…]
I took a small bus over very rough roads to cross from Chișinău Moldova to Iasi, Romania; this is a 3 hour journey plus an hour at the border. Shortly after I arrived I was swarmed by giant black birds (just like the movie) and then attacked by a dog![…]
I took a train and traveled from Odessa Ukraine, through Transnistria where guards checked passports and made sure we stayed on the train, and on to Chisinau Moldova where I spent one day exploring the city.
