In November I had the chance to continue travelling -
to see Romania and some unknown places in Hungary.
On 1st of November Johanna, who is also a German volunteer and lives in
Subotica at the moment, and I started our journey to Romania. It was already
dark, when we arrived in Brașov (german: Kronstadt), a bigger city in
Transylvania. We recognized that it was the Halloween weekend and a lot of
people were there to celebrate “with” Dracula! But we were lucky and found a
cheap, very old hotel with rooms for two.
It looked like Dracula lived there once…
The next days we had enough time to visit the
beautiful Brașov! The November sun was shining while we went on the mountain “Tâmpa”.
Above we had a wonderful sight over the city.
Furthermore we visited the old
town of Brașov, went into the town hall and saw the famous “Black Church”.
We
were lucky because there were a lot of special events, because of Halloween.
For example we joined a festival in an old castle and the “Dracula Horror Film
Festival”.
We got some nice presents for free like Shirts which glow in the
dark and false glowing teeth. I am sure they will be a nice momento.
On Sunday we visited Sibiu (Hermannstadt). We met with
another German volunteer there who guided us through the city. So we had the
chance to see all the important sights of the city with some significant facts.
We spent a really nice time in Romania – I really love
this country and would love to go back!!!
For me it is really important to see a lot of Hungary.
So I decided to go to the second largest city in Hungary: Debrecen.
With two other volunteers (who are living in Pécs) I
went by bus to Debrecen.
We used the whole weekend to see all the important
sights of the city. For example we saw the Great Reformed Church of Debrecen, the
Debrecen University, the Csokonai Theater and the Déri Museum. All these
buildings look really awesome!
We went into the university and were not able to believe how nice it is! We
found really good coffeehouses and restaurants and enjoyed the Hungarian
kitchen! On Saturday evening we went to the cinema and saw “Phillips kapitány” –
of course in English ;)
Now I plan some other journeys, because the time here
is running and I want to see some other places!
In December for example I will visit Pécs!
