From time to time I feel the need to drive away from the hustle and bustle of the city and surround myself with the peacefulness and quietness of the countryside. In a small village isolated by the world you don’t feel the passing of time. People wake up with the crowing of a rooster and go on about their daily routine, without feeling overwhelmed by the outer world.
I wanted to show you how life in rural Romania is like and maybe inspire you to take a break from everyday routine and enjoy the small moments of life in an undisturbed setting.
