• Day 48 ROMANIA Sibiu

    May 5 in Romania ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    We went on a free walking tour with a history teacher who is currently doing his PhD. He was so informative and so happy to answer all our questions regarding Romania's rulers, occupation by the Romans, Mongols, Ottomans, Hapsburg, Hungarians, and Ceauescu and how each affected the people. He also highlighted the historical buildings and significant events that happened there like executions and demonstrations, Christmas markets and festival locations.

    Walking in and out of old streets chalked up 13km today. No hiking, just incidental walking.
