Brasov, Romania

If I were able to travel for six months I would chose to visit Brasov, Romania and the cities around and possibly do some volunteer work to keep myself busy. Because of the larger Roma population within Brasov and Bucharest there are many orphanage volunteering opportunities.

I would take essential clothing for colder and warmer summers and I'd try to take my most comfortable asics and some sandals.

In terms of electronics, I'm embarrassed to say that I would not be able to live without my laptop or iPhone, both of which I would utilize for learning Romanian and the phone for common phrases while I'm out and about. I would also take my dslr and medium format camera to document my trip abroad and more so the people and families I meet.

More specifically, I would definitely find a map of my city

I'm very attached to my American trans fat diet, and I'd definitely make it a point to pack some trader joe joes (oreos) but I'm definately prepared for the typical soup, mămăligă and cabbage rolls. Yum.
