Today is my first full day in Romania and I tend to find that sleeping in is far better as you can extinguish the heat of the days and go out at night, i don’t really have any plans here yet. I will wrap the last 48 hours into one blog (Friday & Saturday) I […]

Bottom Bunks Rule!
I can see why in prison the person who has been in the cell longest gets the Bottom bunk… there is a level of convenience to the bottom bunk that you don’t appreciate until you are sleeping in one. It is Monday and i will be changing hostels… not because Veselka is a bad hostel, […]
