Constanta Romania


My travel to Constanta in Romania was a nice trip.
At home it was cold and windy, but when I came out from the plane in Bucuresti, I was meet with sunshine and 23 degree.
My transport to the coast of Romania took 2-3 hours, and I was adviced not to go by plane, but by car. If the car trip was safe compare to the plane, I guess the plane would have crashed, cause they drive like crazy down there, and I was scared as hell.

Arriving Constanta at the coast of the Black sea i was sett out of the contrast between poor and rich. At one side of the road was a poor man on a trip with his goat, and on the other side of the street the new shiny Mercedes car stood side by side by porsche and Lexus.

I lived at Hotel Ibiz. A nice hotel i the middle of centrum, not far from the old town (dont go in to the old town alone at night) I liked the hotel very much, the staff, the rooms and the atmosphere. There is no WiFi at the hotel (2008) but you can by cable in the reception.
At night there is a nice bar close to the reception, always half full of people, but it is thefirst time in my life i have wanted to kill the piano player in my life. He played 3-4 songs, and he played them over, and over again.
Also there were some "working girls" going in and out al the time, but it looks like this was how it should be. The restaurant in the hotel was .... maybe not the best, but if you are hungry it will do the job. It is not far to walk to some very good restaurants.
In Romania they have also a lot of good Vine. remember to taste some local wine when you are there.

The Romanian people is very nice. I have heard before that they are kind of crazy. but this is not true. They have some problems with poor people, but that is the same all over the world.
