My unique stay in RomaniaEVS yeahtinalovesromania.myevs.net | ||||
Luni in MaramuresMonday, the last day up in the North... We had breakfast together with Jens, the Norwegian guy. Then we went to Sighet and visited the Memorial Museum, a shocking experience!!! In the prison, there were various exhibition rooms dedicated to various topics like e.g. communist regimes, Securitate, Ceausescu, minorities persecuted, but also women in prison, poetry in prison, censured writers or arts & culture. What especially touched me was the creativity people develop in really bad situations like during prison: the elaborated double-based etuis for messages, wrote whole dictionaries Englih/French-Romanian, or poems on paper tissues or stitched onto handkerchiefs. After a short stroll through Sighet we had to say goodbye yo Jens who continued his journey and we also started our trip home. We only stopped to eat lunch & play volleyball (by the way, on this occasion we beat our personal record - we did more than 200!). We arrived in Oradea in the evening. | LinksMyEVS albumCategoriesWho's nearby? | |||
