Romania & Bulgaria: camping in winter?
Okay, are we mad for even considering this? Hoping someone with experience in the area could shed some light on practicalities. Originally we planned to ship our 4x4 to Sth Africa, but have now decided to bring our departure date forward (Jan 2010) and realise that the weather will be very hot (and damp) in Sth Africa, and that this time of year would suit Sudan... somewhere we are quite keen to see. The difficulty now is on getting through Europe and Middle East in the winter, and on our budget we would need to camp or at a stretch stay in cheap pensions / hotel. Anyone an idea on costs of accommodation in Romania / Bulgaria (which we are assuming will be coldest other then Eastern Turkey?) and on the feasibility of camping and navigating the roads? We are used to warmer climes (and currently shivering in London), so don't want to get frost bite!
Thanks in advance 
Mark and Allison
