Hi Szabi
I didnt refer to a "bullshit" country -you did.
I didnt refer to all the people being thieves -you did.
I dont judge a whole country "so quick" - you said that!
Please dont refer to words I never said.
I understand what you're saying however, but let's be clear - rightly or wrongly Romania has a reputation for theft. So has Italy...but you can be robbed anywhere - certainly in the UK. I got stuff taken in Amsterdam but I dont blame the Dutch nation, so relax a little. In a very poor India, I had nothing taken.
In Ploesti, however, I stopped my bike one rainy night to check a map, and out of the rain came a howling lunatic who grabbed at the stuff on the back of the bike, making me drive off away from the madman.
But I dont think all Romanians are like this!
And welcome to the European Union -it's good to travel in your country with less hassle than before. And that you can travel easily in Western Europe. Let's have more of that! But watch your stuff in the UK or someone WILL steal it!
PS. UK citizens are NOT described as English, but British. This includes Wales, Scotland, England and Northern Ireland.
Happy travels! See you at Horizons UK one day?!!
