      @GabrielTravelerVideos  6 років тому +40

      I know, it's really a shame. Especially on the older historical buildings. It should be considered destruction of property. They need to increase the penalties and get cleaning crews to clean the buildings off.

    • @Blablabla-tr2wo
      @Blablabla-tr2wo 3 роки тому +1

      @jams5309 i agree with the other points here. Whatever you might say about the "urban life" this is property damage. Especially when done on historic buildings. Geneva had designated graffiti areas to avoid such problems. And that would be a good idea since it would create a single space for this and it could be turned into sort of a gallery. Some of the graffiti looks great. But if you draw it on a 250 year old building you should eat that spray tube

      As a black British based in the UK with many Romanian friends I totally agree with your point!!!! An educated and well balanced person would never graffiti in a public place and claim that it's art!!!! It's not art its criminal damage!!! An artist would do the grafatti on a canvas and or a sheet of paper!!!! This graffiti is no good to the Romanian people and no good to tourists like me who want to enjoy the beauty of the place!!!!

I'd hope that perhaps they'll take more pride in their country and city, in the future. (The "artists" who have trashed the buildings should take their art inside, and put it on the walls of their own apartments, if they like it so much! )

      yes its really sad. they should start a 'contest' or something. distract people into taking their art somewhere else. like you can only perform your stuff if you don't tag anywhere illegal. if i owned a business like these amazing places..i would donate a few bucks toward saving my shit. i guess im coming from having been a mom to toddlers and teens. if theyre are screwing up sometimes it better to redirect than fight it out with irrational people. my opinion of course. Virginia Beach has no graffiti but they paid local artists to join up and paint stunning murals. most graffiti is shit but alot of people have talent they dont have a way to express

      [Memedoze] Also, the thing about graffiti is the longer it stays on the building, more graffiti artist will add to it and the adjacent buildings.
      The only way to keep a handle on it is to remove it the first day it appears and repeat until the offenders go elsewhere.
      This method has been proven to work. But, it looks like they don't care to remedy the problem.

      I haven't heard a lot about Romania, and I hadn't heard any other travelers recommend Bucharest before. Romania just isn't as well known of a country in Europe as other places. Especially if you're from the United States then most of eastern Europe is off the radar. That's one of the reasons I'm here is because it's cool to see countries that you don't know much about.

      There is no snow every march in Bulgaria and Romania. In this year for the first time since 8 years. Normally there is snow from end of December to mid February. Normal weather in March is 10-15 degrees and no snow.

    • @GabrielTravelerVideos
      @GabrielTravelerVideos  6 років тому +1

      Jesse, yes I did go to Lumbini actually:
      ua-cam.com/video/dSStPTnvzfw/v-deo.html
      Not really a must-see place, especially since it's a long ways out of the way from Kathamndu or Pokhara. However if you're crossing the border from Nepal to India or vice versa then it's on that route, so it's worth stopping there.

      I'm sure it was. All the food I had there was. But just to expensive. Romania is one of the poorest European countries. You should be able to get food for cheap. We had pizza at a stone fire pizza place there for less than $4 for a pretty large pizza.

      Rex McArtor it's about quality my friend...sure u had a cheap pizza but if you want a good tasty proper quality steak you have to pay something more even in Romania....besides you can find expensive places in poor countries and the opposite...it's called capitalism...rich and poor are everywhere

    • @GabrielTravelerVideos
      @GabrielTravelerVideos  6 років тому +17

      I just walk around and find restaurants randomly. So if they're cheap great, if they're a little more expensive then it's not that expensive here anyway. In this case I walked out of my apartment, went right and had to walk quite a ways past pizza places and kebab places, etc. because I wanted to find a restaurant serving Romanian food. That was the first one I came to, after walking for quite a while, so I was glad to find it. Sure I could grab some pizza or whatever on the street for cheap but I want somewhere nice where I can take a seat for a while, get a beer or wine and work on my computer, that isn't a fast food restaurant.

    Great vid, Gabriel! I am definitely going to Romania in December 2022 (hopefully, it will!) once the Covid19 situation is either over or under control, and I am still learning many things. Also, it will be my first foreign country to visit. I still need advice on visiting Bucharest like the hotel, transport, and food & drink (mostly about money). Those graffiti, yuck! Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed your visit to Romania.
    PS. I've owned your book on Amazon a couple of months ago and I enjoyed it! Will be reading it again later this summer.
    (Oct 2022) EDIT: Definitely not going to Romania this Christmas because of the money, and I still need more. Planning on relocating from the USA because of how tedious it has become, and that's why I lost interest in living in the USA. 2023 will be the year!

    This Winter visit doesn't show Bucharest in it's best light. I visted in May 2019 and it was a wonderful city. Sure, a bit rough around the edges but fascinating architecture and beautiful parks. There was a fantastic light show in the fountains of the main square. And if you like night life it's full on in your face with plenty of themed bars and dancing girls (and guys) to entertain you. If you visit try a day's trip going north to the lakes which is the Romanian holiday resort area. The Communist era palace where the revolution started is spectacular. Unfortunately the Romanian airforce museum and Ceaușescu's house were closed when I visited. And it's cheap for accommodation, food and beer.
