If your stay in Romania turns out to be longer than planned, you\u2019re sure to have made a couple of friends in capital city Bucharest, or elsewhere across Romania, since you must have been going places, visiting the country, making the most of your trips to the mountains or your holidays at the seaside.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
Romanians still have a reputation for being hospitable and approachable, so some of your friends will by all means enjoy being invited to your place for dinner.<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
