The 10 1st prizes went to: Grant Skinner, from the UK, Angelina Olaru, from the Republic of Moldova, Serhii Badik, of Ukraine, Chen Wei, of the US, Francesco Paroli, of Italy, Boudoukha Mohamed, of Algeria, Carsten Fenske, of Germany, Iurii Gavrilov, of Tadjikistan, Álvaro Muñoz Yáñez, of Chile, and Amady Faye, from Senegal.

Mr. Christer Brunstrom, of Sweden, sent us the following message: “I usually try to take part in all your contests. Usually I learn something new about Romania. I didn't know that Romania had such a long history where spas have been used to treat various health problems. We've had similar spas in Sweden as well where fresh air and water were considered as excellent cures for a variety of health problems. However, I don't think that we have anything like the Baile Govora spa.”

 

And now, the winner of the grand prize: his name is Hans Verner Lollike, from Denmark. He won a full board, 8-night trips for two persons, between June 15 and 30, 2019, at the Palace Hotel in Baile Govora spa resort, in Valcea County. Congratulations!

Hans Verner Lollike sent us the following message: “The spa-culture is not known in Scandinavia! I have always found it a bit strange, that grown people are spending one week or more just caring for their body, but now just turned 70, but if I am going to say so, I find my self healthy, biking every day, but now I can see, that caring for your body is a good thing, and I would probably enjoy a week in a spa, especially, if nature around is giving you opportunity to have wonderful walks. So this gave me an extra motivation for this contest - even that visiting Romania is always a strong motivation enough to participate. In Danish press most reports and news if any, is the bad and problematic stories. RRI gives me all sorts of stories, both in radio and on internet, that complete the picture of Romania. On top of that you do the best to involve us, on radio days, personality of the year and contests. “

 

We thank all our listeners who participated in the contest. The prizes will be sent to the winners by mail, in the upcoming months. Please confirm their receival by post or email. Thank you again! We are looking forward to your participation in our next contests.
