The Easter holiday is approaching, and my excitement grows day by day. I can’t wait to visit my home country after almost six months! I can’t believe it’s been that long. I am even happy to immerse myself in the crazy traffic of Bucharest, to let myself be carried by the crowds at the metro stations — but Bucharest also has green parks and cosy streets, I’ll make sure not to miss them either!

This will be only for a few days, before heading to the countryside where I will breathe fresh air, enjoy the gardens, drink my coffee under the cherry trees, colour eggs for Easter and prepare the traditional food.

Only a few more days to go!
