    I just watch the first 5 seconds and somehow the sound of a bike going through water told me I was about to have some joy… and woooo I was right! One of the most pleasant and joyful videos I have ever watched ! The music the scenes the adventure! It was amazing!

    It can be seen that you worked hard, that you made an effort to make every frame come out well. The film editing turned out very well. The Romanian government must contact you and reward you!. Superb!

    Nice work......Some time ago, I read about a German man who, leaving on his bicycle from Mongolia, wanted to reach Hamburg, Germany, after crossing Asia, in Romania he had to give up the route because his bicycle was stolen. and, worse, they took all his equipment. It happened somewhere in the west of the country. So be careful never to leave the bike unattended

      Those dogs do the work they've been doing for quite literally millennia, far longer than cyclists have existed: they protect herds and shepherds from large predators. The wilderness of Romania is home to one of the largest populations of large carnivores in Europe, including brown bears, wolves and lynx.
