I'm a romanian living in the USA for half of my life but I am going back this year ...we need to take our country back .. if not us who else ?
Thanks! Served with the Romanians in Iraq (Great soldiers) and was there on business, but no time for fun. Retired and can break into my retirement in 2 more years and I will visit these places!
The truth is that Romania is an extremely beautiful country, very rich from a cultural, gastronomic point of view. We are extremely hospitable, friendly and we like to make friends from all over the world. We love it when we demonstrate our culture, our personality and we are proud that we are Romanians. I recommend you to visit us!
I've travelled quite a bit throughout Europe, and the other day it ocurred to me I've never been to Romania! Every romanian person I've ever met in my travels was super cool and cultured. Right now Romania is top of my bucket list :)
Romania is artificial state , only 160 years "old", name of state was invented in 1877 , name of the people in the same way. The valach "romanian" history was invented in XIX. century , created the daco-roman theory with the reason to legalise they right for Transylvania. Transylvania was a region of Hungary for 1000 years before romanian ocupation in 1918.
Every other foreign person visits only Brasov, Bucharest and Dracula's Castle. Besides the fact that it all only legend about Vlad the Devil and all stories that go around are mostly invented, we have other places which are really beautiful. If you checked out the movie The Nun (which was shot in Romania), The Abbey of Carta is an actual place, but without any real records of suicidal nuns. Greetings from a Romanian :)
Hi Marc, my thai/laosian grandma (we live in Canada) recently passed away at 86 yrs old from lung and brain cancer. She was one of your biggest fans. She would tell me about your family and spoke of them as if she knew you. Thank you for making your videos. It was her one comfort the past year and a half during her cancer stages. Her passion and love for cooking is what I share with my grandma. We used to sit and watch your videos for hour. All the best to you and your family.
Yes,is true! Don't worry. From Mai to November its the best time. You will be amazed there. First time( trip) will be the start for...next trip! Enjoy! Take care.Peace and love.
You need to try that garlic sauce with fried or grilled meat and u will see why romanians like it so much . Google "mujdei". And if u get there ...try polenta too ;)
@@alp198 I will have to look that up and make it! Sounds amazing! Oh, and I'm quite familiar with polenta. Been to Italy twice, love cooking Italian, and I live in the Southern USA where we just love our grits! Thanks for the suggestions!!!!

You can visit Romania is not that expensive with like 20e(100lei) or 40euro(200lei) you can eat alot in 1 day and the hotels prices are cheap like 1 night is 250-500 lei depends
I'm actually working and Living here in Braşov for 5 years and i must say that this place is undeniably a gem very traditional and food is simply exquisite. 🇵🇭 x 🇹🇩
I'm born in Romania, Targu Mures. I raised in the Netherlands and hopefully i can visit Romania this year with my Dutch wife. I miss the beatufil country.
Im from Nigeria and i can tell u i have been to Romania 2 times already for vacation and one of the greatest things i found out since im a black man is that theres no racism and they are so welcoming and friendly with me always smiling to me unlike west european countries.... they dont have racism in Romania its more like even when they say "ooh theres a black man over there" they dont mean it in a bad way its more like they are excited to have black ppl visiting them and that makes me feel comfortable thats why i always visit and i plan on going for the 3d time with my family soon. Good bless
yeah its probably because romania isn't being overrun with african 'boat people' illegal alien migrants, so the romanians don't have as much of a negative association with africans as western europe does...
Myself and my wife was invited to attend her brother's wedding to a beautiful Romanian lady in Romania and as South Africans we were delighted but did not know what to expect. Turned out it is a beautiful country with wonderful people and fantastic food. Would go again in a heartbeat should the oppertunity arise and can really recommend Romania as a tourist destination.

holy crap that first kitchen was so busy yet so clean those a really professional cooks for real im actually impressed by both the cleanliness AND sanity of that kitchen
Usually all central and easter Europe is strictly clean, kitchens, schools, even public toilets .. but whole Europe in general.. I think it is all from all that plagues from far past that taught Europe to be very clean and careful
I love romania and how they keep there traditions , We go to brasov every year i think brasov is amazing i prefer brasov to anywhere in the uk , nice and hot in the summer and freezing cold and lots of snow in the winter , amazing food and restaurants and very friendly people and very cheap

The tourist guides you had did an amazing job presenting the best sample of traditional food we have here and also choosing the best restaurants. This was just amazing to watch.

First true image about Brasov. Congrats Mark in propelling the image of Romania. Brasov is one of the best spots in Romania. Massive thanks for making such video and big thanks to everyone that has helped doing it!
Nothing makes me happier than to see Mark enjoy his food so much. It makes my day to see him eat with so much joy and appreciation. He's such a darling.
Mark, you are such a sweet genuine soul! & the people who are sharing the meals with you are just so attentive and hospitable. Thank you for showing us how fantastic Romania is! Another phenomenal video 🤗
I envy you JMAJ , and by the way ...I was born there,not happy with that not proud either but I’ve got to say ....you’re extremely lucky guy ....I’ve traveled the world,living for half of my life in Scotland,I’ve had so many different relationships with different nationalities of women ,but one thing certain Romanian women are the best in world ,and men with Romanian wife’s and partners knows that too well 👍👌
@Adrian Adi that's not a very smart thing to say. Or think. Since the majority of Romanian women are married to Romanian men. :) Don't be a victim. You'll find your better half. Just be a good man who deserves a good Romanian woman.
I'm watching this video again. I have different feelings for the same videos depending on what's happening in my life. I honestly didn't remember my previous comments but I came to say that just watching Mark crunch on those green onions at the end looked so delicious. When I eat green onions I always think of my Grandma Virginia Brown. She ate them like that and now I do too. She introduced me to a lot of foods. She passed away from Covid -19 in April of 2020. Love You Grandma! Please be safe if you believe it or not just be safe. Love you all and all the best to you your friends and families!!

I am hungarian and I usually do not hate romanian people, but I hate those romanian person /as you/ who speak about hungarians as enemies. Transilvania was part of the Hungarian kingdom and was ruled by the hungarian lords for more than a thousand years, that is a fact, but now it's a part of Romania is another fact. Ok, but the people who live there can work together, it’s just a matter of intelligence.
@@paiusan2000 I have already been two times in Romania, absolutely amazing experience. So beautiful and people are amazing, expecting to go again this year, love from Bulgaria!
We dont do complex salads. 99% of homes do raw fresh veggies you just grab while you eat your main dish. Its because of everyone used to live in the country side and the food basically went from your garden to your kitchen table. Wash it, eat it. Only complex cooking is when doing hot meals with sauces, etc. If its salads, its a very raw and super simple approach.
Romania 🇷🇴 will be in my next bucket list to visit in Europe. We do take cruise 🚢 Very year. Love ❤️ this video and the people of Romania is so hospitable and welcoming.
Never even thought of going to Romania, but after your videos it is on my top list of destinations to go. They speak my language when it comes to meat and alcohol. :)
too bad the food wouldnt be halal, and asking them if they have halal stuff is like asking a vegan shop if they got meat, Id feel like IM insulting their culture
Romania so rustic so naturally beautiful and at the same time developed with that western look that country is definitely coming out from the dark era. Finally, well done Romania
I love Romania so much❤️🇷🇴 Its so beautiful. I call Romanians brothers, because Im Hungarian🇭🇺❤️🇷🇴. Other Hungarians hate Romania because of Trianon and dont think were brothers. But I think we are brothers for sure, as we lived in an empire together for around 1000 years
Love from Roumania brother! Only assholes politicians want us to be enemyes. One of my grandfathers was hungarian but i never knew him. I don't speak hungarian and I am sorry for that. Of course we are brothers, and soon we will need eachother to survive in the crazyness who surounds us. Be well my hungarian friend!
Historically speaking, the Romanians " brothers" were the mountains, the green forest, the Danube and the Black Sea. Genetically Hungarians are "distant relatives". The rest is gargle...
Boyfriend from Brasov lol, and I recognized the second restaurant from my last trip. It's incredibly good, and I learned how to make sarmale and tripe soup.

This the kind of love and hospitality that peace on our planet stems from.The showing of wonderful food and culture is all we need.
Really impressed with Romanian food from what I’ve seen on here.
Ed Tedeschi whach fly the nest romania is insane !!!!
I think this is by far the most beautiful episode yet! Amazing Romanian culture, food, and scenery. Loved watching mark and also the older man who, you can see, just loves Romania and life. He's always smiling, I love him haha
The uncle sitting next to Mark was such a gentleman and also the other people....ROMANIA here I am putting you on my wishlist to travel before I die
thank you
Tnkx
Take me with you to Romania! We can eat and vlog with Mark Wiens!
Someone just edited his bucket list 😏🤣
Beautiful place with wonderful people and amazing looking food.
The sheer joy, passion and pride coming from your Romanian friends is wonderful. One of the best you've done.
holy crap that first kitchen was so busy yet so clean
those a really professional cooks for real im actually impressed by both the cleanliness AND sanity of that kitchen
Usually all central and easter Europe is strictly clean, kitchens, schools, even public toilets .. but whole Europe in general.. I think it is all from all that plagues from far past that taught Europe to be very clean and careful
I love romania and how they keep there traditions , We go to brasov every year i think brasov is amazing i prefer brasov to anywhere in the uk , nice and hot in the summer and freezing cold and lots of snow in the winter , amazing food and restaurants and very friendly people and very cheap
I'm Romanian, I've lived in the UK for 9 years....in all these years I've only been to Romania once, I miss Romania and everything about it. I'm sorry that many here in the UK look at us with disdain but they don't know us as we really are, how good we are as people but they don't even give us the chance to know us. I hope you enjoy Transylvania as much as possible, peace and love for everyone.
Romania is one of my bucketlist now. Seems like the people there are friendly and warm. Love that! 😍
Romania skyrockets up the list of European countries to visit. Beautiful place and food. Love from the states
Brasov old Hungarian city.
@@zoltanpinter7469 e a Romaniei, ungaria nu are loc in lumea asta, e o tara spurcata 🤡🇭🇺🤡
@@zoltanpinter7469 Budapest old Romanian city.
@@ProlePatrolMusic Old Romanian city? Romania was founded in 1859. Transylvania was cut off of Hungary in 1920. These are facts that everyone knows and approves in the world simply because it happened. You live in a parallel universe.
@@botrytis_cinerea Only Moldavia and Wallachia were united in 1859. Romania was united with Transylvania in 1918 not 1920, that was the Trianon treaty. Seems like not everyone knows and approves your facts.
we are Asian, why we always traveling to London, Paris and Rome?? Why dont we go to Romania for our next tour? Greeting from Indonesia.
As a Japanese who have never been abroad, I didn't even know the existence of Romania until now... this country looks amazingly beautiful & majestic. I'd like to travel to there someday but at the same time, I'm worried about if there's a surge of tourists in Romania, it may spoil something important like...peacefulness?
@@グリーンフィッシュ-t2b Have no fear... Just go there... most of them speak english, especially in hotels or restaurants... So do not worry... Go with confidence... Have a great day!
We are awaiting for you, always happy to meet and greet other cultures. Best learning experience.
@@グリーンフィッシュ-t2btotal peacefulness will always be outside touristic zones. And we have a lot of places of total communion with nature and the raw human kindness, not influenced by money.
@@LauraNegoi I get that but I’ll put up with a lot of bullshit if money is involved. Do you think I like going to work for someone else 8 hours a day? LOL. Money makes life easier.
Great video. Great presentation. Food looks delicious. Greetings and respect to all from Durango Mexico 🇲🇽
Greetings and respect to all from Japan
My neighbor and friend was from Romania and never thought of asking him about these cuisines. I want to go to Romania now.
Come! You will see amazing places, eat great food, drink and have so much fun. Romanians know how to party! And the best thing is that the prices are very good!
@@bbbb7940 how much is 100 dollars in Romania
I will definitely next year probably around August
@@rukuwangaracu around 430 RON. I attach you a link with average prices in Romania. www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/in/Bucharest
@@bbbb7940 cool. Thanks you so much
I'm from Romania, haven't been there in over 30 years but hope to be back one day. This just makes me want to go even more.
I had a friend from Brasov, he never told me how beautiful his place is.
cill mate...probably he never had money to get close unaff on that fancy hotels and place
@@thuglife-gk3gm I am not talking about the hotels, I mean the city and the surroundings.
@@LorDarcK6 lol, I must admit that he did brag about the beautiful nature around Brasov. I guess he comes from a village close to Brasov and he told me that originally his family spoke German hundred years ago.
Shame on him!!
up
Dang Romanians are awesome and they eat good. Country looks beautiful. Would luv to bisit
My favorite part about Mark's videos is his respect for every culture he interacts with. That's everything!
Wow, Brașov is The best City in Romania, and one of The best from Europe, I’m very impressed with this city
Brasov is number 1
Wow thanks Mark to share Romanian's food. I knew Romanian food from you. My Romanian husband rarely cooked for me his food. Hi from Sydney.
Do you really have Romanian food in Australia?🙄😒 I doubt you even know, where Romania is located...😒
This makes me want to put Romania on my travel list!Amazing!
Wow, this is so fascinating seeing a foreigner take huge bites of traditional roumanian food and not even squint once. I am Romanian and I don't like half of the foods you had there LOL. Amazing!! The tourist guides you had did an amazing job presenting the best sample of traditional food we have here and also choosing the best restaurants. This was just amazing to watch. Thank you for the free content!
First true image about Brasov. Congrats Mark in propelling the image of Romania. Brasov is one of the best spots in Romania. Massive thanks for making such video and big thanks to everyone that has helped doing it!
The people you are with seem so so friendly and amazing
yes we are
Great land, great people and that dinner place was amazing n their music at the dinner table was superb. Thanks Mark for taking us to Romania 🇷🇴
Nothing makes me happier than to see Mark enjoy his food so much. It makes my day to see him eat with so much joy and appreciation. He's such a darling.
Mark, you are such a sweet genuine soul! & the people who are sharing the meals with you are just so attentive and hospitable. Thank you for showing us how fantastic Romania is! Another phenomenal video 🤗
My wife is Romanian. 🇷🇴 No one can cook like a beautiful Romanian woman. I’m a lucky guy. 🇺🇸
I envy you JMAJ , and by the way ...I was born there,not happy with that not proud either but I’ve got to say ....you’re extremely lucky guy ....I’ve traveled the world,living for half of my life in Scotland,I’ve had so many different relationships with different nationalities of women ,but one thing certain Romanian women are the best in world ,and men with Romanian wife’s and partners knows that too well 👍👌
@@GeeGoodman 👉👌🤭
Just joking
❤️
@Adrian Adi that's not a very smart thing to say. Or think. Since the majority of Romanian women are married to Romanian men. :) Don't be a victim. You'll find your better half. Just be a good man who deserves a good Romanian woman.
I was in Brasov, Romania in September! Absolutely beautiful place with amazing people and food!
I'm watching this video again. I have different feelings for the same videos depending on what's happening in my life. I honestly didn't remember my previous comments but I came to say that just watching Mark crunch on those green onions at the end looked so delicious. When I eat green onions I always think of my Grandma Virginia Brown. She ate them like that and now I do too. She introduced me to a lot of foods. She passed away from Covid -19 in April of 2020. Love You Grandma! Please be safe if you believe it or not just be safe. Love you all and all the best to you your friends and families!!
whoever watching this video, i suggest you to watch till the end cos the breakfast part was most exciting and beautiful..i wish i can visit one day there
Hi Leisu Mon
Yes as always...i definitely will watch till the end of the end🤭🤣
That is why we must defend the forests in Romania !!! They are unique in Europe
After watching this Romania series, makes me want to get a one way ticket and live there! Very well done food documentaries!
Actually one of the most thriving countries in the Europe. Go to Transilvania though! That's where most of "life" happens!
I love my country (though I'm living in Spain since 2002)
Showed this to my work buddy, Raul. He was very happy to see this. He moved to the US from Brosov 20 yrs ago.
Transylvania is definitely one of my favorite destinations in Europe!
Just be careful, the Hungarian nationalists will fill your comment with their hatred.
@@SKIRRIX nah I am from Transylvania, people in here don't really care that much about the topic, it's just on the internet people enjoy to get in arguments and stuff like that 🥴
@@SKIRRIX I met Hungarians in Gheorgheni and they were really nice
Be careful , hungary people hate Romania and speak bad about Romania
I am hungarian and I usually do not hate romanian people, but I hate those romanian person /as you/ who speak about hungarians as enemies. Transilvania was part of the Hungarian kingdom and was ruled by the hungarian lords for more than a thousand years, that is a fact, but now it's a part of Romania is another fact. Ok, but the people who live there can work together, it’s just a matter of intelligence.
Damn, Romania looks good would love to go soon, greetings from Bulgaria!
Greetings also from Romania to our neighbour, now big friend, which has chosen the European path instead of Putin. Big respect!
Hello Bulgaria! From rockstar eater in Los Angeles.
Hello Milan, it's time to visit Romania and Trasylvania. Our best vacation at the sea side was in Albena (well....a long time before). Respect!
@@paiusan2000 I have already been two times in Romania, absolutely amazing experience. So beautiful and people are amazing, expecting to go again this year, love from Bulgaria!
Romania and her people are beautiful. I would LOVE to visit someday.
Romania never crossed my mind now i need to taste this food, wow
Yes you really need to eat some food from here
Now there is a lot of food in Romania and am Romania btw
:) you'd love it...
I want to try it myself. I'm so hungry after watching the video. It looks so delicious just to look at it😋
I live în Romania and I am glad that some of you appreciate this country😁😉
Its amazing the Romanians just eat raw red onions wow looks soo delicious. very friendly people

We put them on bread too, with lard :)
We dont do complex salads. 99% of homes do raw fresh veggies you just grab while you eat your main dish. Its because of everyone used to live in the country side and the food basically went from your garden to your kitchen table. Wash it, eat it. Only complex cooking is when doing hot meals with sauces, etc. If its salads, its a very raw and super simple approach.
Garlic , green onion too !!
@@viralstuffs cu niște unsoare și roșii doamneeee

Romania 🇷🇴 will be in my next bucket list to visit in Europe. We do take cruise 🚢
Very year. Love ❤️ this video and the people of Romania is so hospitable and welcoming.
depends where you go, if you go to the south area or bucharest there are very low chances to find nice people

I'm from Brazil and my country has a very diverse cuisine and the Romanian cuisine seems to be delicious. 😋
Romania is a beautiful country wery nice cuisine good people god bless this country goodlock to Romania
Such a gorgeous city. We stayed at Cabana Postavaru a few years back. Great food, great view, great history. ❤️
yeah, great Hungarian history and city! 🇭🇺 🇭🇺

Never even thought of going to Romania, but after your videos it is on my top list of destinations to go. They speak my language when it comes to meat and alcohol. :)
🤣🤣
too bad the food wouldnt be halal, and asking them if they have halal stuff is like asking a vegan shop if they got meat, Id feel like IM insulting their culture
@@trollinape2697 sorry mate, we don't do halal.
@@daniel_strz romania has like 0 muslims except from the odd turks here and there, not surprised

Man these people are super generous! Really great hospitality from them
You're such a special man! Thank you for being an ambasador of our country!
Romania so rustic so naturally beautiful and at the same time developed with that western look that country is definitely coming out from the dark era. Finally, well done Romania

This one is definitely bucket list worthy! This place looks incredible and food unbelievable
Loved the picture in the coffee
I love Romania so much❤️🇷🇴 Its so beautiful. I call Romanians brothers, because Im Hungarian🇭🇺❤️🇷🇴. Other Hungarians hate Romania because of Trianon and dont think were brothers. But I think we are brothers for sure, as we lived in an empire together for around 1000 years
Love from Roumania brother! Only assholes politicians want us to be enemyes. One of my grandfathers was hungarian but i never knew him. I don't speak hungarian and I am sorry for that. Of course we are brothers, and soon we will need eachother to survive in the crazyness who surounds us. Be well my hungarian friend!
Finally a bright mind!
Historically speaking, the Romanians " brothers" were the mountains, the green forest, the Danube and the Black Sea. Genetically Hungarians are "distant relatives".
The rest is gargle...
The Romanian hospitality is amazing. I wish to visit one day.
I miss my country man I have water in my mouth miciiii sarmale mamaliga. Enjoy guys Romania is beautiful country!
I've visited most of europe, the bread in Romania is the best!
Me: sad Hungaryan noises😢
I’m glad I’m not the only one who eats green onions like that
most eastern europeans eat onions like that
Please learn to eat with respect
Boyfriend from Brasov lol, and I recognized the second restaurant from my last trip. It's incredibly good, and I learned how to make sarmale and tripe soup.
I never have seen Romanian food before but now I want to eat this cuisine badly. Plus, the Romanian people are so warm and hospitable.
snap.. I'm like.. I need to go there ASAP.. YUMMMM
@Silwiu I wholeheartedly agree.
We behave like puppies with the tourists we get, to make them love the country as we love it.
I'll come in 12 days to Vietnam.
You can also come to Romania.
😊
@@sabaidee5587 Great news, I hope you enjoy our country. As for me, money restrictions right now 🤑 but when I have it again, absolutely! When it comes to Europe, I've visited Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, England and Norway - but now Romania is definitely on my list of must go places thanks to Mark Wiens and his wonderful Romanian hosts...
I was in Suceava not too long ago... And they know how to eat
