Seven cheerful volunteers travelling from Arad
to Predeal.
Predeal. It is nine o’clock in the morning and
there are no activities in the afternoon. Just the time to leave our backpacks
in the hotel and go, once again in the train forward Sinaia, through the snowy
mountains of Carpaţi. The fog wraps the firs that stand up to the sight in
their dizzying verticality, the thoughts rolling roll along following the
rhythm of the rails.
... Travelling is possible realize that for the street
of the world there is an immense number of travellers. Through the journey the
human spirit sharpen itself and get rich ...
Two days later we reached the Craiului Parque of
Zarnesti. On the train we meet Bogdan, a funny boy coming back at home from Bucureşti.
He warns us that we have just bought sweets from a peddler could be no eatable.
I decide to challenge the death! He provides us a lot of interesting
information about the place, advices and strategies on how to escape from
bears, wolves and linces, about the cold winter and the beauty of his country. We
arrive at the end of the line, and we say goodbye. Just twenty minutes later behind
us, on roller blades, there is him, He decides to come with us untilthe park
entrance. The landscape is amazing.A picture of intense colours: the green of the fields,
the white of the snow on the top of the mountains, the blue of the sky. We walk
a lot, following the river. There are maybe 30 degrees but the snow, hidden
under the leaves, by the shade of the trees and huge rocks, has not melted yet.
We come to a cross road. Which way we have to follow? Two cyclists show us the
path. Among a question and an answer comment on the lack of the respect for
Mother Nature! It is true! We cannot avoid to notice that probably many people
don’t care to throw the rubbish in the bins. The environment education is one
of the thematic that we wish to carry on during our EVS project.
We could go on deeper into the park but the sun is
setting and it is time to back.
We say goodbye to our new friend Bogdan with a tasty pizza and a refreshing Silva and we toasty at our meeting under the spanish football team’s flag hang on the wall of the pub. What a better way to celebrate diversity!

We come back to Braşov, tired but happy. The following
morning we leave the city for exploring
Sighişoara, where we meet Remi, a young french researcher. This small but charming
town will be our last stop before getting the train that will take us back to
Arad.
