River Crossing Into Romania
On Oryahovo ferry port in Bulgaria. Romania is only 0.5 km across the river. Maya on the ferry
What Is Freedom?
What is freedom? Freedom is throwing stones in the river after the sunset and watching the ripples let go. What is freedom? Freedom is enjoying aloneness and drinking the last sip of warm water left in the bottle after a ride of 130km in the scorching sun.
Shepherds
Saw a bunch of cows in the fields and stopped to take a picture. Had a little conversation with this man, Soreen, in German. His younger sister Paula helps him in taking care of cows. She has such a kind face. I had no present for her so I gave her an energy bar.
Hotel In Caransebes
I shifted to another single-bed room in the same hotel in Caransebes, Romania. Not as spacious as the previous one, but hey it is 5 euros cheaper. Costs 20 euros. The hotel manager handed me a Wireless Access Point device to plug into my room to have even better internet speed.
Exhausted In Romania
As I was exhausted by the scorching sun today, I stopped and took a nap at this place for over an hour next the highway.
