Sommer and I have exciting news to share. We’ve been working on a Web site that gives a quick overview of our trip (which is part of the reason we’ve been dormant here). It’s located at www.RomaniaRevisited.com. Our blog has been moved over there, too. The direct link to the blog is www.romaniarevisited.com/romania-revisited/blog.html.
We’re still beefing it up, so please let us know if we missed anything important.
Also, shout out to Clayton for helping us with the site. We appreciate it.

I can’t write in the new site. In rest, is better then this one, especially the pictures from Romania. Is nice to see how strangers see our country, and how they react with local folks. Keep writing, is so interesting.
About: “Madonna Speaks Up about Treatment of Roma population” article:
You see this country and you know that is no such thing as discrimination in Romania. Ofcourse, we have extremist here, like everywhere else. You speak about poverty among gipsies but let’s not forget they are rudimentary people, with ancient customs and traditions and they are delighted with this enigmatic way of living. Do you know for example that they ignore Romanian laws, and when they are convicted for felony they are screaming about ethnic cleansing. European Union allocate enormous sum of money for them just to stay in our country and not emigrate in Western Countries and do what they do the best: begging and stealing. Among them are some honest individuals but i don’t advise you to go together with them for hunting. You can listen their tribal music and you can watch their funny dance. If you buy something from them you’ll be deceived.
In conclusion: Madonna is an old Star with affection problems, who know Romania only from window of the hotel room and you’re a journalist who can have an closer view.
