New members of the Romania forum, introduce yourselves here - 2018

Hello All!!
My name is Demi and i have just moved to Bucharest (from London) on 6-9month project (maybe longer!).

Lovely to e-meet you all

I'm Mark Jason Abejar, 28, from the Philippines. I have been in the Food & Beverage industry for 6 years already, & counting. I am an honest & flexible person & can & willing to work under pressure. I am motivated to work overseas for it has already been my passion to explore other places here on earth & I love to learn & experience the people & culture living in other places. And of course, working abroad gives me an exceptional salary that my country can't offer. I am a team player. I love to be taught & learning skills is my ideal for I believe that skills are not learned in school. They're learned in your everyday walk with life through meeting new people everyday.

Born in Romania, left almost 27 years ago at the age of 23 and moved to Canada (Toronto). My intention is to return to Romania, in about 4-6 years time, depending on what my son who is entering grade 11 this September, does for school/university. Even though both myself and wife are from Bucharest, we intend to set up shop in Brasov.

Hi there.

Hi everyone!

My name is Saira and I've been in Bucharest for a couple weeks. I'm from London and really looking to meet new people and make some friends

Feel free to message me
Saira

A big thank you for the invitation here.  Warmest regards to everyone.

I am currently residing in the UK, I am a UK citizen but am looking to relocate to Iasi, Romania for a permanent move.  My fiance is Romania and lives in Iasi and wishes to stay there rather than move to the UK (I cannot blame her).

I have rented a property there (3 bed apartment - she has a 10 year old son) but desperately am looking for work with a start as soon as possible.  I have posted in the jobs section and edited it again today.

I am a professional within the Catering/Hospitality Industry as well as within Customer Care, both face to  face and Call centre with a host of certificates and diplomas, all valid within the EU and a wealth of experience.

I have two downsides:

1.  I am 67 and many would be employers see this as an obstacle ( beats me why)
2.  I speak 5 languages, none of which currently is Romania.

I can within the above qualifications turn my hand to anything, work is more important to me than a titled position.

I would be very obliged for any offers of work or any pointers as to how I can secure work.  I have tried many of the job boards but all they seem to be seeking are IT staff and whilst I am computer literati, I could never fulfill the criteria required for these type positions.

I thank you for reading this post.

Hi,
My name is Jack and I live in the USA.  I'm interested in moving to Romania and learning about the history and culture of the country.  I do not speak any Romanian, and so learning the language would be my first challenge.

I'm retired and I do not need a job.  I would like to find out about places to live and how to meet people.

Hello fellow travelers,
I am American visiting Bucharest till Oct 16th 2018.
I am mainly looking for other English speakers who live in the area who may want to socialize and talk about life in Romania.  I made a mistake not having my phone unlocked before I came here, so I am using a phone that GPS is pretty much worthless.  Basically I am lost in Bucharest.  I have Airbnb that is centrally located.  I am near Cismigiu Park. Please email if anyone wants to get together.  Thanks in advance.

Hello!
I am from the USA... I traveled 7 months through Europe via workaway and couchsurfing and ended up falling in love with this country, as well as a Romanian.. We plan to marry in May so if anyone (especially Americans) has/have information on tips on marrying a Romanian let me know!
I am currently in lessons to learn Romanian and am hoping to help others learn English as well!
I hope to gain some more friends and contacts and experiences via expat.com and I look forward to meeting you guys and seeing YOUR version of Bucharest and I'll show you mine!

Hi everyone, really great to see so many people coming together in one place!

I'm from the UK but will likely be getting relocated to Cluj in the next few months for 2-3 years by my employer as we have a new office opening over there and I'll be helping to get it up and running.

I've been doing lots of research already but I still have plenty of questions to ask so once I'm done reading through as many of the topics as possible I will likely post my own thread - I would appreciate any advice I can get on that thread :-)

Thanks, and lovely to meet you all, speak soon!

Regards
dige

Hello Everyone,

We are moving from US to Cluj after one year for work and school.

My plan is to move to the mountain region 30 or 40 minutes southwest of Cluj to setup a small farm (maybe 50000 mp) if it can be found.
My wife is a Romanian expat of 40yrs obtaining a dual citizenship so our daughter will attend university in Cluj. We want to set up a small business from the farm.

looking forward to talking with every one (right now only in English), and sharing ideas.

Hi,

I invite you to follow this topic on this new thread: https://www.expat.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=830286

Thanks!
