This is my new house!! You would not believe that I am a volunteer in a developing country by looking at it. I love being here and my new Gazda. They are so nice and welcoming and have plenty of space for me and their only daughter Lumi.



This is my gazda sister Lumi. She is great and so much fun to spend the summer with. She is so excited to have a big sister and wants to be with me every second, which surprisingly does not bother me at all. I am so lucky to have met her. We are at the Pier in Mamia on the Black Sea. There is a carnival here that has new rides but is still run like they were in the 50's with individual ticket booths for each attraction.




This is a Monastry in Lainici, which is in the country near my city. It is very beautiful and is being repainted over the original artwork.

The House of the People (now the House of the Parliment) in Bucuresti was built after tearing down a historic part of the city during the Ceausescu period regime. It is said to be the 2nd largest building in the world after the Pentagon. The rooms are so beautiful and huge. Everything is made of marble and the rooms can be rented out for famous concerts or events. We only got to see about 15 rooms but it took over an hour due to the size. The building was also never finished.
