Bucharest - now here's an idea


It was bound to happen sooner or later. While Prague and Budapest will probably remain Expat Central for a little longer, the interest is bound to shift East - to Romania and Bulgaria.

The NY Times opened the gate with a positive travel review of Bucharest, clearly stating the reason why the Romanian capital will most likely become the next Prague: cheaper & less crowded.



Here's a brief list of reasons to go:

- cheap
- good food
- cheap
- excellent performing art scene
- cheap
- revamped city skyline/infrastructure
- cheap
- did you know Bucharest used to be called Little Paris?
- cheap
- Byzantine churches
- and more...
