Well, truth to be said, I enjoy my new freedom (I’m separated) in a bikish style! Already put around 2500 KMs on my CBF600 this year and more to come as riding season just started.
And to continue with memories from my childhood yesterday I went to Nereju – it’s a very small village hidden in the mountains. It’s so hidden that it’s like going back 100 years – you will see why. Last time I’ve been to Nereju with my Grandparents about 20 years or so. Glad to see nothing was changed this time.
Here we go. First, the map.
You have to go to Focsani and then head West to Odobesti then some more. Both Focsani and Odobesti are very famous for the excellent wines – it’s a sunny place. (I’m very pissed of that I can’t find any good sites to show you the wines. I should do something about this… Lot’s of Romanian treasures don’t get enough exposure and that’s sad).
And now some pictures:

I think it’s hard to experience anything like this anywhere else in Europe! Real traditional life and you can smell cattle! Off-road experience? To the max! (well turns to be somehow painful on a street bike)
There is only one way to show you how much fun I had. Any biker will know that these are the signs of a good ride:
