Thanks a lot for sharing this fantastic video. I love Romania. I love my country.

I am very glad that British people are going to live in eastern Europe and Romania in particular.

It helps to better understand the East and West of Europe with each other.

And for Romania the presence of Anglo-Saxon culture will not be out of place.

Good luck on your journey!

Hello from Bulgaria! We moved here in 2021 to escape prison island (UK) and start growing our own food and living free. We bought our 3 bedroom farmhouse and fields for €10K. We’ve done light renovation costing €5K. It is the best decision we ever made. We moved here with young children. Our village is mostly empty and many farms for sale here for a similar price. Don’t just think about it, DO IT. We have mains electric/water/internet but we do have our own mountain spring for water and log burners, so, off grid living is not too far away for us. We will be standing firm against the nwo on our mountain top 👍🏻

11:25 He said up to 1000, not "1 meg fiber"
1000 megabit is cheap here, it's 40 RON, which is 8 euro.

Live amongst all the stray cats and dogs. Judge a country how they treat their animals. Your video isn't complete without struggling stray dogs being treated like punch bags by street kids.

Houses are much more expensive in Hungary or Czech Republic, I suspect...

[FlorentinadeCarvalho]

While I agree with all that your saying I have to mention that actually the misunderstanding of Romania is also protecting it for going the same road as the west and at a fast speed. I love Romania, I am romanian myself but I wouldnt want it to become too famous and get distroyed fast. It's hard to balance everything. Anyway great video and please keep up the hunt for houses. I am far from Romania at the moment and I would like to know what are the prices for houses in villages this days as I might be able to get one, hopefully soon. Thanks again!

At least you should be able to pronounce the name of the country correct...and THEN make a film: correct is... ROmania... and NOT.... RUmania!

Hi, my name is Justin Laurie, just came across your channel finding it so far absolutely fantastic. I’m from London originally been living Romania now for two years. My wife is Romanian and we decided to come here to bring up our daughter. I’ve spent the day watching your videos You’re doing a fantastic job very informative and I will be leaving more comments soon

In some parts of Romania ( including the part im living in right now ) the mayor of the community/city will give you a plot of land for free and an amount of money for you to build your first house. All you have to do is to prove that you actually want to build a house there and not just take the money and leave, and you do that by building 30% to 40% of the house, like the main structure without furniture or windows/door anything like that. And you have a 5 years period to do that, otherwise you'll have to return the money they give you. The money they give you is not huge, but it's a good amount for the start.

CONGRATULATIONS for the work you do to promote Romania.

[scottyc]

I just found this channel and subscribed, would be nice to see some more content.
Im a fellow Englishman also living in Romania.
I bought a large house back in 2014 in a mountain village and finally moved here in 2020.
The house was a new buiid that the previous owner didn't finish, i have spent a few years fitting it out.
Life here is at a slower pace, traditional family values, good food.

Worked in Buzau 2012. Vastly underated country and remarkably friendly and safe .despite crazy driving. Country side is amazing. Language has a lot of Latín like Italian . Not dificult

[michellenadiamiller]

Would love to see what sort of properties are available and how much they are. Also would love to hear from people who have moved there. I’m in Australia and looking to escape this prison island.

[randyearles]

I love the green rolling hills. of course I live in las vegas and its all desert here. nice video

As an expat living next door in Hungary I would like to say a few things to anyone considering the expat option. NOT to discourage anyone but to make you consider whether this is for you no matter where you choose. Romania, Hungary, Continental Europe or anywhere on the planet.

Most expat will return home in less than a year because they could not adapt to their new country. When you move to another country do not expect it to be like it was back at home. If life back home was so great why would you leave? The natives of your new country could care less than most of you chose their country. Some may even resent you if you have an attitude that they owe you anything. Make an effort to learn to local language because at some point there will be no one to translate and the natives will respect your making an effort to try and fit in. Romanian will be much easier than Hungarian to learn. Hungarian is one of the most difficult languages to master and even after 5 years I struggle to go beyond basic speech.

The food will be different, the laws are different as are the customs of your new host country. Do not expect customer service as you have known it back home. Most places are slow to respond to emails, text messages and telephone calls if at all here in Eastern Europe even if you speak the language or have someone help translating. If your need is urgent expect to make an in person visit for assistance. Getting utilities connected or installed may take weeks or months depending upon the remoteness of the property. It may only take a couple days if in a village or city.

Many will leave because they miss family and friends from back home and get lonely. Eastern Europeans seem to live a much slower pace of life and if you are always in a hurry you are not going to do well here in Eastern Europe.. If you are considering a property make certain it has available mobile phone coverage and also some type of fiber optic internet or similar available if you are expecting to stay in contact with others. You will need a dependable motor vehicle with all wheel drive if you live in the countryside in most places and I would encourage you to purchase a 2nd vehicle as a back up if you live off the beaten path. I know a couple who live this way here in Hungary and they are always having car trouble and having to walk a few miles to a village when their car acts up. Having a reliable car is a must when you come here unless you live in a city with public transportation.

I have been an expat for 5 years and at times I did consider packing it up and returning home the first year but I refused to quit and I love my choice to escape from the home country and have no plan to ever leave now. Good Luck to all.

Thank you for this, especially the rural roads, my husband's Grandfather was from Romania, my daughter will visit this summer.

Fantastic, I lived in Bulgaria which is also a beautiful country, and I will live there again.
I can’t wait, the United Kingdom is finished as is Western Europe.
