~ Romania remembrances

Two years ago, my hubby and I embarked upon the trip of a lifetime: a 12-day guided tour of Romania, led by Dacre Stoker and Romanian Treasures Travel. It was amazing. We traveled through Wallachia and Transylvania (the very words send delicious chills up my spine), hiked the Carpathians (another thrill), and immersed ourselves in all things Vlad Tepes, Dracula, and the beautiful country and people of Romania.

That trip was research for the upcoming Seeker: Book III of The Chosen.

Here’s the itinerary and route we took:

 

And from my Vampire Collectibles, here’s a little hanging sign I picked up from one the hotels in which we stayed, the Hotel Castel Dracula:

 

Since my plan to blog the trip at the time fell through due to our intense schedule (and my exhaustion!), I’ll be posting tidbits about it over the next several weeks, roughly parallel to where we were each day two years ago.

‘Til next time,
