If you love to visit places where you can step back into time then such a fascinating place is Sighisoara in Mures County, Romania. I have long been interested in the historic region of Transylvania. Many of you will recognize this name, especially if you are a fan of Dracula movies. Lovely Sighisoara counts as one of the best preserved inhabited citadels in Europe and is on the UNESCO list as a World Heritage Site. It is the home of the notorious Vlad the Impaler, who inspired Bram Stocker to write his novel “Dracula”. Be not afraid but lose yourself in the thrill and the romance of this citadel where you roam among ancient towers and narrow cobblestone streets. Where you get lost in another world. and there is something fascinating to see all around.

Sewmini JamesPublished 2 years ago in WanderTransformative Travel To Overcome Uncertainty

All of us have something in life that is a habit or a weakness we can’t do without, don’t we? The best example is the usage of our mobile phones. No matter what people say, we need that wireless device in our hand constantly for calling, texting, browsing, finding locations and so much more.
