A few of my high school friends invited me out to the forest in a neighboring village for the weekend. May 1st is a big deal in Romania. It's officially recognized as International Worker's Day here (Ziua Muncii), and it is what we know as May Day.
After school on Friday we gathered the necessities for our weekend and hopped the bus to take us near Dâmbău. After getting off the bus we had a little hike ahead of us through the hills. We walked for a few kilometers and finally arrived at the farm and cabana where we were staying. It was nice to get away and really enjoy the scenery in my little part of Transylvania. We grilled a lot of food, we drank homemade wine, we wandered through the woods (or the Shire as I like to call it), and I taught them how to roast marshmallows around the fire.
It was a relaxing weekend that I desperately needed. However, it brought with it the realization that I have TWO months left here in Romania, and I don't know how I'm going to say goodbye.
