Richard, trinkst Du oder was?

I spent the weekend in Sibiu, Romania to take part in an event organized by Hannes and Bianca. We met some lovely people there drinking cognac out of a canister and eating rock-hard sausages. What struck me most was how Romania copes with the advent of western capitalism. I particularly liked this screen in the center of Sibiu which was supposed to show annoying advertising clips but since the display did not work it showed the most furious stroboscope-like flickering one can imagine and nobody seemed to bother.

And if you leave the town you suddenly find yourself in the most beautiful landscape which is hard to describe and impossible to capture in 400x300 pixels.
