“Ekaterina Ermakova and I would like to thank you for the amazing trip to Romania. We both enjoyed it a lot. Every day we discovered something new, either learned about Transylvanian rugs or enjoyed an organ concert, or visited a wonderful museum. Thank you for putting together this rich educational and entertaining program. A variety of our activities was the most pleasant and your good-natured and strong leadership allowed us to fulfill the program without missing a single event or sight. We both have been enchanted by Romania, its beautiful nature, culture and people. We find the trip very useful for everybody interested in rugs and will recommend it to our friends and colleagues. ”<\/p>\n

Thank you again<\/p>\n

We will visit the most interesting places in Bucharest and Transylvania: art museums, fortified churches, Orthodox monasteries, Royal palaces, medieval castles and pristine nature in the Carpathians. We will also have a chance to meet Lutheran pastors, Orthodox priests, art collectors, museum curators, scholars and restores.<\/p>\n

Overseas participants are are encouraged to fly through ROME (which has very good\u00a0 connections with US and also with Bucharest); they will be fully assisted to organise an enchanting journey in Rome; but remeber that\u00a0 Florence and Naples (Capri, Pompei, Sorrento, Amalfi)\u00a0 are just 2,5 hours from the Eternal City.<\/p>\n
