My Romania Story - Daniel Berling (German): The nature is unbelievable. It's the greatest asset of this country

As part of our Romania Appreciation Weeks campaign, we're inviting our readers to share their stories and tell the world what they love about the country. Daniel Berling, a German married to a Romanian woman, joined our campaign and filled in this questionnaire. Below you can read more about how his Romania story started and what he loves about the country.

Daniel Berling's connection to Romania started as he was trying to rent his Berlin flat. He has since married a Romanian and has been living in Brașov since September. "Everything that happened to me in the last years has sooner or later something to do with Romania," he says. The local culture reminds him of the German one, and he lists the country's nature as one of its greatest assets. Deforestation should be stopped immediately, he says. He also enjoyed the interactions with the locals he has had so far, as people are curious about others, and he encourages Romanians to stay at home and work on their dreams, rather than going for a job abroad for which they are overqualified.
