Romania is the Latino among the Slavic brothers. As the only country in Eastern Europe, a Latin language is spoken here and the population is a mix of East and West. Romania has a turbulent history, but since the fall of the Socialist Ceaușescu regime, the country has spread its wings. Romania is increasingly profiling itself as an adventurous hotspot.
