I love my country!

Dear Romania,

"There are some countries without the world would have a completely different face than the one we know today. We can all imagine how the world would be without USA, Great Britain or Italy; a world without hamburger, corporations, U.N. and the list could go on. But how many of you have tried to think of a world without Romania?" I just quoted from a small presentation I've watched these days.

I loved and I love my country, but still there are so many things I never knew about it. You should watch the presentation at the link above and you'll see what I'm talking about.

For instance, I never knew that the father of cybernetics or the inventor of fountain pen were Romanian. I also didn't know that the second spoken language in Microsoft is Romanian, right after English. I found out that the grandfather of baseball was actually a Romanian sport.

I was remembered that Nicolae Paulescu was the inventor of insulin, that Henri Coanda invented the jet plane and also that we are the first civilization creating a happy graveyard.

Man, we have a wonderful country. We are hospitable, friendly and fun. We ROCK! Come to Romania. It shall be "simply surprising".

Of course we have downsides as well. Everywhere around the world there are cool parts and bad parts. All countries have them. But still, with all the strange things, bad laws and greedy politicians, I DO LOVE MY COUNTRY!

With love,

Me. :)
