Life in Timisoara

Timisoara, the third largest city in Romania, and one of the wealthiest city. I guess that's the reason why I choose Timisoara. We all know that Romania is dangerous with gypsies and pickpockets, well, I would like to avoid all that!

let's begin with the routine life here. well, all of us have been assigned to work in an institution, but unfortunately not all the institution are functioning! I have friends who sleep til 2pm in the afternoon and have lunch after 3pm, sleeps around 4am after clubbing. that's their summer.

I've tried to construct my summer holiday to be better than that by waking before 12 pm,  have my lunch between 12 to 1pm, work and finally sleep around 12 am.

nothing much in this city because most of the attractions are under construction! that's a really sad thing as we couldn't see the best of Timisoara within our stay, hence,  Iulius mall became our first choice place to visit! 
                I introduce you, Iulius mall!

A mall with the biggest hypermarket in town, Auchan, with big brands like H&M and Zara, a big food court and a big cinema!
it has become the EPs first choice of visit as we all have to do our grocery, buy ingredients for dinner, entertained, and hide from the sun and rain.

well, some little thing that I've noticed during my stay in Romanian. They love coffee! There are coffee machines almost everywhere serving all kind of instant coffee with only one lei per cup! The Romanian simply love it. They have to take a cup of coffee from the machine whenever it's possible. besides that, most of the driver in Romania are gentle. They will stop for pedestrian to cross the road even there's no traffic light. its a good habit that they have. speaking of good habit, well, one of the habit that the Romanian have that I hate the most is, they love smoking! they smoke everywhere, even indoors and public area, they couldn't stop smoking, and smoking seems to be the national habit of Romania! I wonder have they ever learn about the harm of smoking.


With that, it basically sums up my life in Timisoara.
