Dragobete is a traditional Romanian holiday, celebrated on February 24 (today).

Dragobete was the son of Baba Dochia, who is the main character in the myth about the arrival of spring and the end of the harsh winter. Because of his infinite goodness, he was chosen as the guardian of love.

The day is known as “the day when birds are hired.” During this time, the birds begin to build (normally) nests and mating. On this day, which is considered the first day of spring on the site, boys and girls collect spring flowers and sing together. The girls collected the snow that was on the ground in many villages and then melted it, using the water in potions for the rest of the year.

Transalpina, Transfăgărășan, Bucegi and Făgăraș Mountains and many others. There are many wonderful trails through Romania's mountains and nature.

They are not prepared everywhere in Romania according to the same recipe. Depending on the region and taste of the individual, they also in size vary from one place to another.

Sarmas contains meat wrapped with other ingredients in vine leaves or sauerkraut. Sarmale can be without meat (vegetarian) with vegetables.

We present a special recipe from Moldova with meat filling.
For 1 kg of minced meat (pork, beef, chicken or a mixture) add:
- 4 - 5 medium onions
- 100 grams of rice
- salt, pepper - one teaspoon each
- Dill and parsley - to taste
- Tomato broth (150 grams)
- 4 tablespoons oil (in combination with chicken)

If the meat is lean, add a few tablespoons of breadcrumbs or corn flour to better tie the mixture. Mix the contents well and then wrap it in vine leaves or cabbage, according to your preferences.

Cook for about two (2) hours, placing the sarmale close to each other in a saucepan and adding water. When the liquid in which the sarmale boils is low, add hot water to compensate. Check after the first hour of cooking and then whenever you think it is necessary.

We thank "Mama" Postolache for the recipe and her daughter for work and images.

From the amount of ingredients, about 120 wires are produced. They are usually consumed with sour cream (cream / cream) and hot pepper (chili pepper). Also, depending on the region, white bread and polenta (from maize semolina, similar to Italian polenta) are added.

We wish you good appetite (Bon appetite) 😋🥰

Life in the countryside is very different from life in the cities. It is characterized by family, hospitality, traditions, hardships, and hard work well into old age.

And ... it is often a happier life than we imagine. Those who have little worry less, and the many daily news updates of the world, which we constantly receive on our phones (and don’t really need), reach these people less often or perhaps not at all.

We thank the photographer Sorin Onișor ( Sorin Onișor ) for the permission to use these atmospheric images.

We follow the Zitzmann family through Romania, which not only allowed us to use the photos from the trip (end of September 2023), but also to capture the experiences and adventures. Thank you!

"Romania, day 19, the Apuseni Mountains, we pass over passers-by, and therefore we pass very original and simple villages, where rural life and crafts still matter. It all seems peaceful, but we suspect life here is demanding for people. Huge stacks of hay are taken from the fields by cart and horse to be stored. We visit a market and see a knife chopper, a broom maker and many small shops. A man was selling carved spoons. Tomorrow we visit an ice cave. This is part of the Apuseni Nature Park and contains the most compact underground ice block in Europe, with a volume of 75,000 cubic metres and a thickness of up to 26 metres. Let's see what we see. We found another great place to sleep, with a few woofers that we fed."

Thanks to Gerhard Daniela Zitzmann for pictures and text.
