Ioana is part of the ITB team, and we may say she played a big part in shaping our project’s identity. She is most appreciated for her great touring experience, and for being super knowledgeable and exceptionally friendly. We must warn you – that joy of hers is contagious!

I was born and raised in Bucharest. I lived in this city all my life. Well….it’s natural for me to be a Bucharestenian, I mean for me, it’s just home.

By allowing myself to try and see what this really meant. Never before have I thought of becoming one :)). I’ve gone on multiple tours, experimenting them from the ’tourist’s shoes’, I loved the experience and when I had the opportunity to start doing cultural tours myself, I said why not. And it was enough to do that once to realize that this was what I wanted to do from then on.

All the opportunities we have here. If you want to study a certain subject, you can find a faculty that will suit (in most of the cases), if you want to become a volunteer for a cause, there are plenty of choices to choose from, if you want to watch a movie, to enjoy a concert or to see an art exhibition, there are a lot of opportunities as well. Or, if you want to book a cultural walking tour, again there is a full range of options.

The Christmas tradition of making ‘’cozonac’’ – a traditional cake with cocoa and nuts cream, flavored with a lot of spices. Since it takes a few hours to prepare it, you can have your house smelling like orange and cinnamon for an entire day. What else can be better? Maybe the smell of clove coming from a hot, steamy cup of mulled wine ;).
