An Expat Talks about Living in Constanta, Romania

What is the name of the city or town that you are reporting on?

Constanta

How long have you lived there?

1 year

What activities, clubs and organizations would you recommend to newcomers to help them meet others?

There are no clubs or anything. It's very hard here to meet Expats and even Romanians. I am alone all day. Some tourists come to Mamaia in Summer but it's so run down, only some Romanians from Bucharest are visiting.

They are not accepting any other religion then theirs but nobody has asked me about it so far. I try to stay away from questions like this.

I don't know. Maybe some work at the harbor and in Summer tourism.

In general, what are peoples' priorities in this city? For example, do lives revolve around work, family, socializing, sports, etc.?

Yes work they have to make a living. I see them walking in the park on weekends. Not much to do here.

If a friend of yours was thinking of moving to this city or town from far away, what other advice would you give them.

Stay away from Constanta
