Romania is a country in South-East Europe. Romania sits between the Balkans and Eastern Europe, so it borders Ukraine, Moldova, Bulgaria, Serbia and Hungary and the Black Sea. By European standards, Romania is a big country. This means that there is much to explore, see and do.<\/p>
Many international students find themselves in the capital Bucharest. But, unlike in many other countries, students can also find themselves elsewhere. Timi\u0219oara, Cluj-Napoca and Ia\u0219i are all cities with large numbers of students – and the nightlife and study experiences to match. In fact, Timi\u0219oara will even be a European Capital of Culture in 2023.<\/p>
