Sibiu: My New Dream Destination :)
Posted by catmille13 at 04:34 PM on June 8, 2009.
It's sooo common for me to hear people answering these following places whenever the question: "What is your Dream Destination?"
"Paris!"
"New York!"
"Hawaii!"
"Singapore!"
"Hong Kong!"
"Beijing!"
"Seoul!"
"Milan!"
Very familiar, rrright?!?
I
admit, I do mention some of these places too whenever that question is
thrown upon me but as I was reading the paper today (among the
newspapers, I ONLY READ INQUIRER, haha!), I saw a feature in the
Lifestyle Section entitled: Gentle, surprising Transylvania, from Sir Augusto Villalon's Pride of Place column.
And 'lo and behold... I was taken by the place he featured, as in truly taken! 
I was enchanted on how Sibiu (in Transylvania, Romania) was restored to become the 2007 European Cultural Capital... waay cool!
Frankly, I have NEVER been to that place but after reading the article, everything about it made me feel magical... that I almost wished that as soon as I
placed the paper down, a roundtrip ticket to Sibiu would suddenly
appear infront of me!
I would really rrrreeaaaallyyyy love to see the Brukenthal Museum, the City Hall, the Gothic-inspired churches, the houses that date back to the 19th century, and everything else in the Piata Mare (Big Square)!
Just by merely reading, I was already enthralled to see Sibiu for myself!
But going back to reality... I was then a bit crushed since I only have 1 problem...
HOW THE HELL WOULD I GET THERE?!?
With just a passport (that I think is already expired... for the 2nd time!)
and a thrist to learn about Sibiu's culture in tow, my dream of seeing
my newest fave destination would most probably have to wait...
And I am soooo hoping I wouldn't wait for too loooooong!
