My stay was good. With Marius we shared good talks about music and other topics. I had to leave a week earlier for a medical check-up. Some things: 🚎 There is no public transportation in the area, so you will have to talk to Marius to get around Maramures. We visited some villages, wooden churches and a monastery in the area. 🥞 If you are just a volunteer you will generally cook for the two of you and eat together, except for breakfast. This can be a bit of a hassle if you are very independent with your times and meals, although Marius is flexible. Thank you for everything! 🌼
