1st stop: Siguisoara!

Face Warsaw without Kuba almost became a real nightmare...and we only wanted to leave! How could something that was already so well planed turn up side down :) it feels so good when it happens!

ok, over 26? no international student card ( even if is a fake one) saved us of paying a full and expensive ticket :) running from one ticket office to other, trying to speak 5 unusefull west European languages we missed the direct train to Romania...

with a little bug inside saying that maybe was not that bad spend one more night with Kuba :)brave Tanya could not loose one more day of travel. And together, two best friends jumped inside a train to Budapest without ticket and with a terrible past experience in this same situation some years ago :) we didn't care...We were together!

Polish controller came inside the carruage, we said we had no tickets and if it was possible we would like to buy it :) It was possible to buy it of course until the border. (Russian couple have told me was cheaper to buy tickets until borders than buy a full ticket).

Some years before in Hungary because we had no reservation, controller kicked us out in the middle of nowhere so this time we decided to jump out before it would happen. Very late evening, last polish train stop, good spot in the floor to sleep :)

The sun raised early, time to walk :) we decided to cross the border walking and get back to train again in Slovakia. In the middle of the way we found some guards that very gently took us to border...Everything was going fine until I realize my beautiful bag with my camera was forgotten in the train station in Poland :( nothing could make me unhappy not even my stolen camera :)

10 km walking until next village with train station, for almost 10 euros was possible to cross all Slovakia,unbelievable... And between beautifully mountains and forgotten castles we arrived in Hungary... The game was almost starting :) ladies and gentleman welcome to the controllers bribing world!

How much is the ticket to Budapest? May we pay in Euros? 10 euros both, no paper? Deal! Oh my God...We bribed the controllers!

well we crossed all Hungary for 15 euros each and from Romanian Border until Siguisoara we didn't even pay...Lucky was with us but until when? Was too much attractive what was happening to even ask...

Lovely siguisoara, field up with gypsies, dracula stories and tourists :)

Time to go to Bucharest where Vera was waiting for us :)
