lily, I am confused. 2nd paragraph starts out with "We spoke no English". What did you mean? Did you mean that you spoke no Italian? Just trying to figure out your post.

agile do you read the posts completely ,, the post by Lily is TWO years old,, and it is also obviously just a typo as she explains later about not speaking Italian so don't split hairs, most of us can figure out what she meant.

We were warned that in Romania many places are cash only. While we never had a problem getting money from an ATM, unless you plan well ahead, you never know when there will be an ATM. We experienced many places that would take only cash, even in a large city where you wouldn't expect that to occur.
