Man, what a day! I woke up in Rasnov, and let me tell ya, it was a rollercoaster. First off, I’m not even sure why I decided to go out. Maybe it was the fresh air? Or maybe I just wanted to escape my couch. Who knows?
So, I hit the streets, right? I’m walking down Strada Poienelor, and it’s like, boom! The sun is shining, birds are chirping, and I’m thinking, “Today’s gonna be lit!” But then, outta nowhere, I trip over a cobblestone. Like, seriously? Who thought it was a good idea to make the streets look like a medieval obstacle course? I’m fine, just a little bruised ego, ya know?
Anyway, I shake it off and head towards the Rasnov Fortress. That place is epic! I mean, it’s like stepping back in time. I’m climbing up those steep steps, and I’m huffing and puffing like I just ran a marathon. But the view? OMG, it’s worth it! You can see the whole valley, and I’m like, “Why don’t I live here?”
So, I’m up there, taking pics, feeling all philosophical. Then I see this couple arguing. Like, full-on shouting. I’m thinking, “Dude, you’re at a historic site, chill!” But nah, they’re too busy airing their dirty laundry. I mean, come on, save it for the Strada Cetății, right?
After that drama, I decide to grab a bite. I hit up this little place on Strada Republicii. The food? To die for! I order sarmale, and it’s like a flavor explosion in my mouth. I’m sitting there, scarfing it down, and I overhear this guy talking about the local legends. Apparently, Rasnov is haunted. Great, just what I need—ghosts on top of my bad luck today!
So, I finish my meal, and I’m feeling all warm and fuzzy inside. But then, I step outside, and it starts pouring. Like, seriously? I’m drenched in seconds. I’m running down Strada Gării, trying to find shelter, and I look like a wet dog. Not cute.
Finally, I duck into a café. I’m sitting there, sipping on some hot chocolate, and I can’t help but laugh at my day. I mean, who else can say they’ve tripped, seen a couple fight, and got rained on all in one day? Only me, right?
Then, as if the universe is playing a prank on me, I see the same couple from earlier walk in. They’re all lovey-dovey now. I’m like, “What the heck?!” I guess Rasnov really works its magic.
As the rain lets up, I decide to stroll around the old town. The vibe is chill, and I’m just soaking it all in. I pass by the old church, and it’s so beautiful. I’m thinking, “Man, I need to come here more often.”
But then, I spot a street performer. He’s playing the accordion, and it’s actually kinda good. I toss him a few coins, and he gives me a nod. I feel like a local hero for a sec.
By the time I head back home, I’m exhausted but happy. Rasnov, you wild city, you’ve got my heart. I can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings. Maybe less rain, more adventure? Who knows! But I’m ready for it.
