Romania second home

Dear reader,

Thank you for joining us on the journey of 18 newcomers for whom Romania has become their second home.

Even though we are different, with different traditions, customs, and life experiences, we are all building, day by day, an extremely beautiful and complex puzzle of a multicultural society.

We hope that ”Romania, second home” has helped you get to know and understand our interviewees a little better and has thus managed to build new bridges for a necessary dialogue free of stereotypes.

Our project does not stop here.

We are preparing new surprises, which we hope will be as pleasant as possible, because Radio Romania has been, since 1928, the number one voice that unites, promotes values and education, provides prompt, objective and balanced information, and aims to be your invisible but irreplaceable diary.
