From travel

I'm currently living in Ankara, and somewhat on a whim I booked a cheap direct flight to Bucharest. I'm thinking of spending just a night in Bucharest, and then going to Brasov from there and using it as a base (likely for around 5 days). The entire trip is about a week long.

A part of me is somewhat considering ditching the ticket and perhaps flying somewhere else (perhaps Albania, Czech Republic, or Slovenia). Hard to explain, but certain places somewhat pull me in (and Romania did when I initially booked it).
