Digital Nomad Life in Romania

By Joshua Wood, LPC

Summary: Romania is becoming increasingly popular as a destination for digital nomads. The most popular cities for digital nomads in Romania are Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, and Timisoara. Digital nomads like living in Romania because of its low cost of living, vibrant culture, and excellent infrastructure. A digital nomad can live comfortably in Romania on a monthly budget of around $1,000 to $1,500. This budget can cover rent, food, transportation, and other expenses. The culture of Romania is a mix of Eastern European and Balkan influences. It is known for its vibrant music, art, and cuisine. Romania is also home to many UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including the medieval city of Sighisoara and the Danube Delta.

How do I meet people in Romania?

When we asked people living in Romania about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded:

"There are no clubs or anything. It's very hard here to meet Expats and even Romanians. I am alone all day. Some tourists come to Mamaia in Summer but it's so run down, only some Romanians from Bucharest are visiting," remarked one foreigner who made the move to Constanta.

"There's the American corner, though I've never visited it. Social networking sites can be a great resource also, you'll find many curious Romanians that will seek you out if you're friendly and intelligent," explained one person living in Iasi, Romania.

"I have met very few Americans, the rare businessman passing through, a few students. You are more likely to encounter Brits or other foreigners," said one expat in Iasi.

"The International Women's Association is a great place to meet female expats from all walks of life, including from the host country. IWA is extremely involved in charity work and hosts an annual bazaar in December, which is the highlight of the organization's year. Moms with small children have several baby groups from which to choose, both in the suburbs by the American school and in the city," remarked one member in Bucharest.
