● About Me
If you are drawn to travel, culture, books, and good food, you are in the right place.
I’m Ruxandra, a writer with a constant itch for exploring the world—both through my words and my travels. When I am not looking for inspiration for the next tale to tell, you may as well find me at any given coffee shop, writing and sharing my exploits.
This blog is a reflection of my two great passions: writing and travelling. You’ll find my posts available in Romanian, Spanish, and English, as I believe stories are meant to cross borders and languages.
