We are Jacob and Jenny, a husband and wife passionate about traveling the world. We started uploading in May, 2021 with a goal to see as much of the globe as possible. After visiting Costa Rica and French Polynesia, the time was right to quit our full-time jobs, so we left everything to travel and have loved every minute of it. Our goal is to make it to all seven continents and visit as many countries as possible. Follow along and be a part of the journey!

My ex also cried when I brought him to Romania... when he saw my hometown's region with trees, mountains and golden fields... he was amazed
It is such a gorgeous place, truly breathtaking! Thanks for sharing your story :)
what is your hometown region?
@@ciripa I took him to Costesti, jud. Hunedoara during the summer and the view on our way there was amazing.
@@alexia2189 pe la Sarmisegetusa? pe acolo? i ai dat dauna inseamna :))
@@ciripa da da, prin zona aia. E superbă!
I want to run to Romania, too..My heart is in Romania now..The place that made Jenny cry
It is such a wonderful place!! Busteni and Brasov are a dream! Thank you for your kind comment friend :)
@@JacobandJennyTravelUauuuu❤❤😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉
I just found you today, just finished all your Romania clips and you posted now a new one! This is amazing, made my day. I love how much you love my country, and now it's your country as well. I recommend you visit Romania again in the future because it has a lot to offer and you cannot see it all in one trip. I like you guys, you have a great energy, beautiful couple.
We are so happy to hear that you are enjoying our videos! We are loving Romania so much, it is such a special place. We want to come back in the winter when it is snowing. Thank you so much for your kind words :)
@@JacobandJennyTravel
Unfortunately due to climate change it’s not snowing much anymore not even in Romania which used to have great white winters ; nowadays except in some of the mountains eventually…and that’s why everything is rather greyish in winter and compared to the 60s, 70s and 80s the lack of snow looks rather sad
I SO NICE TO SEE JENY CRY FOR A POZITIVE EMOTION
It was so beautiful!!! I loved it 😍
Another beautiful city is Oradea, !!
We will look it up!! Thank you for the information :)
And Cluj-Napoca and Timișoara and Maramureș there is a lot off towns to see and Transfăgărășan road and transalpina road
@@petricatofan1158 There's so many places we have to go! Thanks for the recommendations!
@@JacobandJennyTravel try Oradea, it's a must :)
@@petricatofan1158Fraților nu Trebuie sã Ne Contrazicem în Comentarii care e Cel mai Frumos Oraş din România , desigur fiecare e mândru de Oraşul Natal dar per ansamblu Toatã România e Superbã Frumoasã, şi Sfântã
I guess by the end of the Romania trip, our country will be one Jenny's favourites! You 2 are welcome to Romania. Always.
You are SO right! It is already one of my favorites!!
No one would blame you for crying. I take the train often in romania, and every time I catch a sunset I cry. I haven't had that in a while as ive been in the usa. But yesterday on the L (train in Chicago) I saw a sunset between two buildings, that literally gave me flashbacks. Your videos have made me want to finish things up here and go right back to romania haha 😄
Some things are just so beautiful!! Haha, that is so fair, Romania is incredible!! Thanks for watching :)
I am Romanian end I am so proud about my country!
It is such a wonderful place!! You should be proud :)
The old buildings that you couple has shown us are amazingly beautiful.
They are so beautiful! Thank you for watching :)
Brașov the most beautiful city of Romania !!! ♥️💛💙
It is so gorgeous! 😍 thanks for watching!!
Go see Poiana Brasov. It's a must! There's a bus taking you there and it's about 8 miles from Brasov. It's pure heaven.
We will look that up! Thank you so much for the recommendation :)
Stay at least 1 night in Poiana Brasov.
😊
Used to be more of a heaven. Now is overcrowded with constructions.
I didn't spend that much time in Brasov when I was in Romania - your video will have to suffice. Traditionally the Romanian nation had three main principalities - Wallachia, or the southern Danubian plain region; Moldova, or northeastern Romania; and finally Ardeal, or Transylavania. Historically, the Germans were really big in Transylvania, and Brasov, called Kronnstadt in German, was one of the Siebenburgen, or Seven Walled Cities of Transylvania. Vlad Tepes, or Vlad the Impaler / Dracula, was born in the Transylvanian city of Sighisoara but he was a prince of Wallachia, or southern Romania, and ruled from Targoviste, which is some 50 miles northwest of modern day Bucharest. Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of Homeopathic Medicine, spent a lot of time in Transylvania, in Brasov, I believe. William Penn, who was of German descent, founded the American colony of Pennsylvania - where do you think he got the -sylvania suffix from? Transylvania!
Wow this is so interesting!! So much incredible history there. Thank you for sharing all that :)
If you want to meet bears you take a car and go to Transfăgărășan Highway which was name " the Best road in the world!" By Jeremy Clarkson of Top Gear.
Yes that is our plan!! We are so excited :) thanks for watching and the recommendation!
I love the enthousiasme of this awesome woman, she is adorable..
You are so kind! Thank you very much :) I appreciate it.
If you are still in Brasov,i recommend you to eat at 'La Ceaun'. They are serving traditional romanian dishes,and they are located in Piata Sfatului. If you wanna discover more about Romania,try Maramures and Bucovina.
We have heard from a few people that restaurant is amazing! We need to try it for sure! Thanks for the information :)
You are wonderful guests. I am glad that you felt good in our country. Thank you for the nice words! All the best,my dears !
We absolutely loved it! Romania is a wonderful place :) the best to you as well!!
Hello and welcome to Brașov, 3 places where you must eat : La Ceaun Pilvax and Sergiana, all 3 are in Old Town,very close to where you are staying.
I wish you as pleasant stay as possible
We will check them out! Thank you so much for the recommendations :)
You passed by the house of the mistress of Vlad Tepes (Dracula) - minute 7:30 Katarina (name of the gate)
Oh yes we read about that!! So fascinating! I wish we knew that was her house.
11:18 Tears of joy - nothing better than those !! 😊
We totally agree!! Thank you for watching friend :)
Sending you all the love from Romania! ❤ as a Romanian, seeing you cry made me emotional ..
Romania is such a beautiful place ♥️ thank you so much for your comment!
You guys are soooooooooo nice !!! Thank you for being so very kind to our country and being so pozitive and uplifting ! You are simply beautiful ! Thank you. Kisses from Romania , i subscribed to your wonderful channel❤❤❤❤❤
You are so kind! Thank you so much friend. Romania is so wonderful and we love it so much 😍
I discovered your channel few days ago. I'm impressed by Jenny's perspective. She's into history, architecture and romanticism (Jacob said that )😊
Jenny, maybe in a past life you lived in an Eastern Europe medieval city, who knows ? ❤
We are so happy you found us! A lot of my family is from Eastern Europe, so who knows!! Thank you for watching ♥️
Great video. I’m visiting Brasov in three weeks for the first time, your video has given me some great ideas of things to do.
You are going to have an amazing time!! Brasov is so incredible :) let us know if you have any questions!
I miss Germany so much, this reminds me of it. God made the earth so beautiful! How did I end up surrounded by cornfields??😢 The churches in Europe are massive and old. Loved your video. Huge dinner, it looked so good!!
germany had large populations in estern europe , germans and austrians owned transilvania and not only for the past 1000 years so the architecture reflects that. The country was always invaded and rulled by other nations since forever. It was since forever divied in 3 , transilvania and western parts were dominated by austrian,german,hungary (habsburg empire,hungarian empire ,etc) ; the south part was dominated by Greece and Turkey ( Bizantine empire and later Ottoman empire) ; estern part domninated by poland and Russia. In ancient times it was dominated by Roman empire, Goths ,Mongol empire ,Persian empire,cumans and many many others. The mesaghete queen Tomiris that defeated the Persian Emperor Cyrus the Great had it's seat of power in Dobrogea region in the city of Tomis not called Constanza. Another interesting fact is that ancient romanians called dacians were the only nation conquered by the Roman empire that were praised in roman arts , more than 15% of roman statues depict dacians ,many of them in expensive stone; they recently found more than 200 dacian villages in northern Italy. The welsh flag is inspired by the dacian draco as welsh was under a dacian army send by Rome. The Constantin Arch in Rome depicts the 6 dacian generals of Emperor Constantin. Trajan's column in Rome depicts the history of Roman-Dacian wars ,were emperor Trajan is depicted talking directly with dacian prisoniers without an interpreter. The dacians traveled as far as India , romanian language has more than 2000 words common with punjabi. Richard the first of Normandy was learning the dacian language at around 900
We agree! It is making us want to go back to Germany so much! Haha🌽 good thing God gave us airplanes to escape the corn (and in our case the desert lol) Thanks Sonja ♥️
You have to go to Sighisoara, Cluj,Sibiu.......
Thank you for the recommendation :)
Gotta love when the train has ac. That hotel is super fancy! That is a pretty cool 🕸 Jacob don't pop Jenny Romantic bubble! 🐻 Blood is thicker than water; and it tastes better too
Train AC is a game changer lol! Hahahah 🩸🤢
Thank you, for seeing the good in everything! Infectious!
This comment made us happy! Thank you friend!! :)

Guy's ur wondering around THE MOST WELL PRESERVED ARCHITECTURAL COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD. ORADEA ALSO IS A MUST SEE...IT'S THE BEST PRESERVED ARCHITECTURE OVERALL. & TIMIŞOARA AS WELL ( THE FIRST CITY POWERLIGHTED BY ELECTRICITY IN THE EUROPE.
It is such a gorgeous country!! We fell in love with it! Thank you so much for the information :)
Guys, you know that you 2 are in ro news?I just read about you:) you are lovely couple,very,very nice people!🤗
We have gotten a few comments about that!! That is so cool!! Thank you very much for your kind words :)
Welcome to Brasov. Hope you enjoyed it here. Not sure if you saw the Belvedere view, which is on the road that goes to Poiana Brasov. From there you can see the full city. Very nice view.
Also you should have tried going up to the Brasov sign, either walking or with the cable car, which is not so expensive, plus you have a nice restaurant there to eat also.
The food its amazing, for sweets you should definetly try Papanasi ( fried dumpling with cheese inside and sweet jam covering it)
That sounds amazing! There is so many good views of Braşov. We had some papanasi and it was so delicious 🤤 thank you very much for your comment :)
@@JacobandJennyTravel as an inside ;) you are all over the national news for crying on how beautiful its Brasov :)
Thank you
@@dianaelena5472 haha wow that is so crazy!! Do you have any links to the website or news article so I could watch it?? Thank you!
@@JacobandJennyTravel sent you an e-mail. CZcams refuses links XD
pronunciation of MICI is MITCH, not Mitchie 😁
Great to know! Thanks for sharing :)
Actually it’s “meech.” Trust me.
Welcome to the City i was born and still live. 😊
It is a wonderful place!! You are lucky :)
Jenny would have loved Sighisoara;
We might have to go back for ti! Thanks for the recommendation :)
Hi guys. I found your Brasov video today. I'm actually living here. Are you still in Brasov? For good cabbage rolls and traditional food I would say you could go to "La Ceaun" - one of the best restaurants in town for traditional food. Also the walk near the Tampa Peak is quite nice and has some nice views of the town and a nice restaurant called "Sub Tampa". I imagine you are going to visit Dracula's Castle - there is a nice restaurant close called Vila Bran situated on top of a hill. You should definitely go check that out - it has a nice view of the Bran Castle too. There are 3 other places to visit if you go by car to that area - Cheile Gradistei Fundata, Plaiul Foii Zarnesti and Cheile Dâmbovicioarei. If you don't have a car we could take you there after work tomorrow evening or during weekend.
Ahh thank you so much for all of this wonderful information! This is amazing! We have heard La Ceaun is delicious. Unfortunately we are no longer in Brasov but hope we can come back soon!! Thank you friend for your generous offer :)
You should know that a city gate with four smaller towers on top aside the big one meant that city had the legal right to enforce death penalty. So it was a very visible warning for whoever entry the city that rules are to be obeyed.
Oh wow, that is wild! Thanks for the information :)
We are waiting for you, dearfully, to come back to us anytime.
We hope we will be back so soon! Thanks for watching :)
România is very beutifull,but need time for discover!
It is so beautiful and special! We love exploring it🇷🇴
I just saw the house where my mother was born
That is so cool! Haha :)
My beautiful country i wish God to protect you❤😢
A wonderful country :) thank you so much!♥️
@@JacobandJennyTravel hugs & love
Well next time do Freddo Cappuccino but guess from where? @Starbucks
Haha next time!! Thanks for watching :)
That is not a taxi….is ride sharing 👍
Taxi is provide by local authority of the city and they are cheap. And give you the receipt when you finish the trip, the price remain all the time the same ( in the day is 2.99 lei \ km and in the night is 3.50 lei \ km)
Enjoy romania 🇷🇴
Right :) thanks so much for watching!!
I'm wondering if the internet is consistently good throughout Romania, or if some cities have more stable internet than others. What do you think?
Everywhere we stayed had very good wifi but we never went to any really small towns!
Romania has rank#9 when we are talking about internet speed, you don t have to worry cuz everywhere on the street you have free wifi here
Hello :)
Hello!! :)
My name is Klaus Cimpean
Visit Vrancea - Soveja😊
We will look it up! Thanks for the recommendation :)
Starbucks and Five To Go are honestly a waste of money in a city that has so many specialty coffee shops with much better product for pretty much the same price. NOLA, Tipografia and CH9 are just three of the better ones in a range of circa 300 m.
We will have to give those a try! :)
🙏🙏👌👌♥️♥️♥️
👏❤️✊
🇷🇴
Not that it is very important, but Schei is pronounced Skay- ch sounds the same in Romanian as in Italian
Thanks so much for the information :)
OMG how funny with your posting of starbucks and KFC. I was trying to tell people about Brasov and they didn't understand my dismay until I showed them where they were set in comparison to all the historical buildings. just didn't seem right to see the "western" companies near the black church, etc..
Hahaha that is so funny! It is always so weird seeing super modern companies in historical areas!
Sunt dependent de video-urile voastre ❤️
This comment made us so happy!! Thank you so much friend ♥️
I think you have been to Transylvania before in another life, maybe you have memories in your subconscious!!!
It is such a beautiful place!! Lots of my family is from Eastern Europe so perhaps they lived around there :) thanks so much for watching!
It's meech, not meecheeeeee :)
Haha good to know!! Thanks :)
🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵👌👌👌♥️♥️♥️
Recently independent Romania? 😮
she think about 1989 perhaps... when Romania escape from communism from 1945-1989 we were a "satellite" (vassal) of Soviet Union
@@dand7763 Hi, you have a Romanian flag at your profile pic so I will assume you are Romanian. Romania was never a satellite/vassal of Russia :), the only common thing between the two countries in the period you mentioned is that they were under a communist regime. You could call whatever they were called the states that were part of USSR, as far as I know Romania never was one :)...going back to Romania's independence that was in 1877 so not so recent 😊
@@user-kc5uc3hi8g we were their underdogs , pets , don't be ashamed... all Eastern Europe were their "shield" against "imperialist pigs from West" (that was credo at the time) ,much more we were under the Moscow influence until 1997 (Emil Constantinescu),when finally Romania left Moscow politics and going to EU and NATO
@@dand7763 there are facts and opinions ...
Yes we were referring to 1989, but we of course do not know tons of Romanian history :)
I've seen one more example and it might be true...Brasov makes women cry with happyness...WOW! Watch this at minute 7:32...Is this real???czcams.com/video/rTxvy11k87w/video.html
Wow I am not sure haha! Brasov is so wonderful though :) thanks for watching!
Jenny, try another explanation of your coming tears in front of the gate/ bulding.... perhaps, sometimes, in another life y have been here, in fact, your physionomy looks like mountain local girls. Who knows! 😇
Some of my family is from Eastern Europe so who knows :) thanks so much for watching!!
if you think the bolts and ubers are cheap, imagine we pay for a liter of gas the same you pay for a gallon in the us, the gallon is about 3-4 liters. That's what makes america the land of opportunity ,businesses pay 4 times less and charge 4 times more ,and at the end of the year 95% of taxes in america are still paid by the working middle class ,meanwhile the one percent that own 99% of america pay nothing.
Jenny needs to edit out all the "like" fillers....
👍🏼
Most of the turist they expect Romania to be a very poor country and very comunist and old but surprise we not so comunist country anymore
It is a wonderful place :)
