Why should you choose RomaniaWhy should you come in Romania, take this opportunity and make your internship, here, in Romania?Romania is a country with a beautiful landscape situated in Eastern Europe, who joined the European Union after a long period of communism and after a period of “Procust’s bed”, time in which we were looking outside of our borders and we were trying to grow quickly, to cut easily, to change very fast….Even now we are struggling to adapt our legislation, we are changing our systems from centralized to decentralized, then back to centralized, then into regional and then back to centralized…Romania is like a BIG ship of 20 million citizens that takes turns into a long time and with big efforts.We look outside our Romanian borders, we compare what we have and what other countries have, we see what is working and what is not working.Come and take this unique opportunity to see and understand more about Romania. Break barriers, leave your prejudice home and come see Romania and Romanian people! Despite the hard living, we are warm, we like to host friends, to welcome new people in our lives and laugh!Come and understand better how a country is changing very quickly from a week to another, trying to recuperate years that we lost in a communism decade.You will go back rich, with a real respect for your ancestors who made efforts to provide you a workable, respectful social system.Take this cultural adventure, be part of the Romanian-Belgian network!…and do not forget: be connected to the Network!
