What is the best thing about living in Estonia?
I think that Estonia is a great place to live. I like the group where I am working. They have good computer facilities and are fine lectures. Estonians are modest people and they make very good friends when you get to know them. And last but not least I love the Estonian flora and untouched nature and its beautiful nature.
How would you describe your career perspective in Estonia?
Now I have to finish my PhD and afterwards I will think further. Unfortunately Estonia is rather far from Romania and I still have family there to. I consider to return to Romania. Anyway where I will go I hope to keep a close ties with Estonia and with the kind people I have met here.
What was the hardest thing for you to adjust when you moved to Estonia?
At the beginning I knew nobody in Estonia and it was rather difficult to get in touch with people, I mean to go further than the official relations and to make some friends.
What do you miss from your home country?
My family, my mother, relatives, friends, otherwise I have here everything I need.
You should visit Estonia because…
Estonia has a well preserved nature. Tallinn is the best preserved city in Europe and Estonians are really nice people.
