According to this badly written presentation, Rand Fishkin from SeoMoz will be present to an event called SEM Days in Bucharest on June 5th. Good for Romanian Search enthusiasts, they will have much to learn from him. But, upon further research, he will not be present in person, but will answer questions via skype. OK, […]

  Some months ago, a friend asked me what did i think about setting up a small office in Brasov, the city i currently live. He was an online company manager wanting to escape the large costs of having to pay large salaries and rents to employees. And i remembered how Sergiu Biris, the CEO […]

“Why do you clean the sidewalk? Why are you working like a chump for others?” It’s not the first time I’ve heard these words. I used to get out in the morning in the winter when i was young and clean the snow from the sidewalk for the flat i was living with my parents. […]

Last night, in Bucharest it was hell. Young people fought with the police, threw stones, torched a car and broke windows. This is unusual for Romania, but it’s usual for the people doing it, because there are two types of people protesting: the football hooligans and the normal people.

Since I left Bucharest (I’ve moved to Berlin, Oradea and now Brasov)  I’ve developed a personal brand strategy. I show up for a few conferences and gigs and people tend to cherish that.

“How to Web” is a new conference taking place in Bucharest sometime soon. Looking at the team in charge of the event, i couldn’t help notice some of the little lies. For example, Raluca Georgescu created “Raluk.ro, one of the most important local entertainment websites”. I never heard of it until yesterday, and i spend […]

Last week a had a lovely job offer. Twice the money i make now, plus benefits. I had to move back to Bucharest and work in a big company. I had to say no, but the man asked me to think about it. On the drive back home i started thinking. The money are never […]

I started writing again for blog20.ro (in Romanian about Romanian internet). I hope this phase remains longer than the last one. I flew to Bucharest (12 hours by train, 45 minutes by plane and only 40€ more) and attended NetCamp, a conference organized by Cristi Manafu. Bucharest is a depressing city. Gray and without smiling […]

It’s so weird, coming from Bucharest to Berlin. Here is so quiet and peaceful, and there it was like a war zone. I still am not used tot it. But it will grow on me and i will look strange at people when i will get back to Romania. Here is a picture from my […]
