Hi, I'm Laura, I am the author and promoter of the Bucharest Step by Step concept and I very much enjoy organizing thematic and custom-made walking tours in and around Bucharest. I LOVE MY CITY BECAUSE: Bucharest may not strike you as a glamorous or grandiose European capital, with a meticulously preserved architectural heritage. But it is precisely this unselfconsciousness coupled with spectacular contrasts and an incredible vitality that makes Bucharest such a unique place. ONE OF THE THINGS I ENJOY THE MOST: to uncover hidden gems and cool spots off the beaten path and share them with tourists from all around the world. Why choose me as a tour guide? - I am always up-to-date with all the new hip places in town - all my tours are carefully adapted to suit your specific interests and needs - on my tours you will receive lots of information and recommendations about what to see and do while in Bucharest Join me on a discovery tour and you will surely come to love this scarred, chaotic, eclectic but fascinating and vibrant city. Welcome to Bucharest! - National Guide License - BA in Foreign Languages (German, English); sworn translator/ interpreter International experience: - ERASMUS mobility scholarship, Ruhr-Bochum University, Germany - CEEPUS Scholarship in Rijeka, Croatia - OEAD Scholarship in Vienna, Austria I do not drive but I collaborate with several transport companies. The Palace of Parliament & the Ceausescu Mansion have their own guides for the interior visits.
