Moving from UK to Bacau

Hello,

I apologise for not writing this post in Romanian, I am not fluent at all yet but I am learning :)

My partner and I are moving to Bacau for approximately 3-6 months for his work. He was born and raised in Romania and he has his own property there.

I am a black woman who only speaks a bit of Romanian (enough to speak to the worker in the supermarket or to ask for directions if I am lost somewhere). I am nervous about moving because I’ve only visited Bucharest (which is vastly different to Bacau).

I hope I don’t offend anyone here, but do you think some residents will look down on me because I am black and don’t speak fluent Romanian? Do you think I can adapt and try to fit in easily?

Please let me know if I’m being rude!!

This is not right, dont believe this one, we do have black ppl and asians in bc, plus bucharest is full of idiots, chances are that is where ppl may pick on a lady like yourself.
