Does the names Dracula, Ceausescu and Nadia Comaneci ring a bell? They all have one thing in common – their homeland is Romania. A country in the Southeastern Europe, to be more specific. The Bulgaria’s upstairs neighbor. As all good neighbors, Romania is trying to win in the „cheapest country to live in the world“ contest, at least in the hood. And it’s on the right track to do it, we can say. The results of our comparison between Sofia and Timisoara when it comes to cost of living, are going to Romania’s favor.
