Karina lives in Gyergyószentmiklós in the heart of Hungarian-speaking Romania with her husband and two young children. She was born in Budapest to Hungarian parents, but grew up in the U.S. Karina started to be drawn to reconnect with her Hungarian roots in her late 20s, which led her to work at a school in Budapest, and eventually meeting her American husband in Budapest while he was on a layover. Long story short, her husband fell in love with her as well as Hungarian culture. Karina had also been traveling to Transylvania during school breaks, making many friends there. That led them to make the crazy decision to get married in Gyergyószentmiklós and raise their children there. Karina is looking forward to sharing about what it’s like living in Transylvania, with as many bear stories as time allows!
