This the essential info we have until now. Of course, there is room for a lot more and that’s exactly what we intend to do: grab more practical info about this event from our future experiences or by the help of local people.
However, you too can help us to speed up this documentation process. If you have useful info about this event please check this Cultural Event submision form for further instructions.

Let’s spread the word!
Hi! I am Ciprian.
I love to explore the world and so I found that any worthwhile trip needs a rock-solid plan. One built around clear trip goals and based on simple and practical info.
Well, that info already exists but it is spread in too many places. My long term goal is to bring it here. Not all. Just the minimum you need to plan the trip that really meets your expectations.
