I am glad that you had a good time in Romania. That part of the country is really inspiring. It is good to see that traditional methods of weaving are still in use and a bit dissapointing that there are so few places left. Cisnadie was the main producer of rugs in Romania and a few years ago - I am talking about 15-20 years ago - to have a rug from them was the ultimum achievement. My mum bought one when she was in her thirties and she was really proud of it. Quality wise - amazing. <br />Thank you for sharing.

There are also a few shops that encourage you to come by and refill your bottle. And the city water company sometimes put water trolleys out, especially on weekends, for the student/drinking crowd.... We try to bring a bottle from home when we travel - we have reusable water bottles - but since we often travel with only hand luggage, that is not always possible. Some places airport security will let you pass with a water bottle, but then suddenly another on the same trip will make you throw it away. So when we travel with hand luggage, we usually buy a bottle when we arrive, and refill during the trip.

I would love to receive more tips about what others do for water to avoid plastic bottles when they are travelling abroad. <br />On a recent excursion somewhere really hot you needed to drink constantly when out and about and I was thinking that it would be good for tourist shops / cafes to sell water from a large dispenser so you could re-fill your water holder without the need to buy a plastic bottle (if they were unwilling to dole out tap water).
