I was borne 1979 in Caransebes, a small town in the south-westerns part of Romania. After four years we moved to Orsova. The city is situated next to the boundary of the former Yugoslavia. The Danube River is the natural boundary between Romania and Yugoslavia.      

One day my mother packed my bags and took me to my grandparents because she could not longer have a vigil eye on me while she worked. My grandparents are farmers so my last years in Romanian I tended sheep.
