Welcome! Bine ati venit!
The idea behind the conception of this blog and the CaliRomania discussion board is simple: many of us Romanians, or Romanian-Americans, here in Southern California find it difficult to connect with other like-minded Romanians for friendship, fun, and exchange whether trivial or important information with our peers. Most social outlets for Romanians here are religious communities which may, or may not be viewed as inviting places of worship and social events. Some of us have lived in the U.S. for so long, we are no longer confident in our Romanian linguistic skills while others may wish to re-connect to the mother-tongue and communicate primarily in Romanian. Keeping in mind that Romanians are a true minority among minorities and that we are hardly ever publicly validated as a community among other ethnic communities, it is also true that few attempts are made to create opportunities for Romanians and Romanian-Americans to meet without a religious, political, or economic motive. This blog and forum is free - and will remain free. It has been created in the interest of friendship and discourse. Looking forward to your participation.

If you would like to moderate your own board and have a topic in mind, please comment/respond to this blog and you will be contacted shortly.
Sanatate,
Elvis
