About me


Hi! My name is Teofil, and I work as a tour guide, travel designer, and travel consultant.

During the last 20 years, I have guided people from 50 countries on 7 continents.

I specialize in multi-day tours for genuinely small groups.

I have a master’s degree in tourism, but I am a former journalist. I still research and write a little (articles, papers, and even books) when I find time to do it.

I am passionate about history, nature, traditional life, and ethnic minorities.

My base is in Maramureș (Northern Transylvania), where I live with my family.

I simply love my country, and I feel delighted to help you discover it!
