Nepalis in Romania: life, work and study
Romania has become a destination for Nepali workers and students in recent years. Romanian is not widely known among newcomers, winters can be cold, and shared housing and long shifts are common.
Romania is in the European Union and changes its clocks in spring and autumn.
Romania has public hospitals and private clinics, and private care is common for people who can pay for it. Many Nepali workers live in and around Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca and other large cities, sometimes with irregular delivery or construction hours. Tell us your rota and we will look for a workable slot.
