Why are western people afraid of xPRimenting eastern culture?
It is a question we are planning to answer using a slightly different approach. Sibiu was only promoted for being the Cultural Capital of Europe in 2007, but that is not everything that a tourist might want to know. Therefore we use the audience development method to find all the interests that are directed to our city and try to solve these problems.
In this project you will find information about museums, gastronomy, sports, history and anything you might be looking for when visiting a new city. We have tried to cover all aspects that are usually left behind.

Team Collaboration
Cristina wants to study architecture and is very passionate defending the importance of museums in our modern society, so we decided to let her do the researching about buildings and monuments.
Andra, on the other hand, likes to travel and to know people from different cultures, so that she seemed the perfect one to write about the multiculturalism and traditions from Sibiu.
Andrei is a very creative person and likes to be always aware of what's going on in the city, therefore we have decided that he is the most appropriate one to write about out- and indoor activities.
Team Diversity
Although the students have the same background (religion and nationality), their personalities are very different, but still complementary. They have had long talks about the project and decided to put their strenghts together and elaborate a plan to develop our local tourism, because it is a cause they all believe in.
