Hello, my name is Ana-Maria and I’m an 18-year-old (my 19th birthday is in a few days: 29 June) housewife from Tulcea county, Romania. I have a 2 month old son. I’m an Eastern Orthodox Christian. I spend my time serving God, my husband, in-laws and taking care of my son. Some fun facts about me: I fast every Monday, Wednesday and Friday (besides the big fasts of the year such as Great Lent and Nativity Fast). I wear a headscarf most of the day and at all times in public (known here as “batic”). I never worn pants. I go to church as often as possible (always on Sunday). I abstain from voting. I only went to school up to 8th grade; I was taught at home / church & self-taught after that. My hobbies include baking, knitting, sewing, reading, cooking, gardening, listening to music and painting (especially icons, I’m not sure that’s the exact translation in English but here they’re called “icoane” and are Christian paintings basically). I also volunteer with the church whenever I have time. This area where I live in (Dobruja) is very special for Christianity, for example the Saint Andrew’s Cave (a cave where Andrew the Apostle supposedly preached) is here, the first Christian church in Romania. Saint Andrew is also the patron saint of Romania and the Romanian Orthodox Church. Nice to meet you, all!
