Jewish family from Sighet, Maramures, Romania, around 1920
Sighet was once one of the most Jewish of all places in Europe. Before WWII more than a third of the city was Jewish, and many Jews worked the land as peasant farmers in the surrounding countryside. The culture of Maramures, and of Sighet in particular, resonates with the influence of Yiddish in the local dialect, the local food, and the music.

Man from Maramureş, village of Onceşti, one hundred years ago. All over Maramureş, from the past to this day one can see extraordinary carved entry gates on homesteads made by local artisans that have over time become the symbol of the region.

A Jewish dance tune from Maramures, Romania, played on a tsimbl (cymbalom, a type of wooden dulcimer).
Originating from sixteenth century Hungary, the instrument became all over Eastern Europe an essential component of the klezmer band. The (singular) Hungarian word cimbalom and the Yiddish tsimbl became the plural forms cymbaly in Polish, tsymbaly in Ukrainian and Belorussian, and tambal in Romanian. The old Romanian word tambelar for a performer derives directly from Yiddish. Likewise, the appearance of the tambal mic (little cymbal) in Roma tarafs (ensembles) was a reflection of a Jewish klezmer presence in the early to mid-nineteenth century. The tsimbl is still regarded as a Jewish instrument in Poland, and as a Jewish-derived home instrument among the former Polish gentry of Belarus. The association of Jews with the instrument is found even as far west as Holland and Ireland.

•Happy Easter guys! 🐣 At the beginning of march, we went in the north to see this amazing mountain called "Pietrosul Rodnei(The Rodna Mountains)", which has a 2303m (7,556 feet) elevation. This "little guy" is the highest peak in all of the Eastern Carpathians. The Rodna Mountains have one of the longest continuous ridges in Romania, with over 50 km (31 mi) from west to east and a width of over 25 km (16 mi). While the ridge itself poses no difficulties, the challenge is the massive length of it, and the absence of drinkable water (except for a few puddles that are usually dry).
•Wherever you are in life, I hope you’re experiencing joy, taking it easy on yourself, and finding peace through the turbulence. You deserve it. - @wetheurban
