FWIW I've had great experiences in Romania - yes, there is a lot of very flat country in stretches (but no worse than cycling through long straight pine forested roads in southern France) but it's a really fascinating place - amazing mountains, incredible estuarine bits. Though, yes, lots of feral dogs running around in packs which can at times be a bit intimidating - especially when you see big mastiff-looking things standing rigid watching you cycle towards them. I wouldn't necessarily fancy camping there for the reason of dogs (but that's true of lots of neighbouring countries too), see also wolves and bears depending where you are - but B&Bs are cheap and fun. Also barbecue and Țuică ftw. Still got a couple of bottles from last trip - might have to break it out for Christmas in case the boiler goes.
