Abingdon, located in northeastern Harford County, Maryland, USA, about 30 minutes from Baltimore, is a typical suburban town. Rich in history, it was an important trading post in the 18th century and still retains colonial architecture, such as the stone streets and historic churches of Abingdon's Old Town. A convenient satellite town, Abingdon's proximity to Interstate I-95 provides residents with easy access to Baltimore, Washington, D.C., and Philadelphia. The local economy is dominated by small and medium-sized businesses, and the educational system and friendly neighborhoods attract families looking for a quieter life. In addition, the neighborhood's rich natural beauty and proximity to recreational destinations such as Gunpowder Rock State Park make it an ideal choice for combining urban convenience with natural livability.
Bucharest, the capital and largest city of Romania, is located in the middle of the Danube River Plain in the southeast of the country and is a political, economic and cultural center. The historic city is a blend of Orthodox, Byzantine and French flavors, and was once known as "Little Paris". The old town has preserved medieval buildings and Orthodox churches, while the iconic Palace of the Parliament (now the Palais des Congrès), the world's second-largest administrative building, is an imposing sight. As the economic hub of Romania, Bucharest has a vibrant and diverse mix of industrial, technological and service companies, as well as universities and cultural institutions.
