Gypsies, yes - I would like to tell you all about a bit of their history. Gypsies come form a part of India from North-West of the Indian Continent. They are not traditional Indian families, they don't of course belong to the family of Brahmans.. They used to be cheap robbers, beggars and of course nomads. Some of their instincts told them to go West. So they began, like more than five hundred years ago, their journey West. They set up towards Eastern Europe, In the late 40's of the last century, communist regime blocked their journey west, so they had to stay in Romania, Bulgaria and Hungary and Slovakia. After the borders were opened again, they tried to settle in Western Europe in countries like Spain, were they had formerly colonized, and Italy and France. The Protestant countries didn't accept them at all, but France and Italy started to pay planes for them to go back to Eastern Europe. So they have finally flied with aeroplanes. Let's enjoy some pictures of Romanian more or less traditional gypsies.. And PS: they were good investors putting almost all their money in GOLD reserves.
