JUBRIQUE, ABOLONGO FESTIVAL

As a Romanian woman living abroad, the milestone I achieved by publishing this book here, in Spain, and also by managing to be invited to be part of a festival like Abolongo implies not only professional achievements but also a deep and profound gratitude for being received here, in Spain, not as a foreigner but as a part of the community.
Many, many thanks, Carolina. Chapeau bas for making this possible! Thanks, @abolongo_fest !
As always, I was super proud to cover my body and heart with Romanian brands:  @lali.wear @atelier_devi @zeaetsia @dianacojocaru @delicatelace.ro
Publishing house: @apuleyoeditorial

Como rumana residente en el extranjero, el logro que he alcanzado al publicar este libro aquí, en España, y también al ser invitada a un festival como Abolongo implica no solo logros profesionales, sino también una profunda gratitud por ser recibida aquí, en España, no como extranjera, sino como parte de la comunidad.
Muchísimas gracias, Carolina. ¡Chapeau bas por hacerlo posible! Gracias, Abolongo.
Como siempre, me sentí muy orgullosa de cubrir mi cuerpo y mi corazón con marcas rumanas.

GENALGUACIL

I am grateful and proud of the chance I had in the summer of 2025 to read my book in our small village and community, @genalguacil_pueblo_museo , during the Mercado de Verano organised by @genial_genal . Thank you for the invitation and for the trust!
PS1: My book, beautifully and handmade illustrated by @lilfeli and published by @apuleyoeditorial , will arrive in Taiwan since an amazing Taiwanese artist just bought it today. My heart is full.
PS2: of course, proudly wearing Romanian brands @vilegiatura “Dans lent” earrings and @sekana_brand dress! 🤎

The "Women of the Valley" workshop series

The "Women of the Valley" workshop series is about longing for the sun, figuratively and literally, seeking clarity, warmth, and growth, no matter the season of life, regardless of the age; it's about creativity, connection, and purpose.

This is not just a project. It’s the beginning of a movement, one that started in the small but artsy and wonderful village of Genalguacil, in 2024, and has the power to reach other rural communities, one gathering at a time.

Bucharest, Romania

It's all about creating an authentic community among female entrepreneurs running small enterprises who are struggling to grow and leave a legacy through their entrepreneurial endeavours.

And it's not just about conducting business but also doing  it responsibly and ethically. These gatherings seek to connect local enterprises and encourage our local entrepreneurs to grow and develop.

Following every edition of Connecting Women Entrepreneurs, they gather, get to know one another, discuss, and do business together.

The Connecting Women Entrepreneurs events are based on mellow vibes, no pressure (since we already have an overabundance of that), no rigid guidelines, just women gathering to share their personal experiences, strengths, and vulnerabilities, and discovering methods to create top-notch initiatives together.

And the finest is yet to come, since I am currently working on establishing an international network of female entrepreneurs running small and medium-sized businesses.

CWE Partners: Finding the perfect location for this event was difficult, but I was lucky to meet Oana Nicolae, Velocita America House Franchise Partner ; we both support women's businesses and were looking to create the ideal atmosphere in a perfect place.

Thank you for your support. Ioana Buru / Desene cu lumina
