Dear tango addicts from all over the world,

TTF6 takes place in Brasov (http://wikitravel.org/en/Brașov) – the center of the country, at the foothills of the Carpathians, close to Dracula’s Castle! Your summer vacation should also include the great adventure of mixing tango, mountains and… blood-rushing history (http://www.bran-castle.com/en/) :)
