Dracula here I come!

OK - this is the start of my wild trip to Romania & Italy. I have been planning this trip for over 6 months and I leave in 2 days! I'm sure you're thinking, "why the hell are you going to Romania?" It all started last Halloween (2009) with a Jagermeister benefit in NYC! My friend Ali came in for Halloween and I was trying to figure out what the hell to do? As I was surfing the "information super highway," I came upon a contest to win 2 tickets to the Jagermeister Halloween Benefit at Amity Hall (partnering with the National Hemophilia Foundation). The benefit was also featuring a Halloween costume contest with a grand prize - a trip for 2 to Translyvania - ROMANIA! I won the passes to the event AND i won the costume contest!

So, I will be touring the Romanian countryside with my boyfriend of 8 1/2 years with our own private guide seeing Dracula's castles and the creepy world of vampires! Now, the idea of seeing Dracula and his allegiance of vampires would normally leave me shaking in my boots - especially if you've seen Keeanu Reeves in Brahm Stokers Dracula.
However, since True Blood , I'm hoping these vampires look more like Eric & Bill.... yummy!

Don't worry - I will come prepared to meet these devilish demons ... lotions, potions and some neck plugs too ! What did you think I would say - garlic, silver crucifixes and wooden stakes? C'mon... vampires are hot and sexy nowadays!
