Visiting Etiquette
In general, Romanians love visiting one another at their houses. For socializing on a more casual basis and for special occasions like holidays, birthdays, and anniversaries, people may come together. Typically, visits are scheduled in advance.
No one expects visitors to their home to bring food or beverages. Most Romanians like entertaining guests and showcasing their culinary talents. They could even become irritated if a visitor brings their own meals. In a similar vein, Romanians want visitors to fully accommodate them in return. Before entering someone's house, take off your shoes.
Refreshments of some form, such as tea, coffee, brandy, or wine, are typically provided by hosts. On casual visits, it's customary to receive an alcohol offer. Your counterpart is probably going to understand if you can't drink, even if they could suggest that you taste a Romanian beverage. You must not bring any extra guests who weren't invited.
Even if they don't have enough food, your Romanian colleague could feel obligated to accommodate them. If guests want to smoke, they should inform the hosts beforehand. Inconsiderate behavior is frowned upon in a person's home.
