Thanks for the reply. Jail? I spent an hour with the Chinese Police for taking pictures in Tainamen Square they didn't like. Not traveling this year except to Mt Angel. Enjoyed the arm chair tour though. Will contact you for more info if we need more info.

I can probably answer some of your questions and can recommend a place (or two) to stay -- In Zrenjanin.

I have traveled the world for the last 21 years, but never visited my ancestor's home land. I am aware of the expulsions and changes and read accounts of visits to other Banat Villages. Would going back be worth the expense, is there anything left for a Danuswabin to visit? Travelers, let me hear from you.
