Abstract
Between 1710-1810, we identified travel reports from a total number of 171 travelers who visited or traversed the Romanian Principalities. Out of these reports, four of them are written by women, who turned out to be a more sensible and attentive observer. In this study, we highlight the way in which they’ve seen the Romanian world. The letters they sent home to family members or friends are important sources on the image of society and the towns of the Romanian Principalities in the 18th century. Coming from the West, accustomed to a certain standard of living, the fine ladies perceived as being a big difference between their world and the one encountered in the East.
