I was staying in Costinesti at "Forum" Hotel.
I always have my backpack (ICOM LC156) with me with some stuff ready to operate in HF bands.
I made a few interesting contacts: Albania, Andorra, Thailand etc with only 5 W from IC 703 with a very short antenna (military folded vertical) and with a small SLA battery (12 V, 7 Ah and a 2.2 Ah backup).
From the hotel, in the early mornings, I used a fishpole stick with a wire hanging, tuned witj ICOM AH4 ATU.
Yes, QRP is (still) possible but you have to be very patient.
What I found is that without internet is very hard to be copied! Not to many hams are searching through the band trying to listen to weak signals. Almost all my QSO's were made after someone post me on DX Cluster.
A very pleasant QSO was the one with Lutz, DL3SEZ. He was on Mount Michael with a IC 7000 and a home made fan-dipole and we were at the third QSO. The first was in 2007, the second in 2011 and now was the third. It was like meeting a old friend!
I cannot say with full confidence if the internet will be the future for the hamradio but I can tell you that this kind of QSO will always make me to turn on the radio again and again!
