What challenges do you see for Romanian villages?

Multiple challenges. I will focus on those in my field, tourism. There are many villages in Romania with tourism potential (natural, cultural, etc.). Unfortunately, many times the local population is not trained to offer complete tourism experiences, either because of vision, or due to lack of technological skills or knowledge of foreign languages.
