EARLY DAYS
Shortly after taking up rowing in 2007, she considered quitting the sport due to homesickness. She struggled after leaving her hometown of Gramesti, Romania, to receive training, but her father Eugen convinced her to continue in the sport. "The training was easy at first, but for me it was a problem with missing home. After two weeks I wanted to leave and didn't want to stay there anymore." (monitorulsv.ro, 20 Dec 2017)
