About

Things Worth Knowing is a personal project. A Romanian living in Ireland, building a small corner of the internet for practical knowledge that school never taught and life usually teaches too late.

The site covers three things for now: cooking good food from scratch, understanding basic manners and social etiquette, and looking after your body with simple training habits. All three share the same idea: small consistent effort, done correctly, pays off disproportionately over time.

The etiquette section is not about silverware or dress codes for events you will never attend. It is about the small things that make other people feel comfortable around you: showing up on time, listening properly, not humiliating people, keeping your word. These are dying skills and they should not be.

The training section is not about aesthetics or optimisation. It is about building a body that works: carries shopping, plays with kids, and is still functional at seventy. Short movement breaks during the day and a simple programme a few times a week are enough to get most people most of the way there.

The cooking section is the original reason this site exists. Simple recipes, clear steps, no unnecessary flourish.

More is coming. Slowly, and only when it is worth publishing.
