Valeriu Nicolae is a diplomat and NGO worker, who describes himself as a strategic survivor. Back when he was a child he was spurned by other Romanian children because he's Roma. He came up with an ingenious way to win them over, involving funerals and ice cream. The skills he developed to overcome discrimination have helped him in later life, and he's never looked back.
