Moldova Travel Blogs

We were expecting to wander around Chisinau today, the capital of Moldova. While an old city, founded in 1436, it is very modern, having been completely flattened in 1940-1941 with the invasion of the Red Army (28th June 1940), who were then defeated after a long siege by the Nazis (17th Jul…

This blog will be continuously updated as long as I continue to travel the world and wake up needing to hang a dump.

I finally procure a train ticket to Kishinev from someone who knows what they are doing.  On the train I meet a man who is traveling home to Kishinev.  He invites me over to meet his family.  One floor of his house is still under construction and he boasts that he's building it …
