Journée internationale de l'enfant

📣 Conseils aux voyageurs

Moldova is a landlocked country situated between Romania and Ukraine. Key attractions include monasteries and wines, which can be explored via organized tours departing from the capital, Chișinău.

• Political discussions are highly polarizing; be mindful of sensitive topics.
• Avoid discussing the unification of Romania and Moldova in certain social circles.
• Topics such as the Transnistria conflict, Russia relations, and EU membership are politically sensitive.
• Be aware of regional and linguistic differences (e.g., Moldovan vs. Romanian identity).
• The political landscape is divided among pro-EU, pro-Russia, and neutral viewpoints.
• General discussions concerning national identity and political allegiance should be approached with caution.
• Be prepared for local curiosity. If approached by scammers, it is advised to ignore them or dismiss the behavior assertively. Women are highly respected; male friends often display traditional chivalry (e.g., paying bills, opening doors). In rural areas, women should avoid smoking or drinking alcohol.
