📣 Traveler notes

Moldova is a small, landlocked country situated between Romania and Ukraine. It is a destination that offers unique experiences, particularly winery and monastery tours, originating from the capital, Chișinău.

  • Handle political discussions cautiously, as the discourse is highly polarized.
  • Avoid initiating conversations regarding the reunification of Romania and Moldova, or the Transnistria conflict.
  • Approach discussions concerning Moldova's relationship with Russia or potential EU membership with sensitivity, especially in Gagauzia and Transnistria.
  • Be aware that identity (Moldovan vs. Romanian) and language can be polarizing topics.
