Well, I am back from Colorado. It was AMAZING! I was able to visit with family and friends in Colorado Springs. It was great to spend time touring the sites and catching up with the family. My friend Annie went along with me on the plane ride and stayed with me in CO. It was wonderful to have this whole experience with her. It was a short but sweet trip with many blessings. I will share stories with anyone who wants to know them, but I don't really care to type them here. They are really better in person anyways. I just wanted everyone to know that I had a fun and safe trip. I'll be heading home on Saturday...tomorrow!So, pray for safe travels. I'm off to pack!
Maybe I'll see you soon!

- Shauna C
- I spent nearly a year in Moldova home schooling American kids. I learned a ton! I am so thankful for the opportunity to live in and experience life in a different culture. I highly recommend it.

Information about Moldova
Moldova, an ancient land of castles, was frequently controlled by invading forces throughout its long history, including those from Hungary, Poland, and the Turkish Ottoman Empire. After a long association with Romania, it was absorbed into the former Soviet Union (USSR) during World War II. It then gained its independence from Russia in 1991, to become an independent, neutral state. Famed for sparkling wine production, at one time it supplied Russia with over 300 million bottles of wine annually. Still suffering from the impact of the former Communist system, its future now rests on the fertile land, as it's ideally suited for a variety of agricultural industries.
