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.
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.
