I arrived in Memphis on Monday, July 7th. It was so good to see my parents, aunt, and cousin at the airport. My cousin handed me a box of fudge rounds. OH..I WAS SO EXCITED. SO, I ate a fudge round on the way home. For my first dinner at home, I had a greasy cheeseburger, sweet heat chips, and large coke from Top's BBQ in Memphis. It was so good!!
I am enjoying time with my family, especially my niece, Montanah. I have been to Walmart a couple of times now. It wasn't as weird as I thought it would be. It seems really empty. I wonder where all the people are!!! I started a new workout routine this week. I am also cooking for mom and I. I have also been driving! It had been 11 months since I had been to Walmart or driven a car.
Last week was spent in Romania with a missions team from my home church. We had a wonderful time in Romania. I hope to tell stories and post pictures soon.
Anyways, It is good to be home!
Stay tuned for pictures.
Experiencing Life After Moldova

About Me
- 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.
