RIP MOLDOVA
https://noi.md/md/societate/ansa-comenteaza-preturile-mari-pentru-cartofi
I've spent much time in Russia, Ukraine...and many other countries of the world. My languages: English, French, Russian...but I'm losing the Russian..."If You Don't Use It You Lose It"!
I'm looking forward to seeing Moldova - and Romania too (where I have some family relatives).
Are you aware Moldova has villages without running water, permanent electricity or even half decent roads...
