Waiting to Be Discovered
The quiet wallflower of Europe, Moldova is shyly emerging from the shadow of its Soviet past as a contender for prime wine country and rich cultural experiences. Wedged between Romania and Ukraine, Moldovans are ethnically related to Romanians, but over time they have adopted a Slavic way of enjoying life, which shows up especially in the increasingly hip capital, Chisinau. Life moves at a slower pace in the countryside, where livestock wanders over the unpaved village streets and most meals come from bounteous backyard gardens.
