Where is Moldova

Map of Moldova

Moldova is situated between Romania and Ukraine.

I found getting to Moldova from the UK quite hard at first. For a start there is no direct flights from London so you have to go via another destination. I flew to Istanbul and stayed over night. Before getting my connecting flight in the morning.

Last visit to Chisinau: Dec 2000
