POTD 50: Criuleni

What better place to start reflecting on my time in Moldova than with Criuleni, my site for the past two years. When driving to Criuleni, you can’t miss the sign for it. Criuleni has been the perfect match for me. It’s a raion (which is a town that acts as the center for the small villages around it), so it’s had all my necessities available. But it’s really small for a raion, so I don’t get lost in city life. It’s right on the Nistru River, and I’ve loved taking walks because of its beauty. It’s been a great place to call home for two years.
