Where is Moldova, anyway?

Musings on my Peace Corps experience in this small, Eastern European, Republic.
 

The Mighty $

The value of the dollar might be falling these days, but the "umph" factor isn't... I found an American dollar tucked into a bunch of papers in my drawer. It just felt so big- and unnecessarily so - very American. :) I think it might be weird going back to "big money"... Although I remember when I first got to Moldova, I thought their money was so small it was like "monopoly money." Time definitely changes perspective, if not everything.

US 1 Dollar and Moldova 1 Lei
