Top ten places – May 21st->30th.
From May 21st to May 30th I’ve travelled from Iași to Kiev crossing also Moldova and the peculiar Trasnistria. Here is the ranking of the top ten things I liked the most, as usually in reverse order.

Having a small parrot as a pet is not so strange but having a big one and bringing it out as you would do with a dog is something I’ve never seen

Orheiul Vechi, likely the most important sight in Moldova but yet with many areas incredibly peaceful

The magnificient Saint Sofia Cathedral. Great from outside, incredible inside but unfortunaly pictures are not allowed

I’ve never seen a Hedgehog in reality this one was the first as he was just crossing the street in front of me

Transnistria is famous to be one of the last Communist Country but more than in its capital Tiraspol I think this is visible in the nearby Bender

By chance I enter in Saint Michael Monastery and I came into this pious moment. In the article there is also the audio of chants

Privoz Bazaar is huge and happy. It reminded me of the Green Market in Alma Aty but this one is much bigger

Potëmkin stairs for my generation in Italy are legendary so I cannot keep it out of the podium

The best Tourist Information Office of my life. So enthusiastic and involving descriptions that you could even skip the real visit 🙂

Being in an Orthodox Monastery and not understanding what is happening and nevertheless going away with pastries and eggs and a bit drunk
