My name is Marian and I’m Estonian. I like to ask questions and tell stories. I was that kid sitting in the front row with my hand up high at school.
Since moving to Moldova many years ago, I was blown away by how many untold stories there were here.
The stories I typically found from the foreign press always told the same boring story of how Moldova is corrupt, poor and, by the way, the Russians are coming.
There is so much more hiding here, I thought to myself. My dear friend Tiina visited me here and had the same thought. That’s where the idea for telling stories from Moldova came from.
(that's me and Tiina on the photo)
We have been doing that for nearly a year now. It’s been an adventure!
We’ve been to more places here than many of the locals.
We almost broke my car. Sometimes we couldn’t reach people just because of bad roads. We have knocked on random doors. We have been offered fruit, berries, pancakes, soup, pies. And of course, endless amounts of cups of coffee! Actual coffee, I mean.
If you would also like to support us, a virtual cup of coffee would be the best. We highly appreciate and cheer for every sign of support. It makes us smile and gives us motivation to continue.
Thank you, and have the most chirpy-chirpy day!
With love,
Marian
