no smoking unless you want to

So we're here, stomping the streets of Chisinau, trying to make a difference in the former Soviet Republic. And I think we're slowly carving out a little niche for ourselves. We've become regulars at a little Greek restaurant called "Opa." The food's great and relatively cheap, the service is sub-par, but all in all it's a great place to sit down next to a "No Smoking" sign, light up, and eat a gyro.

Saving up your money for a rainy day...

I've been in Chisinau for a week now - actually I got here last Thursday morning at 1:30 am, so almost one week. I figured I might as well start a blog of my own while I'm here. The video really lets you know what that experience was like, arriving for the first time after a relatively challenging experience in Bucharest.
