It, is landlocked between Romania and Ukraine. It was carved out from Romania in 1940. It was also part of defunct USSR. Officially, it is known as the Republic of Moldova. It has boundary with Ukraine to the north, south and west and Romania to the west. It gained independence in 1991 following the collapse of the Soviet Union, however its current constitution was established in 1994. Having gained independence, this state developed a parliamentary republic system of government in which the prime minister is the head of government and the president is considered the head of state.

It is not too large. According to 2014 population estimation, it was home to 2,913,281 people excluding the population of the breakaway territory of Transnistria. But this population estimation showed that the population decreased from what it was in the 2004 census. Its population during the census was 3,383,332. She spans 33,846km with 1.4% of the total area being covered with water. It has a population density of 105/km2.

The capital city is Chisinau. It serves as the administrative one too and it is the largest settlement. Chisinau is a very nice place with plenty of things to offer residents and tourists. However, there are other beautiful cities there which are worth visiting such as Balti, Soroca, Tiraspol and Ungheni. The official language is Romanian. However, most people living there are able to speak Russian. Other recognized regional languages are Ukrainian, Bulgarian and Gagauz. The existence of other language groups in Macedonia points to the fact that she is a multi-ethnic and cultural society. Orthodoxy remains the major religion.

It is rich in sedimentary rocks and minerals such as gravel, sand, limestone and gypsum. The major natural disaster is soil erosion which results normally from the use of poor methods of farming. It also experiences earth tremor as a result of its position. There are four types of seasons of the year. The summer is warm with some months being hot. During the winter, there snow falls and it can also be cold. The autumns and springs are also mild.

It was initially an agricultural society. This is why it was dubbed "the garden" of the Soviet Union. However, following her independence and the dissolution of the Soviet Union, agricultural activities as well as industrial activities are gradually declining. Its traditional Russian market is gradually collapsing with a more international market being developed. The service sector has developed to become the major economic one. It is now contributing more than 60% of the GDP. Despite the improvement witnessed in the service sector, it still remains the poorest area.

It has become a member of a number of international organizations. It is a member of the United Nations (UN), World Trade Organisation (WTO), Council of Europe, Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), GUAM Organisation for Democracy and Economic Development, and the Organisation of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC).

Although it is the poorest, there is still a small Expat community here. Most of the expats live in Chisinau. Expats will be able to enjoy standard living thanks to the low cost of living. With small amount of money, you will be able to eat sumptuous meal in any luxury restaurant.

Living in Moldova

Generally, it is cheap to live here. However, expats living here will encounter some challenges. The major challenge that they can meet is communication. The official language, as mentioned above, is Romanian but Russian is widely spoken too. So, the expats living among the locals who are not able to speak these languages will definitely find it difficult to communicate and socialise with them. There are not many job opportunities. So, expats planning for a permanent relocation are advised to ensure that they have secured a job before they can to move here otherwise they will have hard times finding a job. Housing is not as expensive as it is in the Great Britain. But the major challenge is that quality housing is available in limited supply. The available ones are expensive.

It is safe and secure to live in. After the civil war, it became politically stable. It does not experience natural disasters. The major crimes committed there are petty theft and ATM fraud. However, owing to organised terrorist attacks by some terrorist groups in the Arab world, UK nationals are advised to be very careful and conscious of their security. You should mind where you go and who you go out with. Expats are also advised not to be alone in a dark place and they should also watch over their valuables.

If you are planning to stay it longer, you should ensure that you purchase comprehensive health insurance policy and not to rely entirely on the public funded healthcare insurance. This is because the standard of healthcare is yet to achieve parity with the standard of healthcare provided in the UK. In the capital, one will be able to find doctors that can speak English. However, if you are living in the rural areas, it will be difficult to find doctors that can speak English.

As you are planning to travel here, it is advisable that you go with enough medications that will last for months for you especially if you are on routine drug. This is because medications many are difficult to come by.
If you have children, this state may not be the right location for you because of the language of instruction which is Romania or Russian. However, there are international schools located in Chisinau. They are available in limited numbers as well. But English is taught in the public school as a second language. Many foreigners also find the education system very complex. There are three different kinds of secondary school to choose from. On a positive side, it offers free education to schoolchildren until they turn 16 years of age. Many expats resort to sending their children to schools in other countries with better education system or in the international school in Chisinau, namely, QSI International School of Chisinau. The school is normally filled up owing to the number of applicants they have. Some expats also send their children to boarding schools in their home lands.

There are 31 institutions of higher learning there. A greater percentage of these institutions of higher learning are located in Chisinau and Balti. Some of the popular schools are State University, the Nicolae Testemitanu State University of Medicine and Pharmacy, the Academy of Economic Studies and the Alecu Russo State University.

Within the last decade, this land has made some significant investment for the development of transport infrastructure. With the investment made here, the transportation infrastructure is quite improving. Out of 12,730 km of roads, 10,937 are tarred or paved. The roads in the rural areas are of low standard. It can be very dangerous to travel on them especially if you are not used to rugged driving. If you are traveling to a long distance, it is advisable that you make use of the public transportation system.

If you are here with your car, you can drive legitimately if you have an international driver's license. But in case you want a local driver's license, you should apply for it at Registru which is the state information centre responsible for it.

There are also 1232km of railways as a part of its public transportation system. Calea Ferata is the company managing and operating the railway network system. She is linked to Romania and Russia via the railway network links. There are also bus networks in big cities. There are both international and local airports for residents that want to take flight to their various destinations.

There are other sectors that also contribute significantly to the economy. 20% of the total GDP is contributed by the industrial sector while the agricultural sector contributes 15% of the total GDP. The major exports are obtained from the agricultural produce. Some of the major agricultural exports are wheat, tobacco, beets, sugar, soybeans and wine. Agriculture remains a major employer of labour.

Real estate in Moldova

As already mentioned above, houses available here do not have the same quality as houses available in some other countries. There are good houses but they are in limited supply and they available ones are costly owing to demands. But their cost is nowhere near the cost of similar accommodation in other expensive destinations such as France, Belgium and others. Most expats are able to pay for expensive housing as they are normally employed as management and technical staffs with high salary.

The cost of apartments differs from location to location. Some locations are more expensive to purchase properties or rent apartments than others. Expensive apartments are normally located in the centre. Apartments on the outskirts are normally more affordable than the ones in the centres. So, if you are planning on living in the centre, you should have a higher budget than a person planning to live on the outskirts. According to Nuembo.com which is a website that provides information on the living cost of various countries and cities across the globe, a one bedroom apartment in the outside of the centre can be rented between 2,466,66MDL and 3,500.00MDL while a one bedroom apartment in the centre can be rented between 4,000.00MDL and 5,500.00MDL.

What makes the difference in the renting price of accommodations in similar location are the facilities and fixtures provided in the accommodation. Some accommodations have more features and fixtures than the others. If you are living in apartment that has garden and parking or outdoor space, definitely you will pay higher than a person living in the same area with you whose apartment does not have these features. In similar manner, accommodations that are furnished or that have more expensive and luxury fixtures are normally rented at higher prices than accommodations that are not furnished or that do not have expensive fixtures. So, it is advisable that you find out what fixtures and features that are available in any apartment that you want to purchase or rent so that you will be able to determine whether it is given to you at a good rate or not.

Airports and flights

There are both domestic and international airports but these airports differ in their popularity. The most popular one is Chisinau Airport which is the main international airport. There are other international airports but they are not as popular and as busy as the Chisinau International Airport which has remained the sole international gateway. There are also Balti International, Cahul International  and Marculesti International Airports. The first one is certified and has flights on occasional basis. The second is not certified while the third is certified for daylight flights. Besides these, there are also domestic airports. Some of these are not yet operational while some are yet to be certified.

There are a number of airlines that fly to the international airports, especially the Chisinau one. Wizz Air, Aeroflot, S7 Airline, Turkish Airlines and others are some of them. Most of the major cities in the UK have such airports. The distance from each airport is different. So, the cost of flights depends on the airport of departure and airport of landing which is mainly Chisinau. If your flight takes off from London to Chisinau, you will not pay the same amount with another person whose flight takes off from Edinburgh to Chisinau because they do not have the same flight distance and flight time.

Another factor that will affect your flight cost is demand. In accordance with the law of supply and demands, the flight ticket is normally higher in periods when there are more demands than in periods when the demands are low. The summer and holidays are normally the peak periods when a lot of people travel for holidays and some also move to other locations. If you schedule your move during the holiday period, you are much likely going to spend more on your flight ticket than another person that travels when the demands are lower. Demands are also higher in some days and hours of the week. So, if you schedule your flight during these periods when demands are higher. you will also pay more than another person that flies during the day when the demand is low.

Most airlines give discounts to certain people based on their status in life. When you are booking your flight ticket, find out if there are discounts and whether you qualify for any of the available discounts. Normally, children, seniors, veterans and students are given discounts by most airlines. Another factor that may determine your flight cost is the time you purchase your flight ticket. Last minute flight tickets are normally more expensive than tickets purchase early or in advance. Most airlines give discounts to people that purchase their tickets in advance. So, if you want to cut cost on your flight ticket, purchase your ticket in advance.

As already mentioned, there are different airlines flying between the two countries. But these airlines do not charge the same amount of money for their flight ticket. Some airlines are more affordable to use than others. At most times, the difference lies in the facilities provided on-board. Some airlines operate planes that have luxury facilities. Some airlines also provide added services such as meals and others. These factors can make an airline to charge more than the others. The quality of offer provided can also affect the cost of flight charged by an airline. But it does not necessarily mean that an airline that has higher flight ticket is better than others. You need to shop around and ask people before you make a choice.

Most airlines have categories of seats. Economy seats are cheaper than VIP. If you fly VIP and first class seat, you will spend more than a person that flies economy seat. So, if you want to cut cost on your flight ticket, you should also consider taking economy seat.

If you are taking off from London, you will be able to get a direct flight here. According to skyscanner.com, as of last month, there were three airlines that provided direct flight from London to Chisinau. You can also get connection flights.

Reasons to move to Moldova from the UK

Usually, no expat will relocate to a place with a higher unemployment rate and lower healthcare facilities as well as lower standard of living than what are obtainable in his or her home land. Given the high rate of unemployment, it will ordinarily be the last location an expat will think of moving to. However, all about this place is not on the negative side. There is one or two reasons why living here either as an expat or a retiree will still appeal to you. If you did not decide whether to move here or not, you need to take these aspects that will be given below into consideration.

Affordable living

The cost of living in this state is very low. In fact, many people regard it as the most affordable place. Agriculture is one of the mainstays in terms of economy. Freshly produced foods are sold at a very affordable price. With $5, you will be able to eat a well prepared food. Expats sometimes feel guilty when they see the quantity and quality of foods they can afford here and what the locals can afford. So, with your savings, you will be able to get standard and quality living. Besides foods, other things such as transports, wine and housing are more affordable than in the UK. Chisinau is 77% cheaper than London. It is 81% cheaper to live in Moldovan capital city than to live in Zurich. So, if you live here, you are much likely going to make more savings than your counterparts living in other countries.

Better salaried posts Job opportunities are quite low or even scarce. However, management and technical posts are normally reserved for expats. So, if you are lucky to get employment, it is much likely that you will get to the top of your career more easily than your mate working in the UK and other developed country with lots of skilled labour force. Such management vacancies are not plentifully available and the available ones are occupied by people with special talents. So, a move to this land is an opportunity to be a decision maker in your business and to manage others. If you succeed in getting such offer, at the end of the year, you will be able to make more savings than your counterpart somewhere else.

Great weather

It is a popular holiday destination of holidaymakers and tourists thanks to its impressive weather condition during the summer weather. The weather during the summer time is simply great. There is plenty of sunshine for outdoor enthusiasts. If you are living here, you will fall in love with it during the summer period or warm period. Apart from the snowy winter, the spring and autumn are also moderate.

Warm, charming and friendly locals The disposition of people around determines the extent you will arrive at your sociability. You need the friendship of the others in order to arrive at your sociability which is an aspect of you that is natural to you. The locals are well disposed towards their neighbours and foreigners in their midst. They are charming, warming, hospitable, polite and friendly. With all these qualities of the local, you will feel at home when you are living there. If you are able to make friends with them, be ready to get invitations for dinner and free coffees from your friends. Moldovans normally insist that their guests drink with them. It is considered a social bond to do so. It is also acceptable societal value to drink with friends and acquaintance. If you are not used to drinking, you need to politely tell your host that you don't drink alcohol. Don't shift on your ground but politely maintain that and stand on that. If you are interested in beautiful women, there is no doubt that you will fall in love with this land because it has plenty of beautiful women. It is good to point that this experience may be subjective because some expats have accused the Moldovans of being cold and ill-disposed towards the others. Just as you are going here, be open-minded so that you will have your own experience of the people.  

Great cuisine and wine

The culinary tradition as well as awesome wine are another aspect that many expats like. Gourmets and wine connoisseurs are definitely going to fall in love with this place. Some of the local dishes are very tasty. Some of the dishes that you should try to taste during your stay are Mamaliga, Coltunas, Sarma, Branza and Placinte. There are other nice local dishes to sample. They are prepared with rich ingredients and they are tasty. Good a thing, it is highly affordable to dine out.

It has plenty of vineyards and wineries where you will be able to sample freshly produced wines. Vegetarians will also be satisfied with the cuisine. It boasts of large production of vegetables and fruits such as plums, tomatoes, cherries, cucumbers and bell peppers.

Safe and secure

Another reason why living here will appeal to you is that it is secure to live in. It has enjoyed a relatively stable democracy since after her civil war. There aren't cases of violence or terrorists attack. Apart from petty theft such as pickpocket and the likes, there isn't much problem. Given the level of security and safety enjoyed by the residents, it is a nice location to raise children. The major challenges expats with children have about raising them is education, because the language of instruction is Romanian or Russian.

Western lifestyle

Expats will find settling down easy. They will not be exposed to grave culture shock. This is because the lifestyle here is a mix of the lifestyle of the EU and the Russian/Soviet Lifestyle. With the influence of western lifestyle, you will find a lot of things to be strange here. Besides, socialising and communicating with locals will not pose much challenge to expats from the English speaking world. Even though Romanian remains the official language, a good number of the locals are able to speak English language. Besides, the English language is taught in the schools as a secondary language. With the number of people who are able to speak the language, communication and socializing will not be as difficult as it seems to.

Impressive nightlife

There is an impressive nightlife culture. If you are a fun seekers, there are a lot of choices of nightlife venues, bars, clubs and entertainment venues to choose from. However, you should be wary of your safety. It is not advisable to be out in a dark place alone. If you are going out for a drink, always be in the company of other peoples. It is safer to go out in groups than to go out alone. 

Good internet access

When it comes to access to internet, she is no lagger. Her residents have access to high speed wired internet. A good number of places have free public Wi-Fi. Everywhere has access to cell phone services. Besides, there are a number of providers to choose from.

Entry into Transnistria

The internal boundary between Transnistria and Moldova has no immigration controls as such and no entry stamps will be placed into your passports.
