Hello from Stauceni, a commune of 10,000 people on the outskirts of Chisinau. Stauceni is the type of community that gives lots of evidence of an emerging middle class here in Moldova. The houses are in good condition, many of them are new construction. There is a beuatiful new primary school and a tall modern apartment building. Yet the village life continues as in the past with large gardens at every house. People actually buy very little food at the grocery store. 99% of the food I have had this first week has all been home made and delicious. Lots of soup and salad and delicious sauces. You can see that free range chickens are also popular here. There is also the village Orthodox church with its shining domes against the blue skies. Life in the commune of Stauceni is good.
