💨 Abstract
The article discusses Transnistria, a breakaway republic of Moldova, which is an unusual, unrecognized destination attracting adventurous travelers. Known for its Soviet-era relics like Lenin statues and military history, the tiny enclave has its own currency and is governed independently, though internationally it remains part of Moldova. It's extremely cheap, with estimates of a day's expenses around $15. Local interactions vary, but generally, older residents are polite, while younger ones are curious.
