Life in Tipala, Moldova

Teacher's Day at the school. Each teacher selects an older student
to teach for them for the day. Students sing, and bring flowers
to the teachers. At the end of the day all of the teachers enjoy
lunch together.

Teacher's Day is also celebrated in the raion center (similar to a
state capital) with a concert and presentation of certificates for
certain teachers.

My second wedding in Moldova. Very exciting, and lasting until
about 4am (when I asked my host mom if we could go home to sleep).

The same wedding. 

The Hram of Chisinau (the capital city of Moldova).
It was a large celebration with great food, and a concert
that lasted all day and into the night.
