- You asked me how is it to move to Moldova?
What do you need in terms of documents?
How to open a business?
How the people are?
Well, I thought that an answer straight from someone who already moved to Moldova would be the best and most approaching for you. So I want to introduce you this incredible man, nice human, smart citizen and a person always ready to participate in the social life of Moldova.
Let us know how informative it was from a 1 to 10 scale đ€â€ïž
With love,
Djulieta

That was a really interesting interview, and with such a lovely man too. Please bring us more interviews like this ! I was fascinated to hear him say that so many people in Moldova speak English, as I had thought that would not be the case. Great work Djulieta.
Worked with a young Moldovan couple in N.Nevada on a summer internship...... Wonderful people... they're home now with a beautiful family..... I worry for them daily....we stay in contact..... praying for their safety....thanx for the interview
Very very good video, Julieta. I really enjoyed it. Best wishes from Colin in Edinburgh đ
The Family Unit is being destroyed, it's so sad, so unatral. This makes me want to show more familia affection. I'm glad Moldova is still like this đČđ©
This was such a fascinating interview, thank you for bringing Basil Nicas on the show. Loved hearing everything you both had to say~
This is so fascinating! Could you do a series of these videos touring local businesses and interviewing people? I lived in Chisinau for a summer and fell in love with a placinte shop near the Opera. I wish Iâd taken pictures of the women making the pasty because itâs lived only in my head for years. Iâd love to see it again and show everyone Iâve told about it.
I've been researching Moldova. I find Moldova to be very interesting! I would like to visit and who knows, maybe move there!
Excellent interview and video. Leaving the U.S. next year, going East to many countries, and Moldova has always been at the top of my list.
I visited Moldova just before Covid. I really loved this country! I even asked myself why wouldnât I move to this small simple country?
Greetings from Brazil!!! Make Moldova great!!!
I live in Germany but if someone told me that I could move to Moldova I would definitely do it! I just find Moldova so interesting and beautiful. And yes, I know that life in Moldova is not always easy, but I love challenges and would have the experience without hesitation! And even if some cannot understand it, I like Moldova very much and it is an under-represented country which, with more attention in the world, could solve its problems more easily than at presentđČđ©.
PS: Thank you for this video đ
There were 150 000 German settlers in the south of modern day Moldova republic , they were moved to Germany in 1940 before the war broke out.
How true is it that the average income is 3,000 MDL a month.
@@rickyrey3503 3000 lei is more like a retirement income in MD from what I know.
@@dacmd3210 What is a normal wage.?? Maybe double.?
@@rickyrey3503 I couldn't tell you exactly but sure more than 3000 Lei, way more. My guesstimation would be around one gran.
Such a great interview! Bum. Basil is amazing and his point of view about Moldova along with his worldview is an awesome "come to Moldova" call. â€
Nah dude is just a pimp
SECOND Comment. My brothers wife is from the Hincesti area. Have a good one sweetie.
Outstanding interview!! I love your channel. Been in Chisinau for a month now enjoying it so much. Great Parks and have met wonderful people.
Thankyou for your time and sharing your interview. I live in Australia, Moldova is on my agenda now
Superb vlog and interview, cheers!
This guy found so many advantages of living in Moldova. It's a great pity that million of people who left the country, they didn't.
He's rich and American, that explains a lot. đ
@@milobaret8672
You're damn right!
He's rich so he can afford any living he could wish out there. If he was a simple poor guy born somewhere in Moldavian village I bet he'd have another attitude.
Anyway I like him )
I've never seen any native Moldovan glorifying this country that much.
I love your videos. Thank you for sharing with us your beautiful country Moldova. â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
Djulieta, â€ïžâ€ïž from California. Youâre awesome. Your overall demeanor is very refreshing and your laugh is infectious.
Thank You For Doing this Video and Interview w/ Basil. As an American Single older Man of Course I was Fascinated about the Family oriented Women and Culture!. Look Forward to more VideosđđđŒ. Thank So much
Best Episode To Date! đ
Djulieta thanks for share you personal love and opinions about Moldova human traditions, I wish to be there on my time future, thanks so much to open my heart.
Made the idea of moving to Moldova very approachable
Very interesting and informative interview. It sounds like the country has a lot of charm. Glad to hear that Moldova still has the family unit structure. Maybe I will visit when I retire. I am 62 years old now. I wonder if you can get citizenship there? It sounds like a good place to set up a online business and operate from there.
Perfect video!
I have always wondered about this country! I will definitely visit now !!
It was 10 as informative. I know a Brazilian couple in Moldova. I am worried about Russia invading Moldova. Congratulations for your channel. You are lovely!
thank you for this video
I spent a week writing, in Moldova, in the North. Wonderful memories.
Merci énormément pour vos vidéos..!
Je suis français et je suis actuellement Ă ChisinauâŠ.jâadore cette ville.
Merci pour votre regard sur votre pays , grĂące Ă vous jâai dĂ©couvert des endroits trĂšs sympathiques !!
Je pense mâinstaller iciâŠ..
Bonne journée !!
Merci beaucoup et avec plaisir))

I'm liking Moldova more and more. Especially the arts being mentioned! Opera and symphonies!
Congratulations Djulieta! Great video on the Moldavian culture, traditions, family! I live in Valencia, Spain, but here these values are lost, unfortunately. I intend to visit and live in Chisinau this year for at least one month, because I would like to know and meet as many people and see as many places in Moldova as I can. Keep going the great job you are doing!
Wow itâs looking good đ, I miss that city now.
I just went to Cricova. My company is headed there to Moldova in another industry. Iâm Also from NY I am not too sure about messy people.
GREAT VIDEO!
Really awesome video guys thank you for sharing â€âš by the way any idea what kind of watch that heâs wearing ?
I like that word, you said are not a "godpodar" if you don't taste the household wine. Loves to meet nice and beautiful people of Moldova. Nice and beautiful ladies like you too. Thanks for this insights.
Om coming to Moldova soon..
I speak Romanian as well...can't wait!!!
I love to see u again ...i love moldova
Thanks for your videos, I appreciate them alot. And you have the coolest name I've ever heard, kudos to your parents on that one
Currently visiting ChiĆinÄu from the US.
Nice video very positive.
i hit a HOME RUN with this interview! sounds like my young years in Minnesota. The Family is under attack.
Interesting video and very illustrative about what Moldova is really like, a country that I love.
What is missing is that you let your interviewee complete the topic of Moldovan women, what is his opinion regarding something more than the beauty of Moldovan women?
Great presentation. I want to visit. What is the best time of year to visit for the first time? I know, not August. How long to get a taste of the countryside, too?
One very interesting take away from this interview... Having a Moldovan wife, I fell in love with not only her, but her country. When we first started to date, and I would come visit Chisinau, one comment from her was often repeated, "Now you've made me love my own country, too".
So cute! đ„°
Thanks for the info especially through this interview with a Greek-American. It's really great to know the info from someone who is able to go through all the process of how to establish a corporation in Moldova. I'm not very interested with staying as a permanent resident. What I am thinking is how to import wines from Moldova and sell it to other countries like in Southeast Asia. Glad to know that there is a one-stop-process in a building where, according to Bilkas, processing your application for a corporation is done in just three days. But can you start a business in Moldova without a Moldovan partner? Like owning a business 100 percent owned by a foreigner.
This guy is an old pimp
i enjoyed my visit to moldova.hope the country does not experience conflict with the current war.
Love this. Very relevant to me looking for a retirement place. How about his family though -- is wife still in NY? Or did he marry a Moldovan and settled now? Or maybe a single lifestyle instead? It's easier to travel and move without extra baggages.
Ok, convinced. Moving to Moldova.
I can vouch for the wine. We had some at an event in Ukraine and it was a hit.
Informative interview with Basil. Consider asking your next guest about Moldovan cuisine and street food and sports. Thank you. Sudeep from Western India.
He's a pimp
Hi. I want some suggestions on careers in Moldova and various industries. Could you help me? Have you got Social Media?
Nice đđ»
I'm visiting moldova(Chisinau) next month in november. I will be also remote working from there. Do you suggest anything for me where to live and which cafe place to work from.??? It will be very helpful thank you Djulieta.
What would it cost (if any idea) buying apartment in moldova?
How can I get in touch with this gentleman in Maldova? Iâll need his help to start a business.
3d comment I always wait for your videosâ€đčđ€đČđ©đČđ©
I just came from Chisinau Moldova and i really loved it but there was one weird thing i very much disliked. The ambulances blare through the city 2 hours a day with screaming sirens. Are so many people being rushed to the hospital there 24 hours a day? Whatâs happening with these ambulances?
I am American who has been coming to Moldova since 2003 then I started the wine import called Moldova Traders then I do some tourism work also .
I want a job in Moldova so I can stay .
Nice video! Do you have marriage agencies in Moldova?
I am Moldovan and Iâm proud †Sad I moved out to Englandđ
Hi djulieta I am a Mauritian living on a beautiful island đ I would like to know the process how to come to moldova
Which cafe was it?
Definitely Mam....you miss being single again....so Moldova is off the list for a Traditional Woman.....
I might move to Moldova!
Moldova is an amazing country.
No it isn't, it's full of peasants
I know not to come in August, how about September? has it calmed down? :)
It is better. Or the beginning of October âïž
Nice vidio.
Hello Djuliéta, could you tell me if currently the situation is quite normal in Chisinau ? I'm not affraid about the virus but about the life in place... Are the restaurant bars and nightclubs open normaly ? People are still ready to go out there ? If the situation is sad and lack of people outside it won't worth to go there next weed-end... If someone else could answer it would be great as well ! Thanx
Moldova was always relaxed in this pandemic period. Moldova's don't care))) so bars and restaurants are still open. There is life inside. And people just walk around
@@livinginmoldovawithdjuliet8984 Thanx so much, I'm happy to hear that ! We'll see your beautifull country next week-end ! Bye !!!
@@alexmendes7292 don't for her to share some impression âïž
@@livinginmoldovawithdjuliet8984 sadly I'm married to a moldovan woman but thank God I live in the US and i make a lot of money
I am going next week to Moldova and will let you know. As far as I know everything is calm there
Moldova is a beautiful country in many ways but I've always felt I don't belong this place
What do you mean, Dmitrii?
@@IQscan51
I mean one doesn't fit current society and environment, it's like you're being at home but nonetheless something is wrong and it makes you a little bit anxious, eventually you decide to leave, you find a solace somewhere else
đâïž
What is the cost of living for home or apartment + utilities?
See this czcams.com/video/P2yQ47hfeU4/video.html
Moldova is pretty, being like Moldova đđ â
Makes me want to get rid of all my junk and move there. Its getting weird here
I'm outta here! hahaha! I am retired (sort of) nuclear and mechanical engineer, and speak Russian and French. I think that I would survive. I've travelled a lot, and spent some time in neighboring Ukraine, so we'll see. Sometimes I just feel like I need to move.
Could you please mark the timecodes for the questions/topics discussed during the interview? That would be really helpful, because I'm scrolling through it and in one moment you're talking about the elegant looks of people when going outside and on the other about Ion Ceban.
21:57 oh no you took away his smile and froze him with your comment. đâ Took him some time to recover you had to cut.
SOUNDS GREAT so far but whats it like now during the ukraine /russia conflict?
is there lotsa refugees and turmoil living next door to that?
I yried what this guy was doing there with Wines etc in the Southern Moravian region of what is today the Czech Republic. Fantastic wines and local cheeses. I tried to work a distributor and marketing deal to America and Europe...was totally derailed by interfering and meddling middle men and outright Mafia operators. Shame.
Stakker got the FIRST comment.
Hello ! The leaders are always first !
@@meteor8076 Hello Meteor my best friend !! DPRK say Moldova great place for holiday!
Alexander Pushkin St 24, ChiÈinÄu 2012, Moldova
so true about women dressing like women
He is an American wine speculator with high income in Moldova.
Everything is cheap at his income and women are free.
Djulieta,
I ask a question at the end, please consider answering it.
I'm American, an older man close in age to Basil Nikas, and have decided to move to Moldova full time to open a business. I lived and worked in foreign countries (Vietnam and Thailand) and found it very difficult to learn the local language because everyone wanted to learn English so I never got to practice when outside of the classroom.
Because I believe learning the language and culture are critical for success I am dedicated to learning both before starting a business or buying property.
Therefore, I want to find a family in a village (not in Chisinau) where I can live in the home and learn the language through daily conversation.
Essentially I would like to find a situation similar to what high school exchange students do where they live with a host family.
Here's the question.
Is helping me locate a family to live with a service you, or someone you know, can help me with?
Thank you for any assistance you can give me.
Jason
Hi...
I love the world war 2 Mural in the Military Museum
Actually most of the world still does have strong families - it is the western world that doesn't. Africa, Middle East, Asia, South/Central America and Eastern Europe all have strong family culture.
Moldova is beautiful country (Moldovan people should proud on it),love and respect for Moldova from INDIA
Listening to this, why is Moldova poor again?
Definitely agree about there being a group of evil people trying to destroy the family unit.
Great interview, watching from Pakistan.
Love Moldovans, had a Moldovan GF once
Be careful their
Moldovan Women are great looking, but the downside is that they know That they have Great Looks. I would not want to live with a woman who loves herself and knows she is beautiful. I knew a Moldovan Woman who immigrated to Edmonton, I met her at a Drug Store, hardly knowing what her job was, she is still there unmarried, BUT her Looks have changed... in 7, 8 years. Years of foundation had taken its toll.
How things have changed since the invasion next door?
moldovians not friendly people and life there is hard.
rusm?
I was in Moldova for 5 months and was a horrible experience... a real 3rd world country
_Kinda sounds like Jeff Bezos!_
About to be invaded . Sad.
Whatâs ur favorite part of Moldova? Iâd love to come someday currently in Florida USA. Do you have Snapchat or instađ
