Moldova: “Last Bell” Ceremony

Categories: Eastern & Central Europe, Moldova, Arts & Culture, Education, Travel, Youth

Peter Myers of Doi Ani de Zile: Adventures in Moldova posts a moving and detailed account of the “last bell” ceremony [1], which marked the end of his second – and final – school year in Moldova: “I got through the speech well, although my voice stuck in my throat numerous times. When I finished, students blitzed me with dozens of flowers. In total, I received at least 40 flowers, enough to fill both a vase and a five-liter bucket when I got them home.”
