A kilometer marker on the highway. Markers of this type were usually put up in French colonies. How this style made its way to Moldova is a mystery.
Traffic lights.
One-way traffic.
A bus stop sign.
By the way, all the bus stops were equipped with clocks out of some impulse of generosity when they were built. The clocks have either been smashed or stolen at all the stops.
A license plate.
Trash dumpsters.
Payphones.
A trend has developed among many inhabitants of panel apartment buildings to line their individual apartments with Styrofoam on the outside, for warmth.
Other than that—it’s the same village it always was.
