About

House Moldovan

A few words about us and our travel journal

Tenerife, Spain

Hi there, fellow travelers! We are Mela and Alex, the two people behind House Moldovan. We are based in Romania and we've been travelling together since 2012.

We visited over 40 countries and are eager to share our experiences with you. ๐Ÿ‘ถ Edi is our little travel companion and he's been part of our travels since 2024.

We started this site to keep our travel writing and photography in one place: honest impressions from the trips we took, organized so you can browse by region or follow along in the journal.
