"The benefits are there for both. She could look after the old man and children who had to leave to go to work in Italy - said the Italian ambassador in the capital Chisinau, Stefano De Leo -. And the old man would live well with his pension because the cost of living here is much lower than in Italy and, especially, the pace is more natural, still tied to the seasons. For now we are aware of some twenty cases, but may even increase in coming years, "says De Leo. Outskirts of common style course, Chisinau is not exactly bucolic suburbs by residential buildings are always the same-style communist, electric trams shabby, freezing cold in winter.
