ZIUA DREPTURILOR OMULUI (HUMAN RIGHTS DAY)
Просмотров 2776 лет назад
As a part of our campaign for Human Rights Day, some members of our Health Club decided to teach the primary students at my school a few things about human rights. I’m so proud to see the dedication and the hard work these students put into creating these lessons and as a reward, I promised them I’d put the video up on RUclips for the world to see. So enjoy!

A lot of people have been asking what it is exactly that I do in Moldova. I’ve come to realize that that’s a difficult question to answer, so I decided to make a video out of it. Poftim.

I'm literally in awe at how obvious and fast your language evolution is! even small things very particular to the moldovan dialect like saying "ṣi" instead of "ce". you did great and I'm happy you managed to have a good time here ♡
Thank you so much for making this video. I am the son of a Romanian immigrant, and I recently accepted my invitation to serve as a TEFL in Moldova. Your host village looks just like my grandparents! I am so excited to embark on this experience, and I'm trying to soak up as much of the culture and life as I can before I go :)
wood for winter is free or u have to buy?
Did you go to UCI??? No waay! Anteater!!

How long was training?
Mi a placut vlogul tau foarte tare! And I actually Like your pronounciation in limba moldoveneasca. But let me please ask you one question: in care orase si saturi ati fost?
I absolutely love this song
I dont mean to be so off topic but does anyone know of a trick to get back into an instagram account..? I was stupid lost the login password. I would love any assistance you can give me.
@Anders Kamden instablaster :)
@Greyson Jake i really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and im in the hacking process now. Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Greyson Jake HOLY **** IT ACTUALLY WORKED :O I just hacked my IG login within about 40 mins of using the site. Had to pay 15 $ but for sure worth the price :) Thank you so much, you saved my account !
@Anders Kamden happy to help =)
I have 3 days to decide between Moldova and two other countries. I sure appreciate your video. Wish we could chat online. Are you on facebook? I need help with my choice.
Julianne Smith hey there! If you have an instagram, you can DM me at @scottondamove. I’d love to chat with you there
Try speaking romanian with a moldovian accent lol :D
30192 da de sii vrei sa graiesc ca un Moldovan?))
Btw regarding language , as an english speaker who do you find speaks faster in your opinion Moldovians or romanians ?
30192 Romanians definitely speak faster
Song name?
Im so excited !! Moldova see you next year 😭🔥👀
10:09 I'm from southern california and I pray for a long winter every year! Lol if it reaches 70 degrees in the spring, i hate it.
I am leaving next year to Moldova :) ! Just followed you on IG !. Super helpful video ! THANKS
Inspiring! Trying to muster up the courage myself...
Pisica este foarte draguta

Hi there! Great video! Thanks for sharing your experience with us. I am heading to Moldova this month! Do you have any advice for connecting with other expats, travelers, or peace Corp volunteers? I’ll be there for a month working with USAID and am looking for new friends to meet while I’m there.
I just applied to volunteer in Moldova starting May 2020. I'm super excited now.
How is it?
Thanks a lot :)
I just came across your video and looked at the date and it looks like you are coming close to COS! Congratulations!! As an RPCV myself, I'll wager that your second year was even better! :)
Andrea René Abroad Thanks for the kind words! The second year has definitely been a completely different ballgame, but equally exciting nonetheless. I’ve got 99 days left as of today!
@@scottondamove That is incredible!! Again, congratulations!
Omg , you have that toiled in the backyard )) I remember those from the 90's in Romania countryside and how much I hated them as a kid ))
I’m literally so amazed by how you learned the language so quick and then the way you pronounce them is just so perfect. As a Moldovan I am really honored that there’re still people who are interested in this country and get joy from living in there😍❤️❤️
Maria Parsov mulțumesc mult pentru cuvintele frumoase!
Hahah good luck man, i met some american peace corps volunteer in the wave week summer camp in vadul lui voda in 2015, thanks for coming to Moldova. As a moldovan teenager that was a really cool experience
Da tu şti cum sa vorbeşti ?

Great video, thank you!! I am hosting an exchange student from Moldova this year and am loving every second of it! Where in Moldova were you?
Amy Hodge hey there! I’m about 2 hours north of the capital, Chisinau!
10:00 Dude, you obviously haven't been to Spokane. It randomly snowed one year in the middle of fucking April.
I leave for Moldova in June. Your videos have been great in terms of knowing what it might be like to serve there!

Hi, My name is Jizelle and I committed to the Peacecorp and hopefully, once all my health forms are turned in I'll be going to Moldova and just want to talk to you about your experiences.
Hello Scott! What is the name of the song you used in the beginning of the video?
Rebecca Mulima World News - The Local Natives
Thanks for posting this video. I accepted an invitation for M34. I have a question for you. Does the initial town that you stay in for health education training have a gym?
Timothy Henry Hey man, welcome to the club! My PST town didn’t have a gym, but my permanent site has one. Keep in mind though, site placements vary tremendously, ranging from little villages to bigger “cities,” depending on the program you’re in a bunch of other factors. I was lucky enough to be placed in a bigger town, but I know some volunteers who have been doing a lot of body weight stuff at home to try to stay in shape.
ScottOndaMove would I be able to ask you some more questions? I have questions relating to my tattoos
Timothy Henry what’s up dude. What kind of questions do you have about your tats?
@@scottondamove Is it ever acceptable to show them? Like I'm wondering for packing purposes if I should pack any tank tops. Maybe not in my town, but would I want to conceal them even if traveling to the capital? I totally get the negative perceptions there and I'm totally understanding- just trying to figure out my packing. I take it they would need to be covered at all times while teaching(to include wearing long sleeves if necessary?) As I find it unlikely they could be hid for a long period from host familys, how would they react?
Timothy Henry The PC response would be to try to conceal your tattoos while teaching at all times, but from my personal experience, once you’ve integrated into your community, they eventually get used to your tattoos and it doesn’t become a big deal at all. My suggestion is to pack long-sleeves accordingly, but after a certain point, you will be able to wear short-sleeved polos that shows your tats. And you don’t have to worry about hiding your tats from your host parents or when going to the capital cause you’ll see a lot of people there have tats too
I didn't know much about the peace corps , Looks like a awesome program...awesome video thank you
Hey! I'm an M5 (stationed in Edinet...where are you??)..just found this video...so interesting that things have changed so much and yet are still so familiarly the same!
I am questioning myself - why do you come here? What is the point? Are you being paid for this?
I just scheduled my interview for a position in Moldova. Was it difficult for you to learn Romanian? What are your living arrangements like after PST?
Kelsey Harris If you’ve studied a Romance language before (Spanish/Italian/French/Portuguese), Romanian may be a little easier to learn since there are a lot of similarities. But even for complete beginners, I’d say Romanian is still fairly easy to learn. My permanent living arrangements are a bit different than my PST arrangements. I live in a bigger house in a bigger town so it has its perks. But you end up missing the small village life too every now and then. Good luck with the interview if you haven’t had it already!
This video made me smile. I was in the M20 group (2007-2009)...I loved it so much, it's now my permanent home. Mult succes si noroc tie mai departe aici in Moldova si oriunde te afli in viitor!
Mersi mult! I’d love to pick your brain sometime on how much Moldova has changed since you were a PCV. Poate putem sa ne intalnim la o bere candva la Chisinau
@@scottondamove Sorry for the late response; my wife and I were visiting family in the U.S. for a long Thanksgiving visit. I'd love to meet up with you. Find me on Facebook (same name and picture of a dog) and we can figure things out.
Man thanks for this video! This is giving me more motivation to finish my application for Moldova!
Good night. I want to volunteer. which city are you in?
Scott, I thought your reaction to winter was hilarious. Actually, last winter in Moldova was mild (I live in Bulboaca, Anenii Noi district), but then I remembered that you're from California. I'm from Michigan, so I'm used to it. Dress warmly, have some nice boots and gloves, enjoy the sound of crunching snow when you walk over it. Thanks for coming to Moldova!
I was in Moldova 2 weeks ago for vacation and filming, its great to see more of the tradition, the community and winter in Moldova through your story and this vid! feel free to check out my Moldova Vlog too :)
This is so amazing!!! ☺️ I leave for my service in Benin (Northwest Africa) in a month and honestly your enthusiasm in the video is exactly what I’m feeling and it makes me so excited to begin my service! Good luck with your next year!
Kellyann Elam Mahalo! I wish you the best in your service!
Stumbled upon your vlog! Brought back tons of memories of my service in Nicaragua. Also! Noticed your UCI flag in your video! Super cool to see another anteater in PC!
Zotzot! I’m glad you enjoyed the vlog. Hope the RPCV life is treating you well!
This is an awesome video! I would really like some information on how you prepared! I am 17 currently and I would like some tips on what I could do until I apply for a Moldova spot. Whether it be learning a language or things I could volunteer for etc. Thank you so much!
Jessika Mashburn Hey there! My biggest suggestion would be to get experience in the program that you are looking to apply into. I know with Peace Corps Moldova there are a few different programs: English Education, Health Education and Organizational Development Facilitator, so I would suggest to definitely gain some experience working in those fields before applying. Bachelor degrees are required for the English programs, but for the Health Education and the Organizational Development Facilitator Programs, you are required to have at least 5 years of professional experience in the field if you do not have a Bachelor’s Degree. And as for the language, you don’t worry about it beforehand because you will go through extensive in-country language training once you arrive. Best of luck!
ScottOndaMove you’ve helped more than you know! That is exactly what I needed to know on how to move forward. Thank you for your time!
Brânză is not cottage cheese 😐
I'm thinking of applying to a Peace Corps program in Moldova! Thanks for the video, it's nice to see what the country and culture are like before applying :D
Great videos Scott! Im applying to PC moldova now, any advice you can give me for the application process and the especially the resume? Thanks for your time! -Nick
Hey Nick, I'm also in the process of applying to PC Moldova! What position are you applying for?
hey Kayla! Im applying for the organization development facilitator! what about you?
I'm applying for the Health Educator position! Just spoke with a recruiter today and have been working on my essay section. I got a lot of really good information on the application process/interview from her if you would like me to email it to you.
Nicholas Padilla Thanks for reaching out, Nick! The application process is really simple, I would just make sure to list and highlight any experience you may have that’s related to the program that you are applying into, as well as any work you may have had with youth. We work a lot with younger people in country and in my opinion it would make your resume even more appealing if you have had experience working with a younger age group. Good luck with the application process!
Hello Scott I'm from Moldova, what village are you in?
Alexandru Efros I’m in a village in the northeastern part of Moldova, close to the Ukrainian border.
