I am traveling to Molvania this summer, and I am having trouble finding a good travel guide.

Which one would you recommend? Has anyone been there? Also, is it safe?

It looks very promising, and I am sure that the US$ goes a long way there.

Some of the hostels seem a bit iffy though. Whereas many hostels have the toilet down the hall, the Molvanian hostels often have the toilet down the street.

I am looking forward to sampling the local brandy, which is distilled from garlic.

Yes, make sure to bring lots of garlic with you in case of an economic collapse. Last time I was there they allowed it as currency.

Ah, yes, Molvania! I close my eyes and remember the fantastic time I had getting drunk on garlic moonshine with Vrzep, the shepherd and his wife Grzdovyz. And trying to find a road.

I am crestfallen that Molvania's entry into the Eurovison 2005 Song Contest was withdrawn.

You guys.

There's some "where to retire" thread bouncing around here lately. Just a thought.

Come on guys, you have to admit that Molvania is one of the last, unspoiled destinations out there. I loved it. Matter of fact I'm planning some weekend get-a-ways. Anything to get away from the Rick Steves crowd.
