I'm looking for a guide in Moldova

I'd love to have some recommendations for a guide or guide + driver in Moldova. I read Kathy Wilhelm's great blog about her visit, but don't see a lot else about Moldova on here.
Thanks!

Are you looking at the country of Moldova or the region of Roumania? If the country of Moldova the North or the South? (somewhat seperated politically)

Bilbo, as far as I know, the name Moldova refers to the country, while Moldavia is the region.

Moldavia, the Estern part of Romania, is named in Romanian "Moldova" also. That is why Bilboburgler asked.

I understand why BB asked (I speak Romanian, believe it or not!). Anyway, just thought I'd point it out.

Thanks -- I am indeed looking for Moldova the country. We plan to see Romania as well, but will do that on our own.
We will likely base in Chisinau.
I've read many things about Marisha on Lonely Planet.

McMahans:

I sent you an e-mail with information on a Moldovan guide, also based in Chisinau (Kishinev). She's a professor at the Univ. of Kishinev. I didn't want to give out information here without permission, hence the e-mail.
