Same, the capital of Timor-Leste's Ainaro District, is located about 50 kilometers south of the capital, Dili, in the mountainous interior and is an important agricultural and transportation hub for the country.

The surrounding area is rich in natural beauty and close to Mount Ramelau, Timor-Leste's highest peak, making it a stopover for hiking enthusiasts.

Murgeni is a town in Vaslui County, Romania, located in the Moldavian region of the northeastern part of the country, near the border with Moldova. The town covers an area of about 65 square kilometers and has a population of about 7,000, with agriculture and traditional handicrafts as the mainstay of the economy.
Located in the plains along the Prut River, Murchin has a mild climate and a predominantly agricultural and hilly landscape. Dating back to the 15th century, it was once a border fortress of the Principality of Moldavia, and its multicultural imprint was left behind by the Ottoman Empire's rivalry with Tsarist Russia. There are Orthodox churches and traditional residential buildings.
The economy is based on the cultivation of cereals, grapes and animal husbandry, and in recent years the processing of agricultural products has been gradually developed. Folklore festivals are held every summer to attract tourists, and specialties such as "Tokana" stew and handmade woolen products are well known. The city of Vaslui and Buleira are connected by the DN 24 highway.
As a quiet border town, Mălţi is ideal for experiencing the Romanian countryside, with the neighboring nature reserve of the Prut River and the Bicazi Gorge providing resources for outdoor activities. The town is currently promoting eco-tourism by improving its infrastructure through EU funds.
