the masked men from Paunesti
Today we had a festival of local winter traditions in my town. I didn't know until after it happened, unfortunately, so the pics are not mine. I saw some posts on Facebook about it and I want to share the most exotic participants: the masked men from Paunesti. If you search "mascatii din Paunesti" you will find youtube videos too. They make a lot ( Read more... ) -
update
It's been so long since I last posted, I am not sure what to start with. But I will try.- On Monday I got my first shot of Moderna vaccine. No serious side-effects, except for a numb pain in the arm, but totally manageable.

I took a few hours off ( Read more... ) -

As I am ( Read more... ) -
The Goat
I love end of the year traditions and this time I have a short video I made of The Goat dance tradition. It's a very old Romanian tradition and I would guess it's pre-Christian as origin.

obsessed
I'm obsessed with a new (to me) youtube channel, Tsvoric. I have watched her videos of DIY Christmas decorations for hours yesterday and today I am tempted to start over. Here I love the pistachio shells flowers!!!
I have an unhealthy obsession with Christmas decorations in general. I can't help but add something to my collection of decorations ( Read more... )
