С ГРЪБ КЪМ ВЯТЪРА, С ЛИЦЕ КЪМ СЛЪНЦЕТО / MY BACK TO THE WIND, MY FACE TO THE SUN

На път към Кения имах голям престой в Амстердам.

On my way to Kenya, I had a one-day stop in Amsterdam.


Имах време за разходка. Всичко ми хареса тук - архитектурата, уличките край каналите, прелитащите колоездачи, атмосферата...

What a beautiful city, so picturesque and calm... I liked the channels, the lazy water, the boats, the meandering streets, the hundreds of bikes...









Щастлива съм, защото това беше уникална възможност да се срещна с моята скъпа блог-приятелка Хеди! И да усетя истинска близост. Една мечта се сбъдна!

I had the happy chance to meet my dear blog-friend Hedie! We walked around the city and shared many lovely hours together! It's unbelievable - one dream came true! Thank you, Hedie, for the sincere welcoming!


След продължителен нощен полет, ето ме отново в Африка! В Кения...
Проектът, който стартира през 2011 г. и в който участвах през първите три години, продължава да се развива успешно, днес вече под названието PAYA - Performing Arts for Youth Africa.

After a long night flight to Africa, here I am again in Kenya! Habari!
The KCAP project that had started in 2011 and in which I participated till 2013 develops successfully, so from this year on it broadens its territory and is called PAYA - Performing Arts for Youth Africa.


Отново в Кисуму! Красота навсякъде... Цветовете са толкова интензивни - в пълен контраст с прахта по улиците и районите с шокираща нищета...

In Kisumu again... Beauty is everywhere! How I missed these bright colours in magnificent forms... As well as the bird songs!







Езерото Виктория си е на мястото.:) Водата му танцува свободно, залязващото слънце рисува вдъхновено по нея и по облаците... Красивият, но коварен воден зюмбюл е изчезнал.

Lake Victoria looks magical as ever. Its surface is clear - the invasive water hyacinth has disappeared. The last sun rays draw inspiring pictures on the water and the sky above!



Групата млади артисти от Кения, Танзания и Занзибар е изключително силна: толкова талантливи музиканти, певци, танцьори и актьори на едно място. Енергията е страхотна!
Всеки преминава общ тренинг, преди "тясното профилиране".
За мен е огромна радост, че работата с кукли носи истинско удоволствие и на музиканти, и на певци, и на танцьори, и на актьори. Така ми се иска да си "открадна" някого от тях!:)

This year we work with an incredible group of multi-talented young people from Kenya, Tanzania and Zanzibar, most of them professional musicians and singers. The creative energy is mighty and inspiring!









Навсякъде се работи с отдаденост, въображение и вдъхновение... Какво емоционално и творческо зареждане само!!

This is a unique artistic, emotional and creative expeience! Everyone, every day gives his best!






Смях, музика и песни! Блеснали усмивки! Habari!:))


So many happy smiles and shining faces! When you are motivated, love art and want to develop - the mutual creative process is inspiring and full of promises for success.:)

  2. My friends, it was a pleasure to show you Amsterdam. I now have met you both and I still think it is a miracle to find friends through our blog life.
    Your Africa experience is amazing. So short time you are there and already all that beautiful happy kids and costumes! Where ever you are, you inspire the children to make art and theatre. Great work, Rossi!
