Strandja's Secrets

Тази година любимата Странджа ми разкри някои от своите красиви вълшебства. През май видяхме цъфтящата Зеленика, а вчера бяхме допуснати до светилището на Св. Марина, покровителка на моряците и змиите. Скътана в гората свещена още от времето на траките пещера, в която капка по капка в каменни съдове се събира лековита и благословена вода... Незабравимо приключение, в което главна роля имаше и гранична полиция, която буквално ни ескортира покрай новата гранична ограда до пътеката към светилището!

Little by little with every year the magic of Strandja mountain opens up to me...

This year in May we saw the unique Zelenika (Rhododendron) in blossom and yesterday we were blessed with the opportunity to visit the sacred St. Marina cave deep in the woods... 

This was an unforgettable adventure! More photos here

Monemvasia

Recently I've been inspired by a couple of beautiful voyages I experienced... The one was to Pelopones, Greece and the other to Mallorca, Spain... So, a lot pf paintings are waiting to be brought into the material world :)

Here are the photos from this charming island/peninsula Monemvasia in South Greece...

Sara Donati

2016 started with a voyage, lots of impressions and new discoveries. One of them was a book with wonderful illustrations I fell in love with right away in the little library in Lyon, where I found it...

Here is Sara Donati's site for more of her drawings...

Pula, Rovinj and David :)

Това беше най-доброто от септември...и въобще. Пътуване с приятели. Красива Хърватска с много италиански привкус...

 Соления скалист плаж и хоризонта далечен...

                                      

и концерта на Дейвид Гилмор за капак... Не само, ами билет - подарък, чудо...

Most wonderful trip to Croatia and David Gilmour's concert in the Arena of Pula...
