When human meets nature, nature meets human's heart

Time goes by and the world is changing, to the good and to the bad... actually depends on how you look at it.

To me, it's both. But when you see the world today, it gets you thinking; the real world, not the one we're trying to create through humanization of everything. The real world is the one that gave birth to us as a species, the world where no buildings existed, where no factories polluted the air, where no trees were cut to the extent of deforestation of a whole mountain, the world where waters were pure and every animal was healthy...that is the real world!

The Calling of the Mountains

There are several rumours about how mountain-people or mountain-lovers are, most of them imply them being dirty people, rough necks, badly raised and sinful. Truth is, that is rarely true. But you have to find that out for yourself as I know no matter what others tell you, you just won’t believe it, ‘cause you know better. Don’t you? You know better because a friend of a friend of your mother’s uncle told you so. Right, perfect! But, how did he know that? He heard it from another friend of a friend.
And yet, I’ll tell you my own experience on this matter. I have to share it with you.

The end of summer


In all our legends and stories we can see that Romanians were very tight to their land, the agricultural moments used to mark the calendar and these days were felt as holidays or feasts.
Today, even if many peasants forgot what they used to work and how they used to do it the hard way thanks to the upcoming technologies and to the ways everything is being mechanized and industrialized, you can still feel a special itch in your heart when you get close to the old traditions.
