I dream of Jordan

I remember I was once in Jordan. It was the end of 2016 and I was visiting a friend who lived there. I was travelling alone and it was quite a strange and new experience to me. 

Travelling alone in the Middle East. Scary and exciting. 

First stop - Amman



Next stop - Petra. One night I stayed Ghassab (in the picture below), who has a cave somewhere near Petra. Here he is leading us to the beautiful city from the other side...



After visit to Petra, we spent a night in the cave and in the morning, instead of alarm, we some these amazing visitors...




One more day in Petra...



Next stop - Wadi Rum. A bedouin asked me what I wanted to do, I said I want to spend a night alone in the desert. So he left me with these, alone...




Morning in the desert.

And the the other bedouin came and showed me around.






A visit to a small city As-Salt, which definitely worth your time. 



And, of course, Jerash...




And Um Qays. To your left - Palestine, to your right - Syria.

Kino pavasaris 2014 trumpai: keli sakiniai apie matytus filmus

Sebastianas Lelio "Glorija" (Čilė)  http://www.kinopavasaris.lt/filmas?id=1393154187 Labai neblogas, geranoriškas filmas, kuriame pasakojama apie išsiskyrusią, jaunatvišką, žavingą, į šeštą dešimtį įžengusią Gloriją, kuri kupina gyvenimo džiaugsmo, bet, deja, jai ne itin sekasi su vyriškiais. Puikus aktorės Paulina Garcia vaidmuo. Ne viena situacija sukels šypseną, bet kartu ir gali kiek įgelti. Tiesa, su viena drauge susiginčijome, ar čia komedija: ji kvatojosi viso filmo metu, aš vietom šyptelėjau, bet man tai tikrai nėra komedija:) Yuvalis Adleris "Betliejus" (Izraelis) http://www.kinopavasaris.lt/filmas?id=1389210371 Apie šį filmą reikės parašyti kiek plačiau, ypač kai pažiūrėsiu Hani Abu- Assado "Omarą" (Palestina). Abu filmai pasakoja apie palestiniečių Izraelio informatorių gyvenimą, tik iš skirtingų perspektyvų. Kol kas esu nusivylusi "Betliejumi". Labai jau kalama į vienus vartus. Šiaip išties įspūdinga istorija, stiprūs vaidmen...

Things I love about Indonesia

Masjid Agung, Semarang Well, after so much time of silence I decided once again to write my blog. It's almost six months I'm in Indonesia. To be more precise - in Java island. Six months of volunteering in the Indonesia International Work Camp (IIWC) ( http://iiwcindonesia.wordpress.com/ ). And because only two months are left, I do not feel like writing an official report about what I was doing, or trying to remember these past six months as clearly as I can. Because only two months are left, I am starting to feel nostalgic and I am starting  to mentally collect things with which I fell in love in Indonesia. Things that I'm gonna miss when I'm back. So instead of the report, story, or picture presentation, I'm composing a list of things. Things, I'm not sure I can live without anymore but I have to. The order of things are not important. 1. The sound of adhan . For those who do not know what "adhan" means ...
