Musik, Filme und Bücher
My favorite band is They Might Be Giants but I will listen to anything! I really enjoy listening to music from around the world as well.
Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe
In August 2015, I had the chance to participate in a local festival where men climb a mountain after creating hand made rope garments. They then adorn their clothes with leaves, branches, and flowers from the top of the hill, and march down into the ocean. After removing their ropes, the men enter the sea and for the rest of the day they are referred to as sama, or god. Unfortunately, this deity status lasts for only 24 hours when the women regain their rightful positions as gods.
