Green Gallery: a Saturday's short trip





It was an excellent idea to walk in a green space on a sunny and warm day like this Saturday! And I did it with my friends and their teenage son, who was bored with our trip in contrast to many kids and dogs which were enjoyed in the park.

 

 

 

 

 

Chalet Nimrod Castle



I believe in fate. I believe in my fate to meet the people and the places, that are right for me. I have found The "Chalet Nimrod Castle" accidentally and was surprised from   by my willingness to pay a lot of money for  an overnight to stay here. Usually my husband and I settle for a cheaper place...  Apparently, I had to learn about this place and get to know the family's project of Guy and Lilah Ashtar  Guy and Lilah Aahtar's family project. I say am talking about the "Green People" - a community of the people that who have an idea to set up an ecological village in the settlement Nimrod in Ramat ha-Golan. More than that. They plan to open the village for adults with disabilities as the workers  in the village.

My visit to Holland: Efteling





 

 

What do you think about the idea that Walt Disney got his inspiration for Disneyland  from Efteling? It amuses you? Why? First of all, Disneyland was opened in 1955, while Efteling was opened in... 1952. Secondly, Walt Disney really travelled to Europe a few times in the early 1950s and visited tourist attractions. Third, a brochure from the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions, states that Disney "spent a great deal of time studying Pieck's work at Eftling  before beginning his own parks."

 

 

Israel: Jutka Harstein and Kibbutz Harduf

 

Jutka Harstein says that I was the first journalist, who wrote about her restaurant in Kibbutz Harduf. May be. It was in far 1994... But I know exactly: Jutka was the first and only person, who was agreed to promote my first visit to Harduf. Other people, to whom I addressed a request for an interview, refused me.  "There is closed society, - claimed one of them. - We chose a simple life. Your article would have to destroy our silence."  Twenty years ago I had a slim chance to get acquainted  this Kibbutz if not Jutka. In this far time she just began her business - the vegetarian organic restaurant.

Israel: The Nisco Museum of Mechanical Music



On 31 August 2013

 in the art village Ein Hod on the edge of Haifa  

will be opened

an unusual exhibition 

I'm talking about the works of art  of Nican Cohan.  You can see them in my photos. This art was made by Nican from fragments of mechanical toys, which were destroyed in 2010 during the big fire on Mount Carmel. 

My visit to Holland: Utrecht



At the beginning of  August I had an amazing trip! I visited Holland! I stayed for several days in Utrecht and enjoyed seeing the very nice city. I had short  trips to Amsterdam, to Efteling and to Kroller-Muller Museum. And I had an exciting bicycle ride in the park nearby the Museum.  I am going to share my experience with you .
