Just another reminder that life is truly magical! And I’m honoured to be living it here and now!
I’m a high percentage book worm. I adore the experience books give - the font of the printed on paper letters, the smell of the ink, the weight of the book itself, the feeling of turning page after page diviner's into the lake of the story until you find yourself facing the back cover.
This is how Victoria Beshliika’s book Glina made me feel. I red it for 5 days, like a junky got hooked from the page one. Powerful and interesting story that reminded me of my mother tongue and how less time I spent with it.
For the past 15 years I’ve been partly running after my roots in order to find myself. But the more I run, the closer I want to feel. The further I go, the more I sense my heart being pulled back. I miss my roots, my land, my people but I’m also happy learning new things, exploring the world. Maybe one day I’ll be back, just not now.
The practical workshop we had with Victoria thought us how to right better and what to look for in a story. We had a lovely chat about her work and life. Got our books originally signed and left with heart full of love towards Bulgaria.
Thank you Victoria for everything you do - for your story, our passion, your art and for the resilience of following your heart and sharing it all with us!
