Today morning I received e-mail with link to this video from my friend. You must see that it's so good! in russian language - все хорошо, ето смешно!
Russia is a great country with really amazing people. Things like that happen because Russians are completely crazy.Nowhere else in the world you can see so many funny things.

All Saints’ Day
All Saints’ Day - time of meditation and reflection...
All Saints' Day falls on November 1, followed by All Souls' Day on November 2, and is a Holy Day of Obligation in the Latin Rite of the Catholic Church.
In Portugal and Spain, oferendas (offerings) are made on this day. In Portugal children celebrate the Pão-por-Deus tradition. In Spain, the play Don Juan Tenorio is traditionally performed. In Mexico, All Saints coincides with the celebration of Day of the Innocents ("Día de los Inocentes"), the first day of the Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) celebration, honoring deceased children and infants. In Portugal, children go door to door where they receive cakes, nuts and pomegranates.
Slavs and Roms, they have the tradition of revelry. They make on graves true feasts. They bring the food, sit on graves and discuss. They like something to drink and eat. They often pour out on the grave wine.
In Austria, Belgium, France, Hungary, Italy, Malta, Portugal and Spain people bring flowers to the graves of dead relatives.
In Poland like in the Czech Republic, Sweden, Finland, Slovenia, Slovakia, Lithuania, Croatia, Austria, Romania, Moldova, Hungary and Catholic parts of Germany, the tradition is to light candles and visit the graves of deceased relatives.
In my country (Poland) people lighting candles also on forget graves –in this time we resemble the persons who died and we wonder about fragility of our life…

Netherlands - One paceful world
Today I would like to invite you to visit one of the prettiest and the oddest places what I saw in my life. This place is Zeeburg Beeldenpark situated in Amsterdam’s district Zeeburg near to the international Camping Zeeburg
Unfortunately you will not find this place in guides That is why many people, do not know that such place exists but if you stay overnight on Camping Zeeburg surley you will find out it.
This magic place greets travellers such board:
One paceful World – is it a truth? See on this “Statue of Liberty”!
The mixture of styles, colours, materials, imagination, ideas and in this all the true people who they live there and create something extraordinary with nature's agreement but I will not write more just see MY GALLERY - Zeeburg Beeldenpark it's amazing.

Netherlands-Amsterdam - graffiti/murals
Firstly, I would like thanks you for e-mails with good advices and hints. I wait for next. I am really glad that you read abstraho :)
In previous week Ottylia from Slovakia has sent to me e-mail in which she ask me: „Could you please publish more photos of Amsterdam’s murals and graffiti?”
Ottylia , yes I can. To tell the true I haven’t a lot of pictures but I think that it is worthy of notice.
If you ever will be in Amsterdam you have to visit Spuistraat street where you can see very interesting murals like this:
.
„Live without dead time” with greate Raoul Vaneigem’s quotation from book The Revolution of Everyday Life:
„People who talk abort revolution and class struggle without referring explicitly to everyday life, whithout understanding what is subsersive abort love and what is positive in the refusal of constraints such people have a corpse in their mouth”.
This book probably was the most often stolen book in France :).
If you would like to see the another murals I recommend you my small galery: GALLERY - photos graffiti and murals in Amsterdam

Into the wild
"When you want more than you have, you think you need and when you think more than you want, your thoughts begin to bleed..."
This is a part of text from Eddi Vedder’s songs “Society” which is soundtrack to Sean Pean’s film “Into the wild”.
I have heard this song very often for 3 months and some day by chance I read on the Internet a lot of positive comments about songs and especially about the film so I decided to watch the film and I have to tell you that it really makes an impression on me. I haven't watched so good film for long!
The Film is based on a true story and the bestselling book by Jon Krakauer. After graduating from Emory University in 1992, top student and athlete Christopher McCandless (Hirsch) abandoned his possessions, gave his entire $24,000 savings account to charity, destroyed his documents and ID-card, burned money, changed his name to Aleksander Supertramp and hitchhiked to Alaska to live in the wilderness. Along the way, Christopher encountered a series of characters that shape his life and showed the world what his life meant for him and the message is wonderfull: “Sometimes I want to find myself out of the crazy world”...”It's amazing How you can learn when you're alone”... besides it shows us that even in this world, there is still something like ultimate freedom.
I think most people keep forgetting that, due to the modern world where ultimate freedom is almost unthinkable. He made us realise that it's still able just to go out, leave everything behind for a while, forget about money, phones, computers, cubicle, material things and try to find oneself , happiness and “also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong”.
I suppose that Jon Krakauer's book is so good as the film because describes other details more exactly, the relationship with their parents, with his sister, all the friends that he made, at the end their parents show up in the place and inside the bus number 142 where Chris Supertramp lived his last days in Alaska alone, so I have to read it :)
I recommend you to see this film, listen to this music it is unusual

Global Warming
Global Warming - Solidarity with Greek Rebellion.
I found this mural in Amsterdam on Spuistraatstreet in August 2008 then I didn't take the photo but when I came back in the May of this year to Amsterdam mural still exist so I saved it on photo :)
Greek rebellion – it is difficult and controversial topic first of all for the older generation which won for us freedom and capitalism. The problem is that the our younger generation are so disappointed. Neoliberalism, ubiquitous capitalism and run behind the best developed economy is tire and lead to tragedy like in Greece where in December 2008 the police murdered 25 years old student Aleksandros Grigoropoulos. After the murder all Athens surrounded waves of riots. Greece was paralised mass social protests within the week and government decided proclaim state of emergency.
As in many other countries, young people are faced with expensive studies and are especially affected by unemployment like: France, Germany, or Portugal; has a lower unemployment than Spain or Slovakia; and has more unemployment than Italy, Bulgaria, or Cyprus. Similarly, young people also represent a declining demographic portion of the compared to baby boomers resulting in a weaker impact of the youth vote in political life, though this is also not particular to Greece.
This topic is very interesting but for many people unknown. I encourage to watch this movie:

Why abstraho?
On the beginning I haven’t any special conception on which way I should create this blog, but I know that I have a lot of ideas, experiences, pictures and feelings which I would like describe in different stile. Style underlining interesting matters doesn’t notice by others and sometimes will be abstraction for him like Latin world abstraho which means simply: cut of, tear oneself from something, apart something important matters for others.
