RO:

Devenim. Spatial.

Inevitabil, ajungem sa ne identificam cu locurile in care traim. Miscarea strazii, cladirile, culorile orasului, evenimentele, pe toate le absorbim prin toti porii si ajungem sa fim echivalenti cu ele. Ni se par toate familiare, ne simtim protejati si, in cele din urma, devenim una/unul cu locul. Nu degeaba de foarte multe ori auzim exprimari de genul “parizienii au un extraordinar simt al stilului”, “londonezii obisnuiesc sa vorbeasca mult despre vreme”, “new yorkezii sunt mereu grabiti”, s.a.m.d.. Da, sunt stereotipuri, generalizari exagerate poate, insa toate astea vin de undeva, iar sursa se regaseste tocmai in atributele locului despre care vorbim. Pe scurt, omul devine spatiu.

De o luna, as putea spune ca eu = Nicosia & I love it! Mi se pare o experienta extraordinara sa te muti intr-o alta tara (chiar si pentru putin timp), sa observi si, eventual, sa-ti insusesti unele obiceiuri ale localnicilor, sa iei la pas orasul si sa ajunga sa ti se para familiar. Tocmai atunci cand ai parte de astfel de experiente, iti dai seama mai bine (mult mai bine, de fapt) cum te-a modelat locul din care provii.

Astazi am ales sa port o tinuta in concordanta cu specificul grecesc, omniprezent in Nicosia, alegand rochia SheIn in culorile alb-albastru, pe care am accesorizat-o cu ceasul Daniel Wellington (nu uitati de reducerea de 15% pana pe 31.10.2015, folosind codul “sayrouge”) si ochelarii lui Vlad.

EN:

We become. Spatially.

Inevitably, we come to identify ourselves with the places we live in. The streets movement, the buildings, the colours of the city, the happenings, we absorb them all through every pore and become equivalent with them. They look familiar to us so we feel protected and, ultimately, we become one with the place. No wonder we hear very often expressions like “Parisians have a great sense of style”, “Londoners tend to talk a lot about the weather,” “New Yorkers are always in a hurry”, and so on. Yes, there are stereotypes, exaggerated generalizations perhaps, but all these come from somewhere, and the source will be found precisely in the attributes of the place of which we speak about. Shortly, one becomes space.

Considering the last month, I can say that me = Nicosia & I love it! I find it a great experience to move into another country (even for a short period of time), to observe and eventually to appropriate some habits of the locals, to wander the city by foot and make it seem familiar. Just then you realize better how the place you came from shaped you.

Today I chose to wear an outfit in accordance with the Greek “style”, omnipresent in Nicosia, choosing the Shein dress in white and blue, the Daniel Wellington watch (do not forget about the 15% discount until 10/31/2015, using “sayrouge” code) and Vlad’s sunglasses.
