Saint Petersburg Photos

A while ago I moved to St. Petersburg. I didn't like this moody city with its coldness and gray sky all the time. The whole athmosphere here is gloomy. But the center of this old and strange city makes an impression.

Gaulish pendant

Finally, I have received my new pendant with the inscription on Gaulish from Eluveitie Online Shop.
This is exact replica of a 2000 years old pendant as it was found in archaeological excavation in France.
The incription on it says: "Geneta imi daga vimpi", that signifies "I'm a good and beautiful girl".
This thing is really unique.

One place, four photos.

Autumn, the last photo of the year, the fourth.
Winter, spring and summer passed, time passed.
Circle of life have closed, led us to it's beginning.
It's unusual, but this is first time of my life when I don't feel melancholy because of autumn and winter. Who knows, why?..

Photo 4. Autumn.

Forgotten stories of Porussia.

Today in Kaliningrad region, in Ushakovo village, where Brandenburg Castle is situated, took place historical festival "Forgotten Stories of Porussia". There were historical reenactment, folk music, costumes, interesting things for sale,  theatrical performance, food... 

I have managed to take a picture of this guy with bagpipes. Unfortunately, he was leaving so I didn't take a picture when he played. 

Strange guests had appeared before thetrical performance began...

Learn Gaulish!

Just have found some Gaulish phrases, that were on different things taken from  archeologic excavations.
This ancient dead language now is represented only by several dozen words and some phrases. And a few songs by my favorite Eluveitie band!
Here are they:

tavrina vimpi
“Taurina (is) pretty”
tiono vimpi morvcin
“Divine pretty girl”
moni gnatha gabi buddutton imon
“Come, girl, take my kiss”
geneta vis cara
“Dear girl, do you want to?”
geneta marcosior maternia
“I want to ride Maternia”
nata vimpi pota vi (nvm)
“Pretty girl, drink wine!”
nata vimpi cvrmi da
“Pretty girl, bring beer!”

Pay attention to word  "vi (nvm)" - it's a Latin "vinum"! It's interesting, isn't it?
