Moroccan Adventures
All Moroccan provinces are very different from each other by the landscape, relief, residents and other features. I want to start the story with the most colorful part. Morocco produces very small amount of oil and natural gas from the pool of Essaouira and a small amount of natural gas from the Gharb pool. Essaouira is my favorite city of Morocco, a city of poets and artists. Essaouira (Mogador in the past) is a real Moroccan town, situated on a strip of the Atlantic coast, where winds blow throughout the year, but the city is known for its mild climate. There is a broad band of the public beach…

When you would like a real Eastern exoticism, just come to Morocco. Persian Gulf countries have been stepped forward long time ago, the remains of their national identity huddle on small islands among skyscrapers.

Yes, buildings are dilapidated, the country is very poor, but its spirit is amazing. Morocco is an agricultural country. Many people grow vegetables and fruit, but the others have a huge problem with the work. But the work of farmers is visible. Oh, these fabulous oranges!

Reconstruction of the Finnish costume: Beauty transformation (part 2)
The Finnish history of the 20th century is not so simple. Transformation of the standards at that time has played a huge role in the culture and style of the Finnish people. In towns, make-up was no longer considered as frivolous as it had been before. Painting your lips and powdering your nose — even in public places — was positively fashionable. Women found their role models in the great stars of the silver screen. The sales and promotion of cosmetic grew. Shops offered both Max Factor and Elizabeth Arden cosmetics and Eau de Cologne 4711. Coco Chanel`s perfume Chanel No. 5 had been on the market since the begining…

Reconstruction of the Finnish costume (part 1)
There is a wide range of exhibits in the State Museum of Finland in Helsinki. I had a pleasure of meeting an amazing history of the Finnish costume, and now I’m going to tell you about it. The reconstruction is based on the finds of a 10-11th century at the Luistari cemetery in Eura, Western Finland. The ancient Eura costume was the first Finnish reconstruction with a mantle dress of the so-called peplos type. The reconstruction is based on the finds of a single grave, but a dress with the same basic model was probably in use throughout Southwestern Finland during the Viking Age. The costume was ordered for the…
