USA: BOSTON AUG 2012

August 2012 I forgot how awarding it is to wake up early in the morning at 5am and have a yoga practice at sunrise on the pier by the Charles river. This is almost the end of my monthly stay in Boston which I began to love. It's such a complex city which offers everything from the parks to the river and the ocean, from the harbours to the beaches and islands, from the theatres to the art galeries, science museums, from the music to the dance, from the skyscrapers to the country houses, from the beggars to the Harvard's/ MIT professors and highly qualified medical doctors. From the peace to the haos but just in a right amount. I forgot to mention, from the lobster's brain to the clams juice which you can enjoy in a special company. Beacause of the summer time the arts events are very poor, however I've still managed to watch a classical music concert with a disable violinist. His performance was merged with a painting artist whose gracious movement across the tale by throwing the different colours paints enriched the impressive sound of the violin. Very lucky I was invited to this event last minute by very talented dance producer who developed the Grimp Project (fusion of professional dancers and disable artists). As I've already booked the ticket for the Musical 'cartalk' on the same e evening unfortunately I couldn't finish watching the concert, which was apparently much more abstract and unique, than the musical I was rushing to see later. Never the less I've managed to see both, a very niche project which I loved and much more commercial musical which was average. The interesting thing about the musical was that the cast was made of students and professionals with support of MIT-the biggest educational institution in the world (Massachusetts Institute of Technology). Everything in this 1mln habitants city seems to be so balanced and right. There is no stress of the big metropoli even thought it's a quite big and developed city. Even if since the beganing it looked like an isolated city in terms of making friends, evantualy it appeared much more available and easy going. I made some friends, when I'm free of my working catch up duties, spend some time out going to the wonderful beaches on the eastern cost such as: Glocester, hoursenack, Hull, Ptown in Cape Cod. The beaches are gigantic, miles long surrounded by sandy dunes. The weather is perfect, everyday around 30c degrees. The only concern is the ocean, the water is not turquoise or transparent, its colur is rather green or brown. Still continue swimming miles away. Masachusets in the USA is a kingdom of sea food especially lobster, which I'm having at least twice a week. The price of it is relatively cheap in the restaurants and very cheap in the supermarkets. I can have one lobster by 5$. The rar fish and seafood - sushi is fantastic. The culinar speciality of this state is clam Chowder and gigantic clams are all over the place. The food either in the restaurants or in the shops is delicious. The sea food and the fish is a main part of my diet. Generally everything is cheaper in terms of services such as beautition, coblar and so on. Though for everything one must pay, for example the carparks to access the beaches. Americans are used to go to the places designated by the state such as beaches or forests. In order to go to the beach one needs to pay for the car park from 7 to 25$, otherwise there is no other place to park. In the residential area there is no way to leave the car. The nicest beach so far was the Hourseback, miles long and with wonderfull dunes. Though the other places like Gloucester, Holly were also unique in their own way. Gloucester very picturesque with an intimate small beach, Holly a peninsula opened to the cold Atlantic ocean from the one side and repaired from the wind bay from the other residential side. Both really cousy. The next destination is Newport and Crane Beach. The city of Boston is made of two major locations, Charles river with a reach vegetation and the charbour - very turistic area of Quincy Market (similar to the Covent Garden in London). I met over here some interesting people who I would like to collaborate with in the future in regards the performing arts as well as well being. Americans are very consistent and hard workers, you can rely on them. This is what makes this country strong and safe. I feel here even safer than in London. Because of the smaller size of the city and decreased number of population there is less competition and probabely easier to develop the projects. I've already found few links to proceed possibly with my future projects here in Boston. I'm looking forward to come back to this city in April the next year 2013. If I ever move

to Boston I would like to live with my wife in the Reviere Beach by the ocean, which is a wonderful sandy beach place with a clear ocean.
