Celebrating Orthodox Easter in China

Easter is a really big holiday in Macedonia. Since I'm in China now I celebrated with my classmates from Belarus, Ukraine, Russia.

Here are the eggs that I dyed for Easter.

This unusual technique is the traditional Slavic Orthodox Christian style of decorating eggs, using stocking and leaves.

We color with the eggs with some powder substances. But here I couldn't find any, so we used the traditional way of dying the eggs. And the healthy one. Onion peel.

Usually on Thursday before Easter eggs are dyed. The eggs are colored red, symbolizing the coming happiness in the resurrection.

On Sunday, eggs are tapped, end to end.

This is my Easter artwork and I'm so proud of it. :)

When I had to study last week, the weather was wonderfully clear and sunny. Yesterday, a bit hazy. :/

It's Sunday and I'm going out taking million of photos...

Have a lovely Sunday!

Invitation to nature...

These beautiful magnolias are just on front of the dorm.

When it's windy this is sight is quite often...

It's still not warm spring..

Cool branches...

this still needs more work to look pretty, right?


I've been quite busy lately, preparing my Chinese test. A very important one. So I won't be posting a lot next week or so.
Wishing you all a happy start to the new month.
Thank you.
