My Introduction to the Hive Community I am Mariek

I WAS BORN IN NEW YORK, THE BIG APPLE, THE CITY THAT NEVER SLEEPS, THIS IS MY PASSION "BIG AND NEVER SLEEPS", FOR MUSIC, ART AND NATURE, FOR THE COLORS OF LIFE CAPTURED IN A BEAUTIFUL BLUE SKY IN THE BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS AND TREES WITH DIFFERENT COLORS LIKE RAINBOWS AND DIFFERENT SHAPES CREATED BY THE CANVAS OF OUR WONDERFUL CREATOR.

ALL THIS BEAUTY AND PASSION IS REFLECTED IN MY PHOTOGRAPHS TO CAPTURE A LITTLE PIECE OF THE WORLD IN EACH OF THEM, I AM A PHOTOGRAPHER, IN MY SONGS TOO, I AM AN OPERA SINGER, AND EVERY TIME I PLAY THE CELLO I LOVE TO PLAY IT, EVERY TIME I DO I AM TRANSPORTED TO THOSE PLACES THAT I HAVE KNOWN THOSE BEAUTIFUL LANDSCAPES THAT WERE PHOTOGRAPHED IN MY MIND EVERY DETAIL OF THE SIMPLE AND THE GREAT, I LOVE PLAYING THE CELLO IN THE GARTNERPLAZTHEATHER OF IS MY HOME AND IN FACT I LIVE IN MUNICH GERMANY, THE THEATER OF MUNICH IS BEAUTIFUL ARCHITECTURE OF THE GODS WAS BUILT IN 1818 AND HAS A CAPACITY OF 2400 PEOPLE.

WHEN I AM SITTING THERE IN FRONT OF ALL THOSE PEOPLE I FELL LIKE I AM IN FRONT OF THE SEA IN FRONT OF THAT IMMENSITY THAT CALMS ME THAT GIVES ME PEACE AND THAT PEACE I WANT TO TRANSMIT THROUGH MY PRESENTATION TO MY VIEWERS, FOR ME MUSIC IS ANOTHER WAY OF COMMUNICATING.

I LOVE TO TRAVEL AND GO TO MANY PARTS OF THE WORLD, INDIA, EGYPT, JAPAN, ITALY and SPAIN, I LIVED IN SPAIN FOR A WHILE TO LEARN THE LANGUAGE, I LIKE TO LEARN OTHER LANGUAGES AND DO OTHER THINGS LIKE WALKING, SWIMMING, CYCLING, CLIMBING, READING A GOOD BOOK WITH A GLASS OF WINE AND PLAYING A RELAXING MUSIC, WATCHING THE MOON ON THE BALCONY OF MY APARTAMENT.

I AM 47 YEARS OLD AND I FEEL THAT THERE ARE MANY THINGS TO KNOW AND TO LIVE, I HAVE A GREAT SPIRIT FULL OF ENERGY AND ENTHUSIASM TO CONTINUE IN THIS RACE CALLED LIFE. MY FAVORITE FOOD AND DESSERT ARE LASAGNA AND CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM WITH CHOCOLATE CHIPS AND CHOCOLATE SYRUP I LOVE CHOCOLATE AND WHO DOESN'T? OF ALL MY TRIPS I REMEMBER ONE IN PARTICULAR MY TRIP TO GREECE, FOR A TYPICAL DISH THAT I TRIED CALLED TRADITIONAL CAKE WITH AUBERGINE, POTATOES, MINCED MEAT AND BECHAMEL.

IT REMINDS ME OF LASAGNA AND THE DESSERT THAT I LIKED THE MOST WAS THE GREEK YOGURT BECAUSE IT INCLUDES ONE OF MY FAVORITE NUTS, THIS YOGURT IS MADE WITH GOAT MILK AND IS LOW IN SUGAR, ITS TEXTURE IS VERY SOFT, VERY DELICIOUS AND ITS PRESENTATION IS THE YOGURT WITH CRUSHED NUTS AND A DROPLET OF HONEY VERY WORTHY OF THE GODS.

FOR ME THE TRIPS HAVE LEFT ME MANY TEACHINGS ABOUT THEIR CULTURE AND THEIR PEOPLE, FOR ME ALL THOSE MONUMENTAL SCULPTURES ARE GREAT, I BELIEVE LIKE MANY THEORISTS OF THE ANCIENT ASTRONAUTS SAY THAT WE WERE GUIDED AND HELPED EVEN CREATED IN A CERTAIN PART BY THE ALIENS, I DO NOT DISCARD THAT POSSIBILITY.

IT IS A VERY INTERESTING SUBJECT, FOR ME EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE, I WOULD LIKE TO SAY FOR MY LIFE EXPERIENCE WHAT CONCEPT I HAVE OF LIFE AND I THINK AND I SAY THIS: "TIME IS NOT YOUR FRIEND, IT COMES FOR YOU AND FOR EVERYONE, IT DOES NOT HAVE MERCY AND IT ALWAYS WINS JUST LIKE DEATH, SO LIVE, LIVE NOW, FIGHT FOR YOUR DREAMS, LOVE, LAUGH, CRY BUT LIVE, NOW IS THE MOMENT".
