Selimpur evenings

Every now and then we are amazed by our encounters with intense goodness. We generally find this in people who have to survive under very harsh conditions. It stirs, warms and inspires.
This inspiration made Ed grab his camera from his bag, and shoot some pictures of an evening in Selimpur.
This for us was a moment of recognition in a world completely unknown to us: a bike under a lamppost.
Earlier that day we walked through the neighborhood and were invited to come to a house along the railroad track.
The family's most beautiful cups were brought out, and while we listened to the stories of our host, we were served lovely tea and biscuits.
The hostess and host. They told us they study at the Fine Art Academy. In our opinion, their two main inspirations are their deep-rooted pride and their unwavering perseverance.
