You probably all have heard how some young Russian ladies, connect with a dating service and meet up, for instance, with American men. Recently, I heard of one of these ladies, who married a fairly wealthy man from Arizona, and they had a son. Due to her applying for American citizenship, she was not allowed to leave the USA, and couldn’t go back to Russia for years and years. Then finally, everything was ok, and she could plan a trip back home after all those years, I believe it was 12 or 16 years which had passed.
She must have a sense of humor. They went back over Christmas, and she decided to dress up as Santa Claus. So, they showed up at her family’s place. Her family didn’t recognize her son, who they had never seen in real life. And they got quite a surprise when their own Santa Claus daughter, could tell them; Merry Christmas, in person!
Que bacana.
Realmente muito emocionante.
Beijos,

Yes a book provokes a reaction as the man who talks about
the lake… being a man.
I respect every religion, legend, mystery…only why is the woman seldom mentioned? When is there a revelation for her?
Do we need to be a buddhist to be a shaman… to have “a physical, emotional, spiritual contact with nature or humans”?
Or maybe we all have to jump in the lake to feel our blood streaming by our heart that gives the warmth of the cold river…here and now without seperation, external factors just you as nature is…naked.
I love to watch your Transiberian…which is a link for many hearts.
Love

não precisava ter sido tão deselegante. Pedir convite de volta? puxa vida!
In the clip, the man talks with you about the Buryat shamans. So, this I just have to ask: When you were in the region, did you, by any chance, have the opportunity to witness or perhaps participate in the art of Buryat archery?
My uncle was always an avid archer, but though I was fascinated with the sport, he would never teach me. When I expressed an interest, as I was growing up, he would only laugh and make fun of me, because, as he said, “women were too weak” to take up archery. I remember him once handing me his bow–this is a man who is 220 pounds and over six feet tall–and telling me, “Okay then, go ahead, try it!” Of course, I couldn’t even manage to draw the bow. It was, for him, a moment of great triumph.
I’ve still always loved the idea of the sport, however, but particularly Mongolian archery. It is just one of those desires that never got fulfilled, and never quite went away–a dream yet to be chased. I just wonder if you ever tried it–or even witnessed it–and what you thought of it, what your experience of it was like?
Kindest Regards,

I love watching these :-) ..Yes we need to jump into the lake !
Could not understand what he is saying the man u talk to but I feel he is very knowledgeable..too,Blessings Tania
Part IV. A very poetical approach of our Life. Beautiful words and beautiful scenety.. Living in the towns and in our everyday duties we forget the beauty of Nature and the warmth of ‘meeting’ other people and really looking into their eyes and souls.
A very interesting conversation with the man. It seems that your questions were about male or female shamans? But, I think our body is just the ‘envelope’of our souls. It is the mask we have decided to wear for a mement,before our incarnation, in order to learn our lesson, to take and give experience, to pay our ‘debts’, to make it up for our past wrong steps and learn better our lesson: LOVE.
I wonder, what have you whispered into this man’s ears??
LOVE,
THELMA

I couldn´t understand everything what was said, because I can understand spanish a little, but not russian.
But he was very moved & grateful, the man you where talking to,
that I could see :-)
He talked from his heart :-)
That is our mission in this life, I think, to touch each others hearts and listen to each other.
Love Jessica
Thank you =)
Dear Paulo! Thank you for this clip. I would like to share one observation with you, the thing that I liked most. I really like and appreciate the way you talk to people and listen to them. You are so involved, attentive and respectful. This is what most of our communication lack: attention and true interest. We tend to hurry, to SAY something rather then to listen, we interrupt to express ourselves so that a conversation often reminds of several monologues that go parallel.
And, I loved the “Hello, trees” part. This is exactly what I say when I find myself in a beautiful place. Thank you.
