Săpânța - A simple life

(Edited)

Săpânța, Romania.

Maria life is simple, in touch with nature. Another time, a slow time.

House is full of colors: mainly red, yellow and blue, in harmony.
A long vine tree around the building.

She uses to spin wool to built carpet, sweaters, socks and many other things:

I love the mix of colors in the following pictures:

In her veins an entire life of work:

In Maramureș region you can find many people (usually women) living in very ancient wooden houses.
Let's go inside!

She was preparing her clothes for our visit:

Here the main room. It looks like a church: sacred icons, plates, carpets, large chandeliers, embroidered cushions...

Some portraits outside:

Goodbye Maria, and thank you!

Yes, Maramures is a special place. Problem is that ancient people are dying, so hurry up to see some historical 'living' houses

Always your pictures are very beautiful and I think if your pictures are compared with different pictures then your picture will be first.

The Maria life is an enviable one. I love how the houses look both inside and outside. The old one looks good. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day.
