Nova knjiga "Polarni san"

Knjiga "Polarni san" nastala je nakon uspješno realizirane prve hrvatske ekspedicije na Južni pol Davora Rostuhara, kojom je postao prvi Hrvat i 26. osoba na svijetu koja je uspjela sama, hodajući na skijama i bez ikakve pomoći, prijeći 1163 km od ruba Antarktika do Južnog Pola

It takes around 6 hours for men to get ready for the dance. They paint red ochre or yellow clay on their faces, add white lines and dotted patterns (yoghurt mixed with powder) and apply thick black eyeliner and lipstick made of charred bones or even battery liquid, to highlight the whites of their eyes and teeth. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ According to Mette Bovin, an anthropologist who worked with the Wodaabe since 1970, each of the colours has its meaning. 'Red ochre, which coats the face, is associated with blood and violence and so only used on special occasions. Yellow clay, used by some dancers to paint patterns on the face, is the colour of magic and transformation. And black, to darken lips and emphasise eyes, is a favourite hue, partly because it is the opposite of white - the colour of loss and death' says Bovin in her book Nomads Who Cultivate Beauty. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Women don't put so much effort in their makeup as much as they do in plaiting and decorating their hair. The tattoos on their face are caused by scarification at a young age and indicate tribal affiliations. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #davorrostuhar #lovearoundtheworld #gerewol #wodaabe #fulani #bororo #mbororo #chad #tchad #africa #festival #courtship #withhumans #earthpics #TLPicks #welivetoexplore #kings_shots #iamatraveller #voyaged #cnntravel #culturetrip #passionpassport #createcommune #PortraitVision #portraitmood #thisisafrica #afriquette #makeup #beauty #tattoo
Gerewol festival is one of the most fascinating courtship ceremonies in the world, and we knew right from the start that we HAVE to include it in our #LoveAcrossCultures project. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Wodaabe travel in small, isolated family groups, moving constantly in search of water and pasture. Once a year, after the rain season finishes, they gather together to find a lover or partner. It is also an opportunity to swap an old partner with a new one if you are not satisfied. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The interesting part is that men are the ones putting makeup and getting ready for hours to present their beauty to the women. They perform a teeth-gnashing, eye-rolling dance in front of them because tallness, white teeth and eyes are the most appreciated. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What do you think about this courtship ritual? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #gerewol #wodaabe #fulani #bororo #mbororo #chad #tchad #africa #festival #courtship #withhumans #earthpics #TLPicks #welivetoexplore #kings_shots #iamatraveller #voyaged #cnntravel #culturetrip #passionpassport #createcommune #PortraitVision #portraitmood #thisisafrica #afriquette #bbcafrica #natgeoyourshot #bbctravel
The nomadic Wodaabis travel in small groups of about twenty people. Their main livestock are zebuos and some goats. They move from pasture to pasture every few days, some walking, some riding horses, donkeys or oxen. Their home is basically a bed lifted off the ground. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ They mostly live on milk and ground millet, as well as yogurt, sweet tea and occasionally the meat of a goat or sheep ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #wodaabe #bororo #mbororo #nomadic #nomads #chad #niger #gerewol #africa #davorrostuhar #LoveAroundTheWorld #travel #tchad #ndjamena #travelblog #voyaged #TLPicks #earthpics #withhumans #loveacrosscultures #LoveAroundTheWorld
The Wodaabe (also known as the Mbororo or Bororo) are a small subgroup of the Fulani ethnic group. They are traditionally nomadic cattle-herders and traders in the Sahel, with migrations stretching from southern Niger, through northern Nigeria, northeastern Cameroon, southwestern Chad, western region of the Central African Republic and the northeastern of the Democratic Republic of Congo. #ndjamena #chad #tchad #africa #davorrostuhar #lovearoundtheworld #wodaabe #bororo #mbororo #gerewol #ourstreets #streetleaks #people_infinity #withhumans #travelblog #travel #earthpics #voyaged #discoverearth #yourshotphotographer #passionpassport #wearepanagaea #breastfeeding #chasingafrica_ #okayafrica #africaboutik #africagrams #mybeautifullafrica #hadithiafrica #ig_africa

It was the year 1990. when a woman named Rebecca Lolosoli, fed up with violence that she witnessed since she was a young girl, along with several other women established 'Umoja' - women-only village. The village is a refuge for women fleeing abusive husbands and arranged marriages. Her mission is clear: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Maasai people have a strong patriarchal social structure. Many still follow the same lifestyle they have for centuries. Polygyny is widespread and marriages are arranged by the elders, often without consulting the bride. There is no upper limit on the number of wives, but according to Masai arithmetic, there should be around 200 head of cattle per family group (women with children). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Each wife has her own house which she builds by herself with the help from other women (only females are allowed to build the house). She is also responsible for fetching water, collecting firewood, raising the children, cooking and milking. Men are responsible for herding small livestock and improving the community's cattle stock through trades and bartering. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am wondering why do most of people often demonize Arab polygamy while praising Masai or Samburu warriors when women in those society have far fewer rights or no rights at all? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #loveacrosscultures #lovearoundtheworld #masai #maasai #masaai #masaimara #kenya #documentary #davorrostuhar #masaiculture #maasaiculture #masaimarriage #polygyny #polygamy #earthpics #voyaged #lensbible #TLPicks #discoverearth #okayafrica #africaboutik #africagrams #bbcafrica #bbctravel #worldcoours_people #wearepanagaea #africa #ig_africa

Ljubav oko svijeta

Raj u nama

Ne znam je li itko ikad putovao iz Čada u Kostariku, ali nama se to pokazalo kao odličan potez. U Čadu je kulminirala sva težina putovanja Afrikom, a naša sljedeća dionica na putovanju oko svijeta bit će SAD, gdje nas vjerojatno čekaju neki drugi, moderni izazovi. Kostarika nam baš dobro do...
