Paradise City: Sustainable music festival in Belgium

Paradise City Festival is one of the most popular, because of its green policy. It takes place every year in city Perk and it last for 3 days. Organizers have taken sustainability in terms of providing the greenest festival experience possible. Their mission is to show other people that large gatherings don’t have to be always associated with damaging the planet. They truly believe that people after a visit could implement some of the changes to their own lives. Moreover, Paradise City Festival acknowledges the costs of sustainability, adapting spaces and places to meet its mission with 10 step process: green energy, food, waste, water, awareness, paper, communication, CO2, camping and transport. They are all explained very precisely on their website. It’s just worth noticing that these 10 steps toward sustainability involve a lot more than simple carbon footprint reduction. They are mainly showing a walk toward a sustainable future, both within our matter and for the coming generations.

      Thanks for noticing, I'm really interested in those kind of stuff and sharing them with others. I know how important is that, especially nowadays, to educate yourself in that area.

    Apart from trying to be sustainable and promoting this idea, is it a regular festival? What is its theme - music, theatre, opera?

      It's music festival, for 3 days new bands and singers. You have an option to buy just 1 day all whole 3 day ticket. It's of course a matter of money that you want to spend.

Are Polish people polite and kind (compared to other Europeans)?

I honestly believe that Polish people are polite and kind. Despite deep rooted stereotypes. Poles in comparison to other Europeans are equally good. We are well mannered and sociable. But I think we have different approach to ourselves and to foreigners. We like to invite and welcome people to Poland. But when it comes to interactions between us, we sometimes act bitter. It’s just the matter of our culture. But I know from the experience that people from abroad usually say only nice things about Poles. We are known for our generosity and kindness. And it’s crucial to keep that opinion true.

Marilyn Monroe Painting By Andy Warhol For Sale

One of the most famous paintings of the even more famous artist Andy Warhol’s portrait of Marilyn Monroe (1962) will go on auction in May in New York. It is estimated for £150m and which will make Andy’s painting the most expensive 20th century artwork ever auctioned. In addition, the artist will become the greatest artist of the modern age therefore beating Pablo Picasso.  Personally, I consider Warhol as one of my favorite artists, so it’s hard for me not to be biased. I believe his artwork deserves to be valued highly. He was able to grasp a modern idea of art which can exist at the same time as the vastly-changing world of the 60’s, 70's and 80's. Also, people like to make little of his artwork into simple pop art, but he was a thinker, who lived way before his times. And the way that he changed the perception of the public about an artist in the culture is just remarkable. source:https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2022/apr/13/yours-for-200m-how-warhol-overtook-picass...

A Queen Barbie

The toy company Mattel has released a Barbie version of the Queen. The doll pays a tribute to the platinum jubilee and also celebrates the monarch's 96th birthday. And since the release there have been quite divided opinions about the doll.  The article states that the harmless toy became a true representation of the lower class women’s position in the UK . I would agree to some extent with the author. I believe that the doll serves as a reminder that being born to a wealthy and white family is a privilege. And people should remember that even though the Queen is privileged, she still has a hard job to do. She also didn't have a choice to which family she was born to. So in a way she is a good role model to younger people. But making a doll which represents a national treasure of the UK just seems off and unneeded.  source: https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/queen-jubliee-barbie-mattel-feminism-b2062393.html
