The history of Trinidad begins in the early days of Spanish colonial rule, when in 1514 Captain Diego Velázquez founded a base for expeditions around the New World. It was from there, four years later, that Cortez sailed to conquer Mexico.
Dok sjede u sjenci verandi starih kolonijalnih kuća, obojenih plavo, žuto i ružičasto, stariji stanovnici Trinidada rado se prisjećaju priče iz najsrećnijeg perioda grada, koja se prenosi s generacije na generaciju. Događaj se zbio 1850. godine kada je brod natovaren francuskim namještajem uplovio u obližnju luku. Pošiljku je naručio Konde de Brunet, da bi opremio svoj novi dom na Plaza Major. Svi ljudi iz Trinidada koji su imali mazge bili su unajmljeni da prenesu dragocjeni teret duž puta koji je spajao luku i grad. Uveče su se svi okupili na trgu kako bi proslavili prispjeće ogledala s raskošnim pozlaćenim ramovima, postelja s baldahinima i porcelana iz Limoža. Danas su te dragocjenosti i drugi predmeti iz aristokratskih palata Trinidada izloženi u Museo romantiko u bivšoj Kasi Brunet. Oni savršeno ilustruju vrijeme kada je mali grad u centralnoj Kubi bio napredna oblast pod kontrolom gospodara šećerne trske.

“Pearl of Brazil”, “Black soul of Brazil”, “Jewel of Brazil”, there are many names that distinguish Salvador da Bahia as something special among all cities in Brazil.
“Perle Brasiliens”, “Schwarze Seele Brasiliens”, “Kleinod Brasiliens”, es gibt viele Bezeichnungen, durch die Salvador da Bahia unter allen Städten Brasiliens als etwas Besonderes herausgehoben wird. Einigkeit besteht darin, dass Salvador da Bahia mit seiner afrobrasilianischen Kultur und seinem kolonialen Erbe zu den schönsten Städten Brasiliens zählt. Auf jeden Fall ist es für mich die bunteste und lebendigste Stadt, die ich in Brasilien kennengelernt habe. In der nach Rio de Janeiro und São Paulo drittgrößten Stadt gibt es zahlreiche prächtige Kirchen, liebevoll restaurierte Kolonialhäuser, bunte Märkte mit bahianischem Kunsthandwerk sowie die religiösen und musikalischen Traditionen, die bis heute erhalten sind; achtzig Prozent der Einwohner von Salvador da Bahia haben afrikanische Vorfahren.
Is there a single member of the former guy’s inner circle who isn’t in deep legal doo-doo? First, there’s Giuliani whose home and office were raided by the FBI last week and who is in more than one pot of boiling water. Then there’s Jared Kusher whose apartment company has been charged with repeatedly violating state consumer protection laws by collecting debts without required licenses, charging tenants improper fees and misrepresenting the condition of rental units. Former Attorney General William Barr is being investigated for a possible conflict of interest in the case against heavy-equipment manufacturer Caterpillar Inc., and the list goes on. Hopefully, at the end of the day, charges and indictments come down against the former guy himself, for he is undoubtedly at the helm of most of these issues. It is my fondest hope to see the former guy in an orange jumpsuit and behind bars for…
A friend recently shared an article with me, “18 Things You Will Never Understand Until You Experience Them Yourself“. I tried to come up with something that we understand only after experiencing it. After a lot of brainstorming and experimenting, I have a practical answer. The beauty of the night sky is one such thing we realize only after experiencing it.
Finding a night sky is very difficult nowadays! There are some fortunate days when we travel outside of cities, on dark roads/forests. The mere sight of beautiful stars is soothing. If you don’t believe me, try it by yourself(travel to an isolated beach/forest/village and experience firsthand).
The ambient light we are wasting shooting in the sky harms us a lot. I recently read that light pollution is the only pollution we can clean up instantly! High time to take some action. If not for the…
Our story is ours to tell. We have to reclaim our right to speak our truth without taking into consideration how it would be perceived. We aren’t keepers of other peoples feelings and biases. We are all accountable to ourselves for whatever ills or good we disperse.
Your life has a value, do little bit of good where you are, that’s going to be worth living and being loved by the people surround you. Be courageous, this would be the quality of a warrior. Morning is the best time to raise our positive thoughts and affirm to be adorable and Creative. Have […]
China’s U.N. ambassador on Monday urged stronger diplomatic efforts to resolve the confrontation in Myanmar since the Feb. 1 military coup, warning that further violence could lead to a chaotic situation “and even a civil war.”
Zhang Jun also warned that “any wrong handling” might lead to further tension in Myanmar.
The U.N. Security Council on Friday strongly backed calls by Southeast Asian nations for an immediate cessation of violence and talks as a first step toward a solution following the military coup in Myanmar that ousted civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi and her party and reversed years of slow progress toward democracy.
The council again demanded the restoration of democracy and the release of all detainees including Suu Kyi and condemned the use of violence against peaceful protesters and the deaths of hundreds of civilians.
