Kukeri 2024, Pernik Bulgaria. One of the largest mask festival in Europe! The mask festival typically takes place in late winter, just before the arrival of Spring. The costumes worn by kukeri are meticulously crafted with unique designs and symbols, each carrying its own significance. Through their dances, chants and theatrical performances. It is believe to chase the evil forces and bring blessings for the upcoming year.
London Standsted Airport at night, busy and crowded. #nomadlife#nomadlifestyle#london#londonairport#standsted
Bourton-On-The-Water, a lovely village in Cotswolds. Spring is the best time to visit. It's magical. #bourtononthewater #springcotswolds#springtime#villageincotswolds#cotswolds
These ladies were giving away fresh baked bread to the crowd.The bread is one of the props, a symbol of prosperity.
At night they had a nice fireworks, the Pernik municipality also invited guests, sang traditional songs. The crowd started to form a circle and danced horo, lots of footworks and jumping. It was cold some were also drinking rakiya( a homemade brandy ) to keep them warm.
Kukeri was a 3 day event, was impressed with the peace and order of the locals. Nobody was screaming or fighting. No one was reported injured, it just pure fun and respecting everyone. The most safest mask festival in Europe!!!

This boy smiled back at me! Watch until the end. Adorable. I didn't have a chance to ask his mom's permission. Hope she doesn't mind if I post this. 😚😍
These kids are amazing!!!
Snow and cold can't stop them. Today is the last day of kukeri, Surva festival in Pernik Bulgaria
Amazing event! It's also reminds me of junkanoo in the Bahamas, a street parade dance, wearing their colorful costumes,with lively music. In the Philippines we also have Ati atihan. Different countries, different traditions in their own meaningful way.

Kukeri Pernik. Surva Carnival at Pernik, Bulgaria
This is an annual festival, Suvra Carnival, famous in Pernik town 30 km from Sofia. There are 120 Kukeri groups, from different places in Bulgaria. There are 15 groups from different countries, Serbia, Greece, Italy, Macedonia, and Montenegro. Each group acts and tells a story.
The kukeri are dressed in fur from wild animals, scary masks, and huge bells tied to their waist. So when they dance the bells make a lot of noise. The purpose of Kukeri is to chase away bad spirits.
Today, a lot of youngsters from different schools participated. They did well, with more energy and enthusiasm.
They also visit houses, dance with drums and music, and wish the family a good harvest, health, and prosperity.
