  COUNTRY LINE DANCING: MUSIC, FREEDOM AND SOUTHWESTERN SUNSET WHAT THE COWGIRLS DO ? “My kind of country is the clear, pure, old-fashioned kind, emotional and gutsy and also sentimental. The songs tell about real human problems – love and the pain of heartbreak and loss – in a way that shows you that the singer is no stranger to pain, and is tough enough to suffer and survive.” ―  Reba McEntire, Reba ´My Story`        I have always been a cowgirl…even thousand miles far away from real and raw South-western America, I still consider myself as American girl from field, with love for cowboys, hats, outlaw tales and those golden sunsets in the little forgotten towns.  I was born as a city girl of Europe but my blood has been always coloured with neon moon of American  Wild West.  When I was enough young, I tried to write country song lyrics and promised myself I will never give up trying to get to Tennessee and give my talent for country music. No, not as one of many great country music s

  THE GOLDEN TENNESSEE – AMERICA AT ITS BEST FROM JACK DANIEL’S WHISKEY AND DAVY CROCKETT TO THE REELFOOT LAKE AND LOVELY COUNTRY MUSIC      You do not need to love country music to know that  Nashville is the birthplace of the best American country music. It is a Music City and the rhythm of good vibes is everywhere. While we are testing the bit of southern original Whiskey in the Bluebird Café, we can enjoy the performance of the coming generations of songwriters and their icons of country wave.  Almost everyone in this city has something to do with music, whiskey or honey. Maybe Nashville is the heart of Tennessee but this Volunteer State has a long list of charming attributes that are attracting people from all over the world. In other words, American native roots give the most beautiful colours to this southern state.      The old Yuchi Indian word  “Tana-see”  means actually “The Meeting Place” so does not surprise the amount of visitors that meet the glorious Tennessee, searchin

  THE OLD-LINE STATE: MARYLAND, MY MARYLAND BLACK EYED SUSAN, BLUE CRAB AND OCEAN CITIES   “The sea, for me, is where I long to be.” -Brandi Fitzgerald        I do not know how I get there but I know I have somehow always been there, in Maryland. My heart has recognized it, in spite of fact that I have never been related to this small east coast state that separates Virginia and Pennsylvania. Maryland is cute, unique and colorful, embraced by West Virginia and District of Columbia but kissed by Chesapeake Bay. The ocean beauty is breathtaking in this soul of Colonial America, the place where every tales begins and never ends.      It is said that there is no such a place like Maryland, gifted with long beaches of its Eastern Shore, mystical, exciting hiking trails and hidden waterfalls in the dark wood of the Appalachian Mountains. Whatever we can imagine, it is over there, waiting to be discovered and captured with our positive vibes. The whole America is beautiful but Maryland is eve

VERMONT:GREEN MOUNTAIN OF MAPLE SYRUP MY JEWEL STATE      I must go to Vermont, if not now then immediately after. Since I was a child, I was dreaming about going and staying in Vermont, forever. Why? Because this 14th American state talks the language of my soul, plays the melody of my heart and I cant anything but merging with this beautiful green mountain that has been founded in 1777 as the Vermont Republic, operated as post office and had its own currency known as Vermont coppers.      Some friend of mine brought me the maple syrup from Vermont and then I learnt that this amazing American jewel state is the largest producer of maple syrup in the USA with more than 500,000 gallons in year. It is very interesting to keep in mind that sugar maple needs about 40 years to be able to give something, anything. Furthermore, the production of just one single gallon of maple syrup requires more than 40 gallons of sap. Then, there is your delicious syrup for pancakes but the difficult realit
