Arts Lab 5.0: Hassan Ghonim, Egypt - Month 4

This month has been eventful for me. 

Firstly, we went to visit the Metropolitan Cathedral in Iași to see the celebrations of the Christmas, after that, we finally obtained our residence permit in Romania after a long wait. Following that, some colleagues and I prepared for the Christmas holidays by deciding to explore Romania. We visited Cluj and Sibiu, and I found Sibiu particularly fascinating. The atmosphere and architecture, especially the windows of the houses that it looks like eyes, impressed me. We celebrated New Year's Eve in the center of Sibiu, where I discovered a fantastic Romanian band called 'LUPII' that delivered an amazing performance. 

After the holidays, we resumed work and went to Moldova school to start the workshops with the kids. It was an intense and interesting experience that stirred a range of feelings and emotions within me. I sincerely hope for a bright and beautiful future for all of them.
