Van, Turkey (9 Jan, 2010)








After over a month of detoxication (borrowed this expression from Mroz), I was thirsty for a glass of beer. So I went to one of the two bars in this Kurdish city. A live band was playing modernised Kurdish songs which surely I didn't recognize any of them. After few songs people started to dance their traditional dance in the middle of the bar. They were holding hands and dancing in a circle in an intriguing rythm. Although I wasn't too crazy about the bar, the spontaneous dancing was absolutely a highlight of my day.
