A day for the humble places where strangers rest, elders talk, children wait, and towns quietly reveal themselves.
Take stock of your family. This is the week you speak to the eldest members to record their history, discuss their childhood, learn their experiences, record their voice for future generations. And if you are fortunate to be a family elder, this is the week you open your heart and mind to preserve your history.
The last weekend at the dacha before winter. The garden is harvested, the preserves are lined up in the cellar, and the last tomatoes are eaten standing in the greenhouse. You lock the door, check the windows, and drive away knowing the dacha will wait. The car is full of potatoes and the heart is full of summer.
You encounter Turkmenistan's distinctive wildlife including the Central Asian cobra, Caspian seal, Persian leopard, and the wild Akhal-Teke horse breed in desert and steppe environments. You find that Turkmen families typically keep dogs, cats, and horses as essential pets and working animals. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
