Emile Ghessen Stories of modern conflict... 45 Days: The Fight For A Nation
Emile Ghessen currently in Ukraine documenting and reporting from Kiev... much like he has done from Nagorno-Karabakh in 2020 Follow him on Instagram and you'll have a better understanding of what's going on in the country at the moment! "I have been in war zones since the age of 18 fighting and now filming them, and this recent war was very different for me. It was a war of David vs Goliath in the sense of the contrast in equipment and technology on the battlefield between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Making this feature film has been an emotional rollercoaster for me, but I’m very proud of “45 Days” capturing history in the making."

So educational
I just started getting into listening to podcasts. And had no idea there were podcasts for floral! I’m enjoying it and learning during a pandemic.
Fantastic interviews with Floral Designers
Anahit interviews industry leaders in floral design. She asks all the questions you wish you could ask and some that you wouldn’t think to ask, but glad she did. She keeps the conversation real, and I love that these interviews are unedited, yet the conversation flows easily as if she were chatting to a friend. I always come away with a few nuggets of information or inspiration and a greater feeling of intimacy of the designers, many of whom I was already following. I look forward to many more episodes. May I suggest Sue Davis, Sarah Cambell, Toby Nelson, and Gregor Lersch as some of the next guests.
This is soooo good!!!
I love this so much, what a refreshing outlook on floral business!
