This was very beautiful and meaningful, thank you for sharing.
This was a beautiful video. Thank you for sharing a part of your life. Traditions and cultures are very important and I think should be honoured and continued down the generations. If they aren't then history is forgotten. Without history there is no story or meaning behind things. You all looked beautiful in your traditional dress. I would ❤️ to learn more about your culture. Wishing you all the very best now and for the future. Many blessings from the UK x
Beautiful! I am so proud!
I see Noly !
