…And again hearts are frequently beating to waiting meeting…

It seems, one day Confucius said: "Don’t mind people don’t know you, but you should mind you don’t know people."
 All these years the Azia Dauysy festival has been happy place, where different people, different cultures, languages, minds have gathered together.
 Meeting each other, we all discovered the whole unknown worlds for ourselves, reached a clue of immense meaning "Human"…

I’d have called this festival as an island of ideal existing: no quarrel, no discord, only spirit of unity and harmony with nature, music and oneself.

Frankly wish everyone to get this impression of Azia Dauysy!
