Natacha
To these people who are dying out

A certain  time ago, when I was in MOSCOW, I crossed this tzigane woman at a station .I went to live with her in a gypsies camp in Saratov for three months.

``LET`S HAVE A 15 MINUTES LITTLE DREAM
INTO A SUCH TOUGHT, DRY WORLD.
WITH NATASHA THIS IMPREDICTIBLE, UNFORGETABLE RUSSIAN GYPSIE
SOMEWHERE BETWEEN MOSCOW AND SARATOV.``

Like she says,

``I WANT TO LIVE, I WANT TO STAY ALIVE AFTER LIFE, TO LIVE WELL, FREE.``

`` A WORLD WITHOUT TZIGANES IS LIKE A GARDEN WITHOUT FLOWERS``
