 “Brought by the winds”  With legendary artist and rebel Mo Mohamed. Aruba 2018  “The spirit of the winds brought you here” - Mo Mohamed told me. - “But why?” - I asked. - “To take care of the “circle”.. so everything is the way it’s supposed to be...”  This man is the legend of Aruba and not just Aruba. Artist, musician, shaman, revolutionary and magic. His passport was torn.. But he accepts the blows of life with dignity and courage. He plays long-forgotten instruments and sings in his own language.   Lives without electricity and sleeps in a hammock... everyone knows him-from homeless to political figures. I lived with him, slept in a hammock and listened to his soul..

 French Guiana. 2018  “Devil’s Island”    On the devil’s island I will wait for thee,  He will hear my call across the seas... The winds will carry me to him, He would die himself, but rescue me....  Come here and take my hand, lets dance in eternity of these sands.  Drink the rum and me, feast on our lust with passion, Unchain yourself from this world, in a raw and wild fashion..  Steal the keys from the ravens claws,  Then come to my cell and destroy all locks and laws. .  Clutch my veins with all your soul, One more breath before the dawn, One step closer towards the fall... Here, we shall reign with Apollyon....  © Elena Levon. May 12 2018, Devils Island prison, French Guiana..

 “Into Unknown”  Solo journey into the most dangerous jungle in the world - The Darien Gap. Panama. 2018  There are still wild souls in the Darien Gap, who  run around jungle naked and free. There are still places that don’t see a  foreigner for many years. Places without churches, where tourism is  unknown and no one will be putting on a circus show for you, like they  do in La Palma, Mogue, La Chunga and other similar places.   There are  still pieces of life in the Darien, where you will be looked at as a  threat... there are still places in the Darien gap, where you will have  many misunderstandings and arguments with some locals, for trying to  take advantage of you on every turn...   There are still places in the  Darien jungle, where they will laugh at you for trying to feed their  dogs that are dying from starvation and diseases, beside the very feet  of their owners, even though owners themselves are well fed and a lot  are overweight.   There are, my friends, places in the Darien that will  make you laugh and cry, passionately and sometimes at the same time.  These places are for the brave and for the mad ones. Life in the not  touristy Darien will make you angry at times, lonely and helpless, but  these moments will also make you feel the most alive you ever felt — it  is because its all savage to the core and unapologetically honest with  you — the good, the bad and the truly ugly.   Darien will smack you in  your face with its truth and see how fast you break. The real Darien, is  very different from the one usually seen by foreigners. I am grateful  for every moment, for all the truth it showed me, without fear and  sugary lies.   Grateful for every blessing, for every lesson and for all  the love it showed me. Darien made me feel very strong and weak at the  same time... but most importantly — it made me feel alive.   And isn’t  that the reason we, the mad ones, fearlessly beat our dusty and worn-out  cowboy boots into the uncharted breath of this life — to feel alive?  Madly alive!   In the moment where your soul feels every twist of your  nerves and checkmates your ego, with one... little... push... © Elena  Levon
