Each village has its own traditions. The village in which I live, is one of the traditions of the masquerade. Every year, february month for years, this event delights our locals in our small village Straza(Straja). The tradition is passed on from generation to generation and as it was my grandfather and father respected and I decided to honor it. Our little family of children and adults were split into small groups and each of us invent a theme on which will be masked. The procession goes around the village and people give gifts to us many good delicacies, such as eggs, sweets, chocolates ... We visit and our small rural schools and delight the little ones during the school day. Festive evening is organized ball, costume party in our modest ceremonial hall.
