This episode revolves around The Enchanted Forest - a workshop hosted by Casa Zemstvei and led by Iulia Pînzari. Initiated with the outbreak of war in Ukraine, the workshop was created to support refugee children through art and creative expression. Through its activities, children explore the world of senses, emotions, and imagination. On the day of the recording, the little ones were experimenting with essential oils, creating their own unique perfumes. Over time, the workshop became a welcoming space for all children, regardless of their background. The story captures the warmth of the space and the voices behind initiatives that bring comfort, joy and meaning through artistic experiences for the most vulnerable ones.
