MAY 6

On May 6, 2017 the International Blowing Bubbles Day will take place again! At many places all over the world and on several grounds there are going to be blown soap bubbles. For magic and fun, grieve and happiness, short term and lasting memories, individual and feeling part of the world community. If a butterfly can influence the world, what could happen when everybody is blowing bubbles at the same time? Join in, be a part of this event on May 6 2017 and send a description of your activities to us: info@fliplooyen.nl It could be that you was going to blow bubbles in the memory of someone, world peace or maybe for another personal reason. Everyone can join in, on one's balcony, boat, and garden, in the woods or in the street... Together with others or on your own. Feel welcome, unbound and light. Keep yourself up-to-date by checking this blog and subscribe and or like us on facebook!
