Hello, fellow sleepy heads!
It's been a while since the last episode.. I hope you all were sleeping alright :)
Tonight, I am reading a story inspired from the Aboriginal stories that are available online. While I was taking a break from podcasting, I was in Australia and learned this precious powerful culture that still exists in this world.
The tale of Bunjil, the Great Eagle teaches us human beings a lot. And yet, I have to mention that as a person who was not born in Kulin tribes nor Australian land, I do not represent any of them. So my story tonight is created to respectfully collect the key essence of the story and lessons.
If you ever wonder about Aboriginal culture, I recommend you reaching out to the elders, academia, and so on.
Alright, bring your blanket and I hope you enjoy tonight's story.

Hello, fellow sleepy heads!
Happy One Year Anniversary to G'nitales!
Tonight, I am reading a sad and happy story. A story filled with the warmth that one life can bring. It doesn't matter whether we are small or big, ugly or beautiful, alive or dead, any life must be saved from injustice and feel the warmth in hands and hearts.
The story of the Happy Prince is from UK, written by Oscar Wilde in 1888.
Alright, bring your blanket and (maybe handkerchief too) I hope you enjoy tonight's story.

Long time no see! Our 24th tale is from Canada, one of the countries our lovely listeners are listening from.
I love reading native American folktales. In many stories, animals and natural elements are the characters explaining why to many wonders that exist in nature. And this story of Sparrow and the Rain is not the exception.

Hello, fellow sleepy heads!Happy 20th tale!!Tonight, we’re sharing the story from Greek mythology. Demeter and her daughter, Persephone, are the key characters in the story of the beginning of Spring and the concept of seasons. Hmm. Are you wondering how chaotic the origin of spring was? Any type of mythology is usually very chaotic, super natural and somewhat grouse at some level. But, please do not worry, as this story we share tonight is not so much of those harshness. it's suitable for a slumber story.

Hello, fellow sleepy heads!
Are you familiar with the stories of the little old people who live under the same roof with you?
Tonight, I would like to read a short story of Nisses (the old people who wear gray clothes and red pointy hats) from Svandinavian countries.
They dislike loud noises but they are believed to bring good fortune if they live under the same roof with you. If you keep your house quiet and peaceful, you may find some nice things when you wake up next day.
Alright, bring your blanket and I hope you enjoy tonight's story.

Hello, fellow sleepy heads! Our 12th tale is from New Zealand where offers unique culture of Māori and the influence of western components from the colonial-era.
