At 3:04 Marker I danced with the beautiful belly dancer Joanna. She's a gorgeous dancer I danced with before in an Arabian Party, many months ago. I wasn't sure if she would recognise me (been more than 10 months) and we danced for just a few minutes, but surprisingly she messaged me back on Instagram (I've shared the video on Instagram and tagged the restaurant) and sent me the dance videos we had together in the previous party! I was completely surprised! And interestingly she had a video of me on her Instagram asking others if anybody knows me. The restaurant name is Cairo Nights in Carlton, and they have belly dance shows every Friday and Saturday night for half an hour from 8:30pm to 9:00pm. Her Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joannangelidis/ Her Website (She's a professional belly dancer): https://www.joannabellydancer.com/ رستوران مصری، هر آخر هفته جمعه ها و شنبه ها به مدت نیم ساعت رقص عربی دارن. من با این خانم که اسمش جوانا هست قبلاً حدود ده ماه پیش رقصیده بودم توی یه پارتی عربی، و فکر نمیکردم منو یادش باشه چون کمتر از 5 دقیقه با هم رقصیدیم و شلوغ هم بود. ولی با کمال تعجب وقتی ویدئوی رقص رو توی اینستاگرام استوری کردم و رستوران رو تگ کردم، بهم پیام داد و چند تا ویدئو و عکس از مراسمی که با هم داشتیم و رقصی که باهم کردیم برام فرستاد! شوکه شده بودم، و توی اینستاگرامش حتی استوری کرده بود که اگه کسی منو میشناسه بهش پیام بده، خوشش اومده بود از رقصم. خلاصه قرار شد توی پارتی بعدی با هم برقصیم! #BellyDance #Arabic #Melbourne #Egyptian #Restaurant #Cafe #Bar #Show #Party #Middle #East #Belly #Dancer #رقص #عربی #مصری #سوری #عراقی #شرقی #رقاص #زن #دختر #خانم #رقصنده #شو #پارتی #رستوران #ملبورن #استرالیا #مهاجرت #تفریح
