New Moon in November

A kiss
Another kiss
Just a couple under the new moon

A kiss
I ´d love if that moment was forever
Another kiss

New Moon
New love
Renovation
Transformation
Everything old into the bin
Just new things
new thoughts
goals, objectives

A kiss

São Paulo old downtown

Dear friends, I went to old downtown last Friday and I took some photos from the Building Altino Arantes, that was the highest building in São Paulo city for 20 years. From the tower, from 161 metres, you can view in 360 degrees up to a distance of 40 kilometres the amazing urban site of São Paulo city. Enjoy the photos

I am back!

Dear friends, sorry for being so "absent". Nothing bad happened, I just needed time to think and think. Well, I would like to share some photos from Horto Florestal in São Paulo City in Brazil. After not going there for almost 4 years I got a bit upset; dirty lakes and a impression that the place was abandoned. Some old trees removed and where are they? No one says. Well, anyway, it is a nice place to go on Sunday morning.

Take care and have a very happy week

Start from scratch

This free poem or this group of words were inspired in a friend´s story whose life has started from scratch. It is interesting how love, patience and high self-steam can change a miserable life!


No words just pain
silence
IMPOSSIBLE to support
No

Completely LOST
Fear anger humilliation.....
Nothing to be said
Sad sad

Really sad
SADNESS
END

NOTHING IS FOREVER

KIND LOVE

LOVE PROJECTS LIFE
YES
YES
YES
PROJECTS
COLOURS TIME
LEARNING HOPE LOVE

SPACE

Empty space to start from scratch my life! I am happy now!

Campfire in Saint John Parties

Festas Juninas or June Parties are very common in Brazil. Last weekend I went to a campfire near a friend´s house, but I haven´t had the photos yet. However, I would like to post tonight because today it is the Saint John´s Day and it would be appropriate write something here. Firstly, the food of June Parties are marvellous ....matching to the winter here in Brazi. Secondly, in a big city as São Paulo city, families and friends prepare a campfire where people eat, sing and dance around it. In outskirts it is very commom to see campfires here and there in some houses. It is really warm, funny and romantic!

winter in São Paulo

Winter just will start next 23th June, but the temperatures here have been about 13 to 18 Celsius degrees. It is seems warm for my European friends, but for a tropical country is really cold. In fact, our winter is really "humid". Under a blanket and two duvets I felt myself, last week, as a new born baby...I couldn´t move myself with the burden of duvets. By the way, central heating is not so common here. However, food is perfect good in winter, especially Brazilian food.

I would like to share this picture with my friends: Cozinha na Roça, "Kitchen in the small farm" by Pedro Alexandrino Borges.

arts and crafts

It is nice to have a hobby to deal with the stress of life. I like painting in the wood for useful things such as small notebooks, boxes for fake jewels and true jewels. It is like writing, it is a catarse. Have a nice week!

Missing

She misses the bygone days
when they were together
sharing, feeling, loving
singing, cooking, dreaming
in real life...

Time has passed and then
more and more time...
She just has the memories
and all the feelings envolved with
