Life in Brazil and Perserverence!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 8 degrees, cold, overcast, and rainy. I have been in England for 19 days now, and I’m having a whale of a time. Not a good time as in partying and going out every night, but a whale of a time in respect to being able to do all the things I had come to England to […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 1 degrees, cold, sunny, overcast and rainy. I’m trying to get up early here, like in Brazil, but it isn’t easy. At least the last two days, I have slept well.

Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 8 degrees, cold and rainy. It is my second day working remotely in England. It is good; there have been no hiccups until now.

Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 8 degrees, cold and rainy. It is the first working day since arriving in England. I wanted to go for a walk in the morning, but it was raining.

Rio de Janeiro: 32 degrees, hot, sunny and overcast. Today was meant to be the day I travelled, at least for the first leg. However, it has been delayed by a day for some reason, so I will now only be travelling tomorrow. As a result, I utilised my time effectively to tackle some minor tasks. In the morning, I […]
Rio de Janeiro: 25 degrees, overcast and rain. Today has been a pleasantly odd day. There has been a touch of productivity, but nothing like what I am accustomed to. In the morning, I went to the Portuguese bakery early, did my daily journal entry, drank two large black coffees, went home, and gave a couple of classes. Nothing out […]
Rio de Janeiro: 27 degrees, overcast and rain. What a great day and with a twist! It is a bank holiday, the third of three for November, and it is raining outside. I got my diary early and went straight to the Portuguese bakers to write and put in my entry for the day. A farewell lunch has been arranged […]
Rio de Janeiro: 27 degrees, hottish, sunny, overcast and unstable. It is the last Sunday before I go to England. The countdown is only three days away, and I have two days to do my online check-in. I took Perola for a walk in the morning. It had rained at night, but the streets and the park were already dry […]
