Brazil, Life and Perserverence!!!
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 25oC, warm, sunny and slightly overcast. It is Wednesday, and although the heat has cooled down a bit, we are still experiencing a heat wave. I woke up early to have a coffee and write in my journal. It’s very therapeutic to put my thoughts and feelings down on paper and express my future intentions. […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 21oC, warm, sunny and slightly cloudy. Saturday is usually a day for a heavy workout, and this morning was no different. However, my routine has changed a little on the weekends. I start my day by heading to the bakery. I go alone and without my training gear, and I enjoy a coffee or two while […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 26oC, hot, sunny and slightly cloudy. Last weekend was scorching, and today is no different. It will be 30+ degrees Celsius, which is a crazy high temperature for winter. My Facebook friends from England complain when it is 28 to 29 degrees in English summer, saying that their clothes are sticking to their bodies and it […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 28oC, hot and sunny. Today is a bit of a wasted day in some ways. Yesterday was a bank holiday, which means today, Friday, is also a bank holiday. Although it is not officially a holiday, most people will not work today to take advantage of a long weekend from Thursday to Sunday or Wednesday to […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 28oC, hot, sunny and slightly overcast. I’ve been taking Perola with me when I go to the park to work out more. She needs the exercise because when I arrived in Botafogo, she was extremely overweight for a dog. She was also taking corticosteroids because of her allergy problems. This issue is common with dogs, especially […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 28oC, hot, sunny and slightly overcast. It is Monday, and I have been blogging for two days now. I have posted three times, and I’m still on a roll – it’s been about a month, and I don’t intend to stop now. I wake up early and head to the bakery, waiting for it to open […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 28oC, hot, sunny and slightly overcast. I have been highly productive for the past two weeks, and it doesn’t seem that will change anytime soon. Ever since I received my Brazilian ID, everything has fallen into place. The first post officially completed the long process of getting my first website/blog up and running. I originally planned […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 22oC, cool, cloudy but slightly sunny. I got to resolve a big problem with the contact page of ‘The Long Gringo’. After hundreds of attempts, the hosting company fixed it within two minutes. I realised something was wrong with the webpage and the email account settings. I contacted the hosting company through their chat service, and […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 18oC, cool, heavy rain, grey and stormy. I am so proud of myself because of yesterday. I was able to finish 95% of the website. I’ve been having trouble resolving an issue with the contacts page on the website. I’ve conducted several tests, but when users fill out the form to send a message, the message […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 26oC, hottish, Sunny and a clear sky. My first goal for this week was to purchase my air ticket, which I accomplished yesterday. My second goal is to continue developing the websites. I have noticed that once you master how to use one WordPress theme, the procedures are basically the same for all the others. I […]
