Life, Brazil and Resilience!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 7 degrees, cold, cloudy, and rainy. I have been in England for a little over two weeks now, and I am visiting places that are stuck in my memories from childhood and adolescence. Yesterday, I went to Mary Stevens Park and the house I shared when I was beginning my professional life and living alone. Today, I […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 13 degrees, cold, cloudy and slightly rainy. My mother had an end-of-year event at her spiritualist church, which she frequents. My mother is a medium. She studied and trained for many years and has lectured in different countries, not just in England, about spiritualism, clairvoyance, and mediumship for over twenty years. She’s doing less now because she […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 6 degrees, cold, overcast and rainy. I went to bed worrying about money and woke up without any problems. The morning was very foggy and extremely cold; I could feel it in my bones. I had a short walk to the canal to feed the ducks and swans. When I rattle my plastic container with their food, […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 6 degrees, cold, overcast and rainy. This is the beginning of my second working week in England, and it is raining all the time. I found a space in the rain to go out and feed the swans at the canal. On the way back, I stopped at the local cafe in the precinct on the green […]
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. Instead of going out for an early walk and not wanting to get confused by class times clashing with the time differences between England and Brazil, […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 3 degrees, cold, sunny and slightly overcast. I’ve spent almost a week in England, including four working days of giving classes here despite the below-zero temperatures outside. Another night of sleeping badly. I think I got up at least 20 times to go to the toilet. For some reason, I couldn’t get off to sleep. I only […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 4 degrees, cold, sunny and slightly overcast. I still struggle to get up as early as I would like. Last night, I didn’t sleep well. I don’t think it was due to the cold since the bed and bedroom are warm before I go to bed. Instead, I believe it stems from anxiety. I’m feeling quite anxious […]
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. In the morning, I got up relatively early at about 7:00 a.m. It is not a time to Rio de Janeiro standards at 4:30 or five, but I may get there shortly. As […]
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. The truth is that it has been raining all day- not heavy rain, just a drizzle, which has been just enough to keep me from going out. I […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 6 degrees, cold, sunny and slightly overcast. My mother had said the day before that she would like to buy me a coat, an anorak, because of the cold and rain due to the English weather. The idea was to visit the Marks and Spencer store at Merry Hill shopping centre to buy one. Maryhill is situated […]
