Brazil, Life and Perserverence!!!
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 28oC, warm, sunny, and slightly overcast. Tuesday is the third day of living in Flamengo with my ex-wife. Until now, everything has been OK, and it should still be in the early days. I get up early in Flamengo at 4:30 a.m. and am out in the street by 5:00 a.m. Today, I decided not to […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 28oC, warm, sunny, and slightly overcast. It’s my first Monday in this tiny flat with my daughter and ex-wife. I forgot to say that after exercising in Aterro de Flamengo, a public park, yesterday morning, I passed by Casa e Video, a utility DIY store. Luckily, it was open on a Sunday, so I could buy […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 27oC, warm, sunny, and slightly overcast. I have just slept my first night in Flamengo in the same flat with my fifteen-year-old daughter and my ex-wife. I got up early at about 5 p.m. and exercised at the local park. I also passed in the local Portuguese baker’s for a coffee and bread to take back. […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 26oC, normal, sunny and overcast. It is almost the end of the month, and it is very chilly and raining in the morning. I was unable to go out early to exercise; I had to do it at home. Technically speaking, exercising at home is more or less the same as exercising outside. However, going out, […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 27oC warm and Sunny. It is Thursday, and usually, on Thursday, I am tired. The accumulation of classes starts to hit me on a Thursday. Even so, I am happy because I have got to finish one more book I was reading. I have read two books in less than a month, and I am loving […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 27oC and sunny. It is Wednesday and half the week has gone and the middle point of the week. In the past, it was an excuse for me to do something like going out or at least drinking something: a couple of beers or a bottle of wine. Something to recognise that half the week has […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 29oC, hot, sunny, and slightly stormy. It is Monday, the first working day of the week. A quick workout in the morning due to time, as the first class is at 7:00 am. The prognosis for the day is a lot of classes, study, and calm. The classes are obviously for work and money. If I […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 29oC, hot, sunny and slightly cloudy. In the past, Fridays were typically slow days with extra classes for pupils or replacing cancelled classes. Today, I have a lot of classes for a Friday, 11 to be exact. It feels like a busy day, but at the same time, I struggle with feeling lazy. It’s like there’s […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 28oC, hot and sunny. It is the second day of autumn, and it is even warmer. Today’s temperature peaked at 34°C. When it is too hot, we become lethargic and do not want to do anything. I currently weigh between 95 and 96 kilos and hope to reach ninety-two before I travel. It has taken me […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 30oC, hot and sunny. Tuesday is a great day for early exercise, work, and a lot of classes and study. Over the past year, I’ve completed several web development courses and registered seven domains. It’s time to put my skills into action. One of my pupils is a skilled web designer, and I asked him to […]
