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: 6 degrees, cold, sunny and slightly overcast. I woke up Saturday morning after a deep sleep. I’m sleeping better here in England than I did in Brazil. Unfortunately, I missed my usual wake-up time, which is, at the latest, 6:00 a.m. I’m not sure if it’s due to the time difference or simply the accumulated tiredness from […]
