Life, Brazil and Resilience!!!
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 26 °C, hot and sunny. It is Sunday, and the second half of this toxic weekend. I had a misunderstanding with Yasmin yesterday, and today, the second part of the weekend will be with her mother; however, I did not know this yet. The morning began well; I exercised early at the end of Leme. Afterwards, […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 30 °C, hot, sunny and slightly cloudy. It is April, and today is April 1st, also known as April Fools’ Day. In Brazil, we refer to it as Dia da Mentira, which translates to “the day of the lie.” I can differentiate between a prank, a joke, and a lie to some extent. Regardless, it’s a […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 30 °C, hot, sunny, cloudy and unsettled. Friday is the eve of the weekend and, coincidently, the eve of the new month. It is also my birthday month, which has never been a great reference to me; it has only been in the last couple of years that I have given more importance to my birthday. […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 29 °C, hot, sunny, and slightly cloudy. This is the second or third day with zero funds. There is no money to eat, no money to buy anything, not even any money to catch a bus to collect money. Am I concerned? Yes, just a little. If it were 10 or 20 years ago, it would […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 29 °C, 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 a.m. The prognosis for the day is a lot of classes, study, and calm. The classes are obviously for work and money. If […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 30 °C, hot, sunny, and slightly cloudy. It was a hot, lazy day, and I had trouble sleeping the night before. My mind was preoccupied with thoughts about the next couple of months. Despite feeling tired, I was determined to wake up early and go outside to exercise. I arrived at the end of Leme a […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 29 °C, hot, sunny and slightly cloudy. In the past, Fridays were typically slow days, with extra classes for pupils or classes replacing cancelled ones. 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 […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 30 °C, 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 […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 28 °C, hot, sunny and slightly overcast. Everything was going well, and then Sunday. In the morning, I got up early, did a good workout at the end of Leme, and had coffee in the street before going home, and I would like to say that I have never been officially married. I have two mothers […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 30 °C, hot, sunny and slightly overcast. It’s a beautiful Saturday morning, 30 degrees, with a completely blue sky and no sign of rain. I love mornings, especially those in Rio. Rio is a wonderful city. I learned to appreciate it in the morning when I had the dogs, two boxers, Bruce and Petra. I would […]
