Back to old times...

This post is dedicated to Binha, a very good friend of mine:


Hey, you asked me to write a post about my adolescence...well here is:

When I was younger I wanted to be a rockstar. Playing cello was not my dream, and not my favourite instrument. But I learned some music theory. I used to hang out with some friends at school, and some day we decided to start a band. I quited playing cello, and started to took some bass clases. Obviously it didn't work, but it was quite interesting, and it kept us dreaming. After some months, I started University and I never heard again of those old friends. Nevermind.
I continued playing bass during my studies but never too seriously, until one day I started another band with some other friends. This one was better, because we really tried to play some pieces, and we were a bit better.
Diving in internet I found my old band website. If someone asks me for the address I'll give, but i'm not posting it here, because I don't know if the other members are alright with this...(some pictures are really old!)


Well, after some years, I decided to start my adventure abroad, so I went to Brest to finish my studies. Then to Paris, and there, I had the pleasure of start a new band with some good friends. I think this band was my most complete experience as a rock amateur. We were really good friends and we played well. I still have some records we made, but as I said before, I'm not posting them because I don't have any permission from the others.


Last summer (european summer) we quitted the band, because everyone one of us took a different way. Now i'm in Brazil...will I start another band?

Bon profit!


Bon dia everybody!
This is the "Fakejoada". It's an hommage to the brazilian Feijoada, but since I didn't knew how to prepare it, I managed to cook something that has nothing to do with the original...nevermind, it was delicious anyway (i hope). I put a big amount of love to do it. If someone of you wants to imitate me, I recommend you to read the recipe first, and then decide if you want to cook some n'importe quoi or a real feijoada. I'll give you the ingredients i used:
-Feijao preto: Black beans, i used a glass full of beans per person.
-1/2 kg of grounded meat
-1 onion
-1 green pepper (optional)
-A lot of love

Bons...presagis?

Hello again!
Every friday I saw the same message on my cell phone. The first time i saw it, it was quite funny because i didn't realized what it meaned. But soon I understood. It's not that my phone reminds me to have sex on the March 6, but that march 6 is friday, SEXta feira in portuguese!
Making a post only to say that seems very stupid, but while you're reading this, I have another reader on my account...hehehehehe
Have a nice weekend!

Back to life!


Olà!
After some weeks of silence, today your favourite (or not...) blog comes back to your lifes. As most of you know, I'm in the best country of the world, and for sure is not The Vatican, I mean Brazil!
Since I arrived, i had no time to write anything because I have been trying to discover this huge megalopolis. You can find more information about this city here.

I met some really interesting people here who showed me the city, and some good spots there. One of my favourite thing about brazilians, is the food. You can eat whatever you can...i mean whathever you want.
In next posts I'll tell you some interesting things about Brazil, and of course about my adventures and travels there. So see you!
