Hello readers,
(….. and we hope to read your comments)
Its my Sunday afternoon and it has been raining and I´ve been home cozy and warm and reading and LOVING IT! Its just so great to stay home and doing the things I like to do. I dont like going to the beach. I love rainy and cold days (as long as I dont feel cold, of course). I am a “carioca” who doesnt not fit into Rio´s typical way of life. I feel like an alien in Rio. I always felt different and maybe this is why my LOVE is a forigner.
I decided to post this few words to thank my husband for his lovely friends. Cam has such nice friends (except for the Turkish one….) and I like them so so much. And I cant wait to meet Gerald & Debbie, Jacqui, the rest of the Polish family and French Lucie. Did I forget anyone??? Except for the Turkish one, all Cam´s friends are welcome to consider myself a friend. Thank you very much.
This last Thursday I started reading a very nice book (which is a best seller) called “Eat Pray Love” (Elizabeth Gilbert). Its a soul searching kind of book, but nothing like the traditional self help ones. The author describe the year she spent in Italy, India and Indonesia recovering from a very bad divorce, a depression and identity crises. The way she tells the story, describing the places, situations and people catch your attention as much as the way she describes her feelings and the inner changes are really touching and makes you think about what your doing with your own life. PS: last night I finshed the book (Eat Pray Love) and it was interesting to see that the author falls in love with a brazilian man – looks like they are in a relashionship.
I have to confess my favorite kind of books are the ones about independent women living, working, loving and having babies – all in a comic style story. Example: Devil Wears Prada, Shopaholic series, When in Rome, Bridget Jones, Olivia Joules, etc, etc, etc….
Oh! How good it feels not having to go anywhere! It would be perfect if Cam was here with me now.
