So long!

That's it I'm on vacation, but I'm not leaving the country, not even the state, I'm simply enjoying the city with my son. It's so good to have breakfast at 11 in the living room, I was really needing that. Today I'm going to try some organic ice creams and this weekend we have a gastronomic fair so stay tuned I'm taking a lot of pictures. My life has changed completely since I bought new headphones, I got Sony ones and I can get all the details of the music, it's such a bliss, I've been listening to this song and it's so good, the banjo makes me so happy! Enjoy it, in this video there is some lady dancing and it's pretty fun, it's exactly what I do I just don't have the courage to tape it! :)

Photo of the week!

This week I have decided to take some photos myself, it was a really sunny day here in Sao Paulo so I decided to go downtown via subway, got some really good headphones and spent my afternoon at this coffee place I really like, the little pleasures of life, coffee, bread, butter and music, what else do we need? Happy Sunday!

I'm the lucky one!

Between a lot of Artic Monkeys, my Itunes brought this song to me today, it made me think about my life and how luck I am and how beautiful life is and how awesome people can be. This video is really delicate, it put a smile on my face! Happy Wednesday! :)

40 Day Dream!

If you read this blog, you know I'm totally passionate about Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, I have all the albums and I listen their songs like crazy and it's hard for me to chose a favorite song, but this one in particular makes me so happy, I sing and dance when I listen to it and my heart gets filled with joy and love, that's the spirit right? I have hope they can come to Brazil, otherwise I will have to fly to LA to check them live. I love everything that comes from the US but I don't really see myself flying to United States, I have made new plans for 2014, I wanna go to Israel, never thought I would say that, but it's true, the good thing I can fly KLM and stop by Amsterdam. But who knows maybe I will be able to fly twice next year. Back to the song, if you feeling down, please check this out, it's like instant happiness!

I say reaching for Heaven is what I'm on Earth to do!

I would like to talk a little bit about God this week and Jesus had an amazing impact in my life this year, he showed me a new way, a glorious one, a garden full of flowers and fruits, he showed me that life is hard but beautiful to live anywhere, that home is where your love is and love is all around and I'm the living proof that God exists and that being part of a church, part of Jesus Christ community, does not make you boring or old. I still love music, to dance, to have fun, nothing changed just my way to view things, to face the problems, I enjoy praying and talking to my Lord, every single day. Take sometime to talk to God, He never let us down. Happy Monday!

Wear Sunscream!

I saw this very best video in 2005 and I was so affected by every word he says that I've been following his advice since then. I dance, I keep all my love letters, I get plenty of calcium, I enjoy my body and I'm not afraid of it and I wear sunscreen since I'm 20.  But something that really got me was being almost 40 and knowing that life is just beginning. Today I do everything I used to do but with more experience and more energy and I manage to do way more things because I sleep less, I wake up early, go sleep late, so I enjoy life more. I supposed to be a philosopher but I dropped school, I have way too much energy to stay thinking about life, but instead I multitask, everyday, and I'm always thinking about the meaning of my life. What I have learned is that I needed to let it go a lot of things and I did it, this year, and a great new life has opened for me, now I need to stop congratulating myself and stop thinking I'm awesome and get humble, that's what I need. But trust me, wear sunscreen and eye cream, take care of your face and your body, it's your post card. Life is hard, life isn't easy, thank God, otherwise it would be so boring. My point is life is all happiness if you put yourself into it.

Happy Sunday!

Just go on!

This is one of my favourite songs ever. I don't know how many times I have listened to this and and I saw Jack Johnson playing this song in Amsterdam - 2010 - and it was really magical for me, I can not never forget that feeling and that moment. I do not know what would I do without his songs. Lots of love JJ, mahalo!

The lyrics are so great, specially because it talks about getting nervous when you fly and about to letting it go:

I get nervous when I fly 
I'm used to walking with my feet 
Turbulence is like a sigh that I can't help but over think 
What is the purpose of my life
If it doesn't ever do 
With learning to let it go 
Live vicariously through you 
You can do the same 
It's the least you can do 
Cause it's a lonely little chain 
If you don't add to it

Boy!

It's like my Ipod knows me deeply, this is what I'm current listening to, lovely song - Magic Numbers - my favourite British band!

This is for a special friend of mine, that I truly care!

Have a great saturday folks!!!

Beach House!

What can I say about Beach House? They are awesome and I feel extremely relaxed when I listen to any of their songs.

This song is called The Hours and I'm re-posting this from my beloved friend Benjamin Karam.

We come back to heal ya!

Another cold day in São Paulo and again I'm in the mood for some Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros
This song is called Janglin and this live version makes me smile!

Be awesome!

When I grow up I wanna be like Bjork! This song is called One Day and this video is full of good vibes!

The Decemberists

So, here I was ordering my Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros's cd, at one my favorite book/cds stores - (Livraria da Vila, if you are in town)- and this super friendly salesperson called Juan introduced me to this awesome band. Yes, folk is my thing! Thanks a lot Ruan, lots of love!

Peace, Love and Happiness!

It's been a long time that I don't talk about this cute person Garrett! If you like harmonica, this is the guy!
Happy sunday! :)

Music is my Sanctuary!

This song is perfect for a Saturday night, to dance, to be happy and it says exactly what I think about music, it speaks to all, makes us think, it makes you smile, it's so lyrical and keep you in a trance! ;)
 Happy Saturday night folks!

Venus!

It's Friday - yes - and I'm listening to Anais Mitchell! Feeling happy! 

Thanks for the tip Luke, you rock!

It's my party and I cry If I want to!

No, it's not my birthday - I'm from June 1st - but today I'm celebrating the end of an era and the beginning of a new life.
Since it's a celebration I have to celebrate with these two guys who make my life so much happier and lighter!

This is part of La Blogotheque and it's just awesome, I pretty much watch all of them, if you never heard of, you should really check it out.

So one more time Kings of Convenience. Enjoy!

I got you!

This Monday is full of new good songs and this one is quite special for me, it's delicate, beautiful and it's from Jack Johnson!
In this video we can see how awesome and humble Jack can be, damn I love him! (as a fan Kim - no panic here :p)

Jack has a new album coming soon and he's on tour, if you like or love him like I do, take a look at his website.

Music Monday!

Here I was in the car - coming back from the beach - I'm kind of bored because I'm not driving and I love to drive. I hit my vimeo and look what I found! My favourite artist ever in my favourite city ever! Erlend Øye, playing acoustic inside a tram in Amsterdam! It made my day. Enjoy!

Edit: -The owner of this video does not allow us to embed the video, damn guy! 

Here it goes the link, then: http://vimeo.com/7229130. 

Happy Monday folks! :)

Quiet is still the new loud!

I have to start 2013 talking about MUSIC!!! I've been listening to these two guys since forever, they keep me company when I'm alone, I'm just crazy about them! I hope they can come back to Brazil, I still want to meet you guys!
