  • A quick post about November event Brazil meets the world party.

    November was an exciting month. Besides preparations for the festivities, which seems to be many to my knowledge – Thanksgiving, Saint Nicolas, Christmas.

It was a gathering of three strange voices from different nations, yet a shared passion for music and entertainment. The event in Rotterdam merged musical styles from Brazil and Cabo Verde.

    While these incredible artists were having a break, refreshing their makeup, and changing outfits, I sneaked in to register my presence.

  • Happy Halloween to you!

    Great self-portrait, Happy Halloween photo! This was captured during a moment of confusion; we heard a noise coming from the circular object that one would assume is the moon, right?
    We were uncertain whether the sound was samba or salsa. Nevertheless, we do not know the answer as we were preoccupied with posing for the camera!

    I have heard that non-locals enjoy celebrating Halloween; indeed, it is true. I, for one, love it, and it is a great opportunity to socialise!
    I recently joined Internations and met some extraordinary individuals, including skilled professionals and experts.
    We may need to be proficient in Dusomeday’s language, but there is no greater pleasure than gathering in a comfortable location, which is unlike bars, restaurants or bistros. Although English is the common language, you will encounter people from all over the world. At times, we engage in conversations with someone from our native country or another individual who is eager to share their travel experiences.

    That is all for now. Suppose you are new to a country, make sure to find an expat site such as Internations to alleviate the feeling of loneliness.
    Wishing you a joyful Friday and a fabulous weekend. I am soon going to write about my first attempt at snowboarding.
