Over a sunny morning in Lisbon, someone told me that, somewhere in NY, in a sort of Botanical Garden, they try to preserve, at all costs, a rare plant, originally from Brazil. It was taken from Brazil to the USA and it changed with the geographical change. The leaves became gigantic and this plant became one of a kind, that came from Brazil but it’s neither from Brazil anymore nor from the USA. The botanical researchers in the Garden take care of this plant with admiration, this extremely special plant, taken from its place, its home, a plant that is now giant, in a limbo between something and nothing.

Over the same morning, someone told me about her difficulty of living between NY, Berlin and Lisbon. I remembered my past easiness to adapt everywhere. I would say, proudly, that my home was precisely as far as it could be from my actual home, somewhere in between different and – to me – unknown places. As the plant from Brazil in the USA, I have also changed with my relocations and feel each slight change with tachycardia. As the plant, I have also changed but maybe to much smaller than I once was.

Hello from Lisbon, Portugal! I love my nephews, my whole (it’s actually very small) family, my old and new friends, smiles, sincere laughs, nature, animals, cities, films, live music. I listen to Norberto Lobo, Pearl Jam, Pink Floyd, Tom Jobim, Thelonious Monk, Miles Davis. Makes me happy: to love and to be loved. I spent most of my free time: traveling

    A melhor parte é que escolhi um cassino que adoro. Jogar por muito tempo me deu muito conhecimento sobre isso. Inúmeros jogos para todos os gostos estão disponíveis em davbet https://davbetbr.com/ juntamente com grandes bônus e pagamentos rápidos. Vou jogar de novo e acho que todos que ainda não jogaram deveriam dar uma chance. A propósito, novos membros podem receber bônus ao se inscreverem. É crucial limitar o tempo de jogo.
