Sao Paulo, I miss you!











I think my visit to SP during August was so incredible, that when I was flying to Dubai, I had a sudden crisis and started to cry rivers in the airplane. I was thinking that I am crazy to leave all I had back again: my family, my friends and my city, to start yet another adventure in some weird place of the world.
This is the video I saw in the Emirates airplane, that made me start the tears flood...

Sao Paulo is crazy!
















Sao Paulo is a crazy city, it happens day and night, it's chaotic. And we love it!

Sao Paulo is real!
















And especially after 5 months in fake Dubai, I realize how precious it is to live in a real city :)
Also my family is very important to me, and everyday it becomes more important. I feel guilty I left them to live still another time my dream to know the world, but we cannot have everything. But I will be back! I miss my nieces a lot too :)

Sao Paulo, I love you!
















Sao Paulo is a city of contrasts with more than 20 million people from every race and type. Old to new, ugly to beautiful, rich to poor, kitsh to good taste. And because it is the place I spent most of my life, I also found there very special and dear friends, who will be always with me somehow, wherever I might be.

Sao Paulo, I am yours!
















I stopped writing for a long time (since I moved to Dubai 5 months ago), and I just realized that one of the main reasons was: I had such a great time in Sao Paulo in August (I spent 3 weeks there before moving from Singapore to Dubai), that it was and it is difficult to describe all I felt being around my great friends and my family, and being in my country and city (which is wonderful, despite all problems it might have). For this reason I will not describe in details my visit to SP, but I can say it was one of the best moments of my life, and I miss you all deeply!
