“…and we’re back!”
I’m a huge fan of google and therefore gmail, which is my favourite -mail account! And from time to time, when the internet connection has a problem they manage to show gmail users specific messages to let them know what’s happening, which I find very comforting! And this “…and we’re back!” is one of my favourites as it reminds me tv shows!
So my friends, after a week off flickr and blogs I’m officially back!
I really needed to take some time off, as this last week was of a huge importance to me! I was working in which I considered to be my one of the best job opportunities as I was working in a multinational consulting company, but as you also may know these firms are known to be quite… I really can’t find the word now… but I was finding really hard to have time for myself, and other parts in my life, which I consider to be as important as work. So, I kept looking and looking and finally decided to leave for good. So, what was once one of the best job opportunities, slowly transformed into something that didn’t respond to my needs… I guess age has these things… it changes your priorities.
I spent almost a week announcing everyone, and as I had to respect a line of hierarchy I had to wait until my last day at the office to tell all my friends that I was leaving. So, these last days were quite hard… as things were moving very slowly… and the anxiety was taking its place in me.
So, to fulfill my last job obligations I went to a training session in a beautiful place in Portugal with a friend, that I was suppose to teach, and we had two wonderful days! The city is about 140km away from Lisbon southeast, at this time of the year it is very very hot, and… do you remember me talking about Martinho da Vila, a brazilian singer?
Well, he was singing at the bull arena in that same city and… he was staying at our hotel… two rooms next to ours!!!
Ain’t I a lucky girl?
Just listen to this {sound}… I leave you with some pictures of that amazing place, in which actually I spent my birthday last year!!
See you in a while… as there’s {numbers editorial} next!
Take care, hugs & kisses!

Wow it's such an important step! But sometimes we really feel that although our career is important, there are other important things in life as well, such as friends, family. So I really have to congratulate you for your decision, which I imagine was not an easy one, since you also have made lots of friends among your colleges. But now you'll have more time for yourself and for your photos.
Happy new life :)

Thank you so much, Lil!!! I know that you understand perfectly what I meant when saying that I needed more time for myself, and of course this decision was also as a challenge to myself, to explore other things! I believe that somnetimes, with daily stress and rush, we forget about the other world that is out there behond that door! So, let's explore the world and find different doors! :)
Thank you so much for your support!
