Parabens brasileiros



 Back in Europe...with a tear in my heart. Of course I'm happy to be back home in England but also I'm deeply upset to have left Brazil. I've had such an intense few weeks down there, and that's been the main reason for the lack of posts too. I don't really talk about my personal life on my blog, but this time I wanted to share with everyone what I've been through and learned. Love, tears and samba. :) I've had the opportunity to attend Rio and Salvador's carnival, and to hang out with the nicest people in Sao Paulo. I wanted to give a big shout and thanks to all of you who have made my time down there unforgettable.. OBRIGADA!

Two days ago was my birthday and that same day Bruno Noveli  took this picture of myself at his studio in Sao Paulo with one his is work-in-process pieces. For some of you into art his name might ring a bell, and for those who don't know about him yet, this is a great time to check out his great work. He is a talented artist and an amazing person too. I wish him all the luck in the world and to keep the good work!


And of course...now that i'm a quarter brazilian at heart i wanted to share my fav song while in Salvador!

Fernanda Pozzi said...

Gala querida! I'm so happy you like my country Brazil! And it's so funny you called this song "Axe" and it's actually "Forró!" But you are totally forgiven and it's so cute when foreign people mistake things. Hope I meet you around one of those days.. =) Keep up with the good work and the awesome outfits.

Hola,

Soy fiel seguidor tuyo y de tu Blog, me encantas... Ahora, tengo un "problema", te seguía por Twitter hasta que he caído en que tus tweets no me salían en el muro... He ido a tu Twitter para volverte a seguir y me dice que has bloqueado mi cuenta... =S

¿Porqué si tanta gente te sigue yo no puedo? xD Mi usuario en Twitter es @aitorrs (Tampoco me deja enviarte un privado por TW para esto xD)

Hey, i'm the crazy guy from the elevator in the Salvador Hotel. Did you see our picture??? I discover a thing, your boyfriend in Brazil, is my friend. Really, ask him about Fabio Wilson (sic). I like know you. Pretty Girl kkk, back you to São Paulo fashion week??? Kisses

Ava said...

Gala!

I have experienced the same thing, Brazil is a full world on its own. I have spent one year there and you cannot imagine how I was when I came back home, in France.(Actually, who cannot be touched by this country?) It was horrible, literally. I was unable to put a foot outside during one week.
But thanks God, I have discovered this country and the things I have experienced I will keep in mind forever. (and of course I am goiiiing back!)

Now, you're gonna know how it is to be com saudade.

This is the first time I comment but this post on Brazil could not let me without saying anything.

ava said...

Galaaaaa!

I've just heard the music you posted! ah ah ah ah ! how funny. Actually I don't really like it but I am sure I would love to dance on it during the carnival because brazilian energy is so special and when I was there It was a pleasure to have a blast on this type of songs!
because you come from Spain, I am sure you understand the lyrics... Is there your brazilian boyfriend that was singing it to youuu? hé hé

Take care and go on !
