Still truckin'
Hi there!
Life goes on...but I STILL do not understand Brasileiras!
I think Brasileiras must be the most jealous women in the world!
The best advice I can give Gringos who want to have Brasileira girlfriends, or perhaps aspire to marry one...don't cross them!
They make awesome partners in many ways, but they also make just as awesome enemies!
Fortaleza adventure has a new client coming to town next month and it looks like a couple more in May as the summer season unfolds north of the Equator.
If you have a friend who would like to see Fortaleza and what the Northeast of Brazil has to offer, please put them in touch.
The weather here right now tends to be a little sticky because it's the rainy season and there is more moisture in the air. Typically we get a couple of showers in the morning between 4.30-5.30am and then the rest of the day is sunny with a few clouds.
Sometimes there are days that are mostly cloudy, but they are very few.
You remember that Fortaleza is famous for having over 3000 hours of sunshine a year! If it's raining a lot that won't be happening.
Not too many tourists here now but I did meet Clarence from Portland and originally from Texas on the street right outside my building the other day. He was with another Texan named Rob who has been here for several months. Clarence was here a month ago and just came back for a couple of weeks. He is staying in the pousada just down the hill from my building. I'm surrounded by pousadas. There's one on the other side of the building as well.
One of the best pousadas in town is called Aquarius and is on Msgn Tabosa in Praia de Iracema. It's owned by Europeans who keep it extremely clean, and their cafe in the morning is terrific!
I have been doing a fair amount of voiceover work lately but it never seems to be enough.
I'm also working on a "podcast' and I'll tell you know more about that later.
Tchau for now!
