Here I am, listening to the August playlist while I write yet another life update. You can listen and read while you see some food pics and know a little bit more about my month. I usually love the playlists I curate for August and specially September. I gather the songs throughout July-August, and that means they are a bit more positive. I am very emotion centered and that reflects in my art, my work and my everyday life. This…
Hello hello! Tune into the July playlist because July is a great month to chill and have fun. Music helps creating that soundtrack for Summer. Last month was a very Bridgerton month. Not only because the third season was out, but because I’ve been doing embroidery like crazy making a piece for an exhibition. The place where the piece is right now (until August 15th) is called Villa Idalina, in the North of Portugal. It is very Bridgerton too. Why…
Here’s your monthly update, this time it features London for the most part because I’ve spent half April walking and enjoying my first holidays in more than 10 years. Alas! It’s been a while also since I was in London, and this was my first time travelling alone there. It’s a whole other story. Tune into the playlist of the month while you read: I’ve spent most of my days going to museums to draw, and in between I tried…
Last month was full of food events and I am grateful for that because I’ve been missing my food people. I leave the playlist bellow so you can listen while you read. The whole experience by SÃlvia. The thing about eating food that you don’t cook is that, usually, restaurants and events center on flavour and pleasure and not always nutrition. I’ve been feeling my nutrients a bit on the low side, so I’ve tried to sneak in some fruit…
So here we are. Mid-March. February was tough for me in many ways: health issues in the family (blood and furry), a broken computer in the studio stopping us from recording our next album (top priority) and not being able to fix it for a while because it seemed like a different kind of problem, even for the experts. Also, very low energy and not too much time for doing anything else than solving problems. But this is your reminder…
Hey there! How was your January? I bring you the playlist first because I feel like we already have our own little ritual of listening to the tunes while writing/reading my blog posts. My January has been full of joy for the most part, then it became melancholic again. One can’t always be positive, I guess it’s the ebb and flow of life. Emotions are changing constantly. I don’t force happiness because I love melancholy as much as I do…
Hey! Did you miss me? I surely did. I’ve been focusing in other projects but the other day I felt the urge to come back here. To write in English about life and food. But as always, tune in your spotify and listen to my January Playlist. It comes with oldies. I felt nostalgic. I decided to come back to this monthly summaries. More as a check up than anything else. I really don’t focus my life on food that…
It’s February already and I am happy because I’ve just announced a new tour with Escuchando Elefantes Don’t forget the playlist of the month 🙂 It’s been a while since we’ve toured. A long while. We’re excited and busy. I’ve been incredibly busy during January. That’s a good thing to avoid the winter blues. But being busy always takes a toll on my body. This week I’ve been feeling the inflammation creeping up, so I am…
It’s the first month of 2023 and even though I’m a very optimistic person, I can’t help but feeling the winter blues. January is a dark month, even if in Yule the light won over darkness and days are becoming longer. Darkness and cold, but specially damp weather make me feel lethargic and sad. I don’t talk too much about Ayurveda or Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in here, although it’s a big passion of mine studying both. In Ayurveda, we…
In this post I’m going to dive a little deeper in topics that I’ve been reflecting for a while like individualism, celebrating and cultural appropriation. December is here and the only thing I can focus on is The Christmas Season. It’s everywhere. You know I’m all in for sustainability and don’t enjoy consumerism too much, but Christmas is supposed to be celebrated. No matter your religion. You don’t necessarily have to celebrate a Christian Christmas or any other religious holiday…
