🗓️ July 30th, 2025 • Day 2 of Documenting My Life ✍️
🏔️ I spent the weekend in Petrópolis, up in the mountains of Rio de Janeiro 🇧🇷 It was a nice change of scenery! My friends have a country house that they love to open to friends and family. It felt like a cute English cottage, except in the Brazilian countryside!
👩🏽❤️👩🏻 We were eight friends, spending all our time cooking, eating, baking, chatting, lazing in the sun, playing board games, reading, watching music videos on TV... It was a lot of fun ☺️
📖 Trying to finish The Dispossessed by Ursula Leguin. No idea why, but I had a tough time with the original English version, so I switched to the French translation. It's going better now, but I do feel guilty for not reading the original... Although I'm also guilty of reading French authors in English, does that cancel the sin?
"If a book were written all in numbers, it would be true. It would be just. Nothing said in words ever came out quite even." — The Dispossessed by Ursula Leguin
🎥: obsessed with Hasan Piker ⚒️ and his podcast with QT, Marche, Will, and Austin.
Highlights of the week
🌟 getting to spend some time in nature
🌟 back volunteering! I am teaching four classes for the NGO this week - yay!
🌟 used a public laundromat (REALLY public, not a shared-in-a-building-public type, a real one!) and that wasn't as bad as I thought it would be... yay?
