What’s your favourite song(s) to sing/hum?
Any piece of music that touches my heart and makes me laugh or cry instantly becomes a favourite one.
Growing up, I was influenced by my parents and I still like some Beatles songs , ‘JOVEM GUARDA’ ( It translates literally as "young guard". It could be interpreted as "vanguard".- says Google). As a child, I loved the naïve songs with light, romantic lyrics aimed at teenagers; Also BOSSA NOVA (Google says again: one of the best-known Brazilian music genres abroad. The phrase bossa nova means literally "new trend" or "new wave". LOVE The girl from Ipanema and similar sounds by Tom Jobim, Elis Regina, João Gilberto. Soft rock ‘n’ roll. International music mainly ballads with lyrics I only got later as I began studying English. Oh, and Sinatra.
When I became a teen in the 90′, Brazilian Pop music (MPB), soft rock’n’roll. A sudden passion for Classical Music (forever in love with Beethoven), international ballads and some bands: Pearl Jam, Guns’ n roses. Colplay ; Hits from 007 movies. STILL can’t memorize the names of the songs to save my life!
Once in a Guns concert, I actually said : ‘ OH! THEY play THIS ONE!!!!! Yes, crazy Luciana (me) had discovered AMERICA AGAIN :) Same in Carnegie Hall with Audra McDonald “That Naomi from PRIVATE PRACTICE?!)
Currently in Adele, Paloma Faith.....love THE BLACKLIST sountrack!
Call me : THAT LADY WHO NEVER GIVES PROPER CREDIT TO MANY SINGERS AND BANDS BECAUSE SHE NEVER KNOWS THEIR NAMES.
I LOVE MUSIC THAT MAKES MY HEART SKIP A BEAT sums it up quite well.
What are your favourite flowers/trees/plants? Saintpaulias, commonly known as African violets . Love them in deep purple, pink and white.
Favourite colour(s)? Black
What do you always doodle (if you ever do)? I don’t doodle. I make sketches sometimes as I am a landscaping architect and have THAT IDEA or I am stuck (napkins are my drawing board for the dismay of many waiters.
How do you take your coffee/tea? If you don’t like those what’s your fav warm drink? Tea. No sugar. Green. Or hot chocolate....once a chocoholic always a chocoholic.
Favourite candle scent? Rosemary.
Sunrise or sunset? SUNSET!!!!!! Hate getting up early, although I have to . Sunset is closer to SLEEP :)
What perfume do you wear if any? Chanel no5, 212; Sensi by Armani used to be my favorite but has been discontinued. The apple one from Nina Ricci. Dior sometimes.
What’s your go to dance move when you’re alone? Love rythms....to tap my fingers. Terrible hopeless dancer.
Favourite quote? Many but recently: True love grows.
No idea who wrote it (for a change) but once seen on a Tiffany & Co email it was true love.
Favourite self care thing(s) or routine(s)? Going from monster to human by means of carefully aplied make up and fancy clothes. Oh, high heels always, I am short.

What does your happy place look like?
My bed. Anytime, literally.

Favourite breed of dog? YORKIES!
Do you ever want to be married? If so what colours would you pick for your wedding theme? One of my goals in life but the groom is MIA, I am 40 and spending too much in therapy to plan a wedding. I would never wear a WHITE bridal dress. This I know.

Silk or lace? Silk.
Favourite weather? Cold and preferably in bed.

Hannah, my very smart yorkie.....well, when REDDINGTON shows up...
Indeed......a picture is worth way more than a thousand words, sweet Hannah.
Ah, MOM agrees, kiddo.
Hannah, my yorkie, watching ‘Liz kneeling for cockroach on TBL’.
Okay, Hannah, every single time the cockroach appears.....to destroy other characters!
Where has THAT gone? That was the show known as THE BLACKLIST.
Baby? Labor? Hiatus?
That’s......low and quite disgusting..
They are exploiting MB’s real due date. TBL, or whatever, will be back when news of MB’s delivery hits the press.
