Just another WordPress.com site. Just call me Зои →. 2 Responses to “Pega senha”. March 15, 2011 at 11:14 am. Wow Sounds like a nightmare. If it makes you feel any better, I’ve been here in Brazil for eight months without a permanent visa (lawyers told us it would take two weeks) despite having a Brazilian husband and child. Technically, I’m living illegally! Even with all the troubles, it sounds like you are living a life much less ordinary than most! March 15, 2011 at 12:36 pm. I have to say that since...

Just another WordPress.com site. Just call me Зои. Russian Visa, check! Plane ticket with a convoluted itinerary (my modus operandi), check! I’ll be spending a long weekend in Miami at a friend’s house (the American wife of one of the B’s best friends who left Sao Paulo about a year ago) before going to Moscow the following Monday. This may or not be a good idea, as we tend to have a propensity to drink too many afternoon cocktails. So, until next time… from Russia! Sala de espera →. Enter your email add...

Who am I? What am I to you? | Uma vida legendada
https://umavidalegendada.wordpress.com/2011/08/15/who-am-i-what-am-i-to-you
Just another WordPress.com site. What am I to you? Finally the papers are all in Ottawa and if everything goes as planned I should have my passport (with visa! Back by the end of the week. Then I can see what this whole married thing is all about! All I can think about is my friend who did a case study of Finnish trailing spouses in China who all wound up joining AA from the drinking problem they developed due to all that extra time on their hands while the hubs were at work. What am I to you? Yes, Nina,...

August 12, 2015. August 13, 2015. After picking up a collection of short stories. On clearance at a bookstore earlier this year, I rediscovered a wealth of beauty in the novella. That seemingly random purchase taught me so much about the art of the short story and story anthologies. One source I read. The story of the salt and pepper lady whose mind got tricked. We entered the quiet suburban library to collect our summer of reading prizes after reaching the kids’ reading goals. A kindly middle-aged w...

Casa De Melo : November 2016

A little bit of everything from an American expat, her husband, and two kids trying to figure out life in GV, Brazil. How We Got Here. Tuesday, November 8, 2016. Of course the Olympics are over now - no Zika epidemic, no massive clash between Brazilians/spectators/police. Just one little false robbery story. Pretty good for South America's first Olympics! Farley takes his motorcycle everywhere, as many people do here, but I've been too afraid to learn how to drive it. However, I'm convinced that I co...

A little bit of everything from an American expat, her husband, and two kids trying to figure out life in GV, Brazil. How We Got Here. Sunday, March 20, 2016. The Great Immigration Post. Great as in volume, certainly not in excellence. I'm not going to share every detail of our immigration journey because, to be honest, it's personal and long. File a motion to reopen the case and repeal the ban and we would almost certainly win. But the Catch-22 is that the courts are so backed up. There are a lot of thi...

A little bit of everything from an American expat, her husband, and two kids trying to figure out life in GV, Brazil. How We Got Here. Tuesday, August 30, 2016. Corruption Culture, No One's Corrupt. In Brazil, there is an overwhelming mindset that corruption is rampant and ingrained in society all the way from the lowest government offices to include the DETRAN (DMV) up to the president. ( And, uh, if you're not paying attention, Brazil's president is currently involved in an impeachment trial. Plays a p...

Casa De Melo : January 2017
https://casademelobrazil.blogspot.com/2017_01_01_archive.html
A little bit of everything from an American expat, her husband, and two kids trying to figure out life in GV, Brazil. How We Got Here. Wednesday, January 25, 2017. I am reading a book called, "Congratulations, By The Way," by George Saunders. It's one of these reflection books, written by someone old and wise with the intention of passing on lessons to we, the young and green. In it, he writes, "What I regret most in my life are failures of kindness. I was floored. I instantly hated myself. I was...So, n...

A little bit of everything from an American expat, her husband, and two kids trying to figure out life in GV, Brazil. How We Got Here. Saturday, January 30, 2016. Zika - Part II. Rain, rain, go away! Moments before it was sunny and hot. The rain pops up suddenly and is pretty fierce. We squeegee the rooftop patio from time to time to remove freestanding water. The Dengue Police stickers found in every bathroom. The Dengue Police inspection sticker on the back of a bathroom door. Garbage waiting for pick ...
