A vida toda é saudade
Homesick/Saudade de São Paulo
I took this photo back in 2010. What I really like about christmas is to be with my family and sometimes I miss being with them.

“We don’t want a war. But we don’t believe that with love and peace anything is gonna change. We want unity and fight to achieve our ideals”
Google Brasil shows today letters voting. I should choose a mayor and a few other accomplices to get a better life thanks to our taxes. Even though I live abroad, the democracy in Brazil is obligatory to everyone, every Brazilian citizen over 18 and under 70 has ironically no choice but vote. You can null your vote, but you must go to where you vote (a consulate in my case) and do it so, otherwise you should prove why you didn’t or pay a fine as if the government was my parents. It is said, but what can you wait from a obligatory democracy? Not much actually, Brazil treats its citizens as if they were a bunch of kids. I wish there was someone for me to vote and change something for real. Who do we really work for? Who is interested in this “democracy”?
By now I can just think of violent riots, I’m sick of pacific protests.
