Henrik told me that all the H & M stores in Europe, have "100% Brazil" as their theme this season. So I checked out their site, and it was all about Rio. It was fun to see the pictures, movies and play the little games they have there. All of the pics were taken in Ipanema, not far from where I live. The people in the pics below are Brazilian ( Read more... )

Tchau,

Long time no see.

Weren't you in Brazil a couple of years ago? I remember I wanted to send you a message, but I didn't have your e-mail address. Where are you now?

I'm glad to hear from you again.

Abraços.
Tchau :)

I've been quiet, sorry. . . ex_darshan119 June 1 2004, 21:57:50 UTC
I've been twice since 1999. . .

I am trying to make it this year for the premier of my friend's documentary on Evandro Teixiera in August. . . You may or may not have seen the press for it.

I am still in Southern California for right now. . .

Yeah, sorry I haven't been so chatty, but I always have my eyes on my favorite cariocas. . .

Contact me anytime by e-mail: darshan@livejournal.com

I promise to be more chatty in the future. . .

Peace,

You're from Singapore right? I wanna visit one day :)

I sometimes wish that our beaches were more quiet and less crowded. But we have some pretty nice deserted beaches that are not too far from here. I'm just too lazy to go there.

It has been so chilly in Rio, that we can't even think about going to the beach now. It's starting to feel like winter.

Where were you in the pictures? arzaggio June 1 2004, 19:38:16 UTC
I love H&M it's a great store, there are 3 H&M's in Nyc and one in jersey near me. It's also inexpensive that's why I like to shop there.

In addition, you must teach me nice words in Portuguese, all the Brazilian/Portuguese kids are teaching me the curses and they won't teach me the normal words, they get so many kicks out of this white dude trying to pronounce Portuguese dirty phrases. haha

Then I'll keep talking about it. Maybe if I talk about it 24/7 you'll come soon, like tomorrow? Maybe? haha
You seem to be cool to hang out with =)
