New discovering, "newly wounds"
This weekend I was on a short trip to one big city (second city in Sao Paulo state): Campinas. I was in the family house of one very nice guy (to whom I have great respect of what and how he is). Though I enjoyed the trip, there were some...small details, which put me into a small issue.
There are some things I would like to share with you concerning life here in Brazil. Unfortunately, I am now fully agreed with the statement: Brazil is made for guys with cars. If you do not have car here, and you want not only sit in one place - you have a trouble. That includes also the transportation inside the cities, not to mention getting to some nice places with nature etc. Unlike "european" style when the pedestrians can spend their time in the central part of the cities or in typically several parks or similar places, here everything is build in a way that is not convenient for a pedestrian (and in most places) for a biker. I would like to be clear, I do not say Brazil is bad, but just it is designed for specific group of people. It was not the best to find out considering my wish to remain without a driving license.
Also, I get a knowledge of one of the ways how the private houses organize their structure here. The agglomeration of houses that consider themselves as a partially closed called condominium. It has its own "public" structures (swimming pools, field for small football, tennis field etc...), walls, guards. Theoretically you can enter the condominium, but it can be rather hard if you are not going to one of its members. It is really nice inside though, no garbage on the streets, roads are nice, houses are exactly like in some old american movies, but unlike in movies they have its own design and personality in more expensive condominiums and looks similar in more cheap ones.
By the way, I was surprised knowing some of the prices...pretty darn expensive to live here (up to I would say absurd in some extreme cases).
Here are some nice (I think) images of the last weekend trip.
Also, I am taking a brief "vacation" from any internet activity. There's was a decision I made in the end of last year I am not sure it was correct. More time passing, more I getting into thought it was totally incorrect. And because of this I am kinda lost myself now, so...I am kinda do not know what would I want my life look like in the future. Therefore I've decided to restart my brain by changing habits. And one of them - is to sit in front of computer connected to Internet. That means I probably wouldn't post anything (unless I found more stuff about lifestyle in Brazil) neither be active in other services, and probably will ignore most of my mail correspondence. Therefore, I will need to ask you be patient and live me alone for some time. Thanks for understanding.
