Day 59 | Almost Home and Nostalgic

Kudos to Andrea, a friend of a friend, that hooked up Dr Kizomba with a gold classic digital Casio watch #mykindagift.

Day 6 | Sleeping Beauty

Day 60 | Montreal, Are You Ready?

The struggle is over, the fun was necessary. 60 days of tears, joy and celebration. I had my last bacalhau at the airport and I took a piece with me just to be sure before I land to have a snack. I’ll close my eyes as I eat it and reminisce about my crazy experience […]

Day 67 | Feeling Pumped

Day 79 | Boston Was Unreal

Fell asleep in Boston, woke up in Montreal today. What a weekend. Saw a lot of old friends, met a lot of new people, that I am only able to see on Facebook and now I had the opportunity to see them live, in person. I gotta thank Wendy for organizing this event. It was […]

Day 8 | Reinvigorated

Man, this was a very scary week. But – it’s finishing with a lot of smiles and positivity. As some of you guys know, your boy was hospitalized this week bc of the long-term effects of some substances we don’t have to talk about here. I couldn’t make it to my plane to make it […]

Day 81 | Student Energy on High

Woke up this morning feeling kinda dizzy. Man, I’m in love with my students. 😍 🔹#kuduroMondays: Monday’s kuduro class was ah-maze-zing.
