My life in Havaianas: Looking ahead
http://www.mylifeinhavaianas.com/2015/07/looking-ahead.html
Sunday, July 19, 2015. At the end of this post. I alluded to potential change on the horizon. At that time, I was one month deep in an investigative and list-making frenzy, mulling over a possible career change that would take me back to Porto Alegre, Brazil in mid-2015. A colleague who oversees an international school approached me with the opportunity to start a development office: the possibilities seemed almost overwhelming. Here we are. I leave tomorrow. I will try to document thoughts and anecdotes...

My life in Havaianas: Rio: 1/1/11
http://www.mylifeinhavaianas.com/2011/01/rio-1111.html
Saturday, January 1, 2011. The day before New Years Eve I had the pleasure, and I mean that sincerely, of taking a lengthy and expensive taxi ride from. Opposite my inauspicious welcome to Rio, this time, the driver was upfront about the price and the alternate routes (my choice: scenic or economical? I opted for the scenic, coastal drive, 'cuz, you know,. On account of the spectacular view.). Onward. Shelley and Rafael have a sweet pad in front of. Lovely. Fantastic location. Perfect for our. Então, len...

My life in Havaianas: August 2011
http://www.mylifeinhavaianas.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 9, 2011. Live the life you want to live. (Part 2). I had hoped I'd have some words of wisdom to wrap up the blog before I depart. I don't. Partly because I've been too busy with the preparations, and partly because there are so many divergent thoughts whirring in my head that I don't know yet, myself, what to make of them. One of my favorite sights on Avenida Paulista. Well, I've satiated myself, again, for the time being. I did adapt- to crime, to "the system," and to machismo. I've enjo...

http://www.mylifeinhavaianas.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 28, 2011. Remember that scene in The Goonies where Sloth is screaming for chocolate. Yeah, this post is for my cousin Beth and her passion for "CAKE! This is Les Delices de Maya. And she's not exaggerating. Marcelo runs the front-of-house operations. He remembers my name, and everyone else's, every time, no matter how long it's been between visits. He pauses for a bit of small chat, engagingly and sincerely, with every table, despite having much to do during the lunchtime rush. With a laye...

My life in Havaianas: December 2014
http://www.mylifeinhavaianas.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Thank you, 2014. 2014 has been a good year for me and I am grateful. After a rough re-entry to the US, I find myself feeling comfortable. For the first time in years. Truly content. For, perhaps, the first time ever. Settled in my cool, sunny, South Loop apartment. I work alongside a truly sophisticated and admirable leader, in an incredibly stimulating environment. I went to Portugal and am infatuated with Lisboa. I visited my brother's new digs in Utah. But there is buildi...

My life in Havaianas: Day one, again
http://www.mylifeinhavaianas.com/2009/01/day-one-again.html
Tuesday, January 6, 2009. Day one, again. My time away from the internet was good for the soul—like the salt water of the Atlantic and being drenched in sunshine on Joaquina. Beach in Florianópolis, where Stacee and I enjoyed a peaceful seven days. Well, mostly peaceful, but peppered with moments of zesty behavior too… like when Stacee tried sandboarding. Video I would be doing a disservice to our fifteen years of humor-filled friendship. We returned to Porto Alegre on Friday. The city was vacant of ...

My life in Havaianas: November 2011
http://www.mylifeinhavaianas.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 4, 2011. Since I'm back in São Paulo, I figured it was fitting to write a little post(-move) post. I arrived yesterday and made a quick stop at Polícia Federal. At Guarulhos airport on the off chance they could stamp my protocolo. Temporary identification) with a six-month extension- the reason for this quick trip. No dice. Thanks to my thoughtful landlord, Dona Maria, I settled in to my beloved Pinheiros. My schedule was out-of-whack and. And set out for the. I was only at the DPF.
