You know those items on your “to do list” which keeps
getting pushed to the next day, next week, next month?
Well, one of mine was “Sorting, editing and printing photos
from our mini-break in Melbourne”
After reading this awesome article from dear fellow photographer Bianca Dopson
I finally got the motivational nudge I so needed to start.
As Matt and I prepare for yet another long period apart,
I do believe these images will bring us strength and a smile
when things get tough.
Sabem aqueles items na lista de coisas a serem feitas
que sempre acabam sendo deixados pro dia, semana ou até mês seguinte?
Um dos meus é a tarefa de “Selecionar, editar e imprimir fotos da nossa
mini férias em Melbourne”.
Após ler esse fantástico artigo escrito pela querida colega Bianca Dopson
eu finalmente achei a motivação que estava faltando.
Enquando Matt e eu nos preparamos para mais um
longo período longe um do outro, acredito que essas imagens
nos trará força e sorrisos quando a saudade apertar.

Shaky start, overwhelming feelings of uncertainty,
fear and melancholy as we prepare to be apart for months yet again.
No one said it would be easy.
Nobody told me there’d be days like these.

Fancy Christmas in March?
When your family lives all the way on the other side of the world
and send you a parcel over Christmas it will most likely take forever to get to its destination.
Well, it finally got here last Thursday but I had strict instructions
“NOT TO OPEN” it until our weekly Skype chat.
Can I hear temptation?
I actually had to hide the box from my sight to resist =}
Que tal Natal em Março?
Quando sua família mora no outro lado do mundo
e te manda uma encomenda no Natal, muito provavelmente vai demorar séculos
para chegar ao seu destino final.
Bom, finalmente recebi a encomenda na última Quinta-Feira mas tinha
instruções específicas para “NÃO ABRIR” até nossa conversa semanal por Skype.
Tentação? Magina!!
Tive que esconder a caixa para resistir!
Behold, my dear friends.
You’re about to witness love in the form of little treasures.
Atenção, queridos amigos.
Vocês estão prestes a presenciar amor na forma de pequenos tesouros.

Not a day goes by without me feeling crafty.
It’s just who I am. I create. Everyday.
On some days, tho, that urge to make stuff takes a whole new meaning.
Valentine’s Day is one of them.
Nothing gives me more joy than the chance
to express my love through handmade goodies.
Here’s the little book of love notes I made for my guy.
My favorite !
The email he sent to his friends and family back when we met in London.
The idea was that we both would make handmade gifts to each other, but let’s face it
it was probably a short notice decision for Matt to come up with something, so I gladly
agreed to a happy trip to the thrift shop and brought this sweet craft work station home.
Hope you all had a lovely day!
