  • Everybody Knows

    Everybody Knows

    Leonard Cohen and Sharon Robinson’s “Everybody Knows” is the central anthem for this post because I chose this story to talk about Brazil election system. My dear Mom loves Leonard Cohen because of Hallelujah and without doubt he’s one of the greatest Canadian artists of all time, for more than just these two songs but…

  • Trancoso Night and Dreaming of Brazil

    Trancoso Night and Dreaming of Brazil

    I’ve been missing Brazil lately and then while searching the public domain for a Brazil image came across this photo called Trancoso Night, in that moment I was inspired me to make this post because it’s one place I was not able to see yet and the best way I can remember to go back,…

  • The Girl from Ipanema

    The Girl from Ipanema

    Brazil enjoys the largest recording industry outside of the United States, so the number of brilliant artists and the wide variety of genres (most people have never heard of), is truly staggering. The first time I’d ever hear this beautiful language was by vinyl record, as my father had a huge jazz collection, and even…

  • Born under a Lucky Star

    Born under a Lucky Star

    I was born under a lucky star, or so my Dear Old Mom tells me. She was born of Irish immigrants to Canada, who taught her to always look on the bright side of life, with a good dose of chin-up and carry-on when things didn’t go as planned. She and my Dad taught me…

    Without a doubt, the oldest and most well-recognized brand in the “Expat” niche is Escape Artist (see: EscapeArtist.com).

  • Big Rock Brazil

    Big Rock Brazil

    Pedra Grande is actually the name of this magical place I discovered about 100km from Sao Paulo. Big Rock Brazil was a brand idea for creating a mountain bike resort on a private property in Pedra Grande. Btw: (by the way) Pedra translates to English as stone or rock and grande is large or big,…

  • Brazil is proof God wants us happy

    Brazil is proof God wants us happy

    I didn’t invent that slogan but I think that Ben Franklin would agree. Brazil is perfection, in it’s natural state. Comparing to Canada the distances are as vast but due to the climate and geography, much of the countryside is lush and verdant green. Brazil is the last greatest country left on earth (in my…

  • Wild Orchid Brazil

    Wild Orchid Brazil

      Happy Birthday Canada! We stand on guard for thee…. here in Brazil (that is).  I will always love Canada but prefer living in Brazil. Silicon Palms is now working on something unique that I’d like to share with you. Over a year ago, I was presented with an opportunity to design a resilient community…
