Ready.

Back to writing.
It's been forever I haven't written anything and I always feel like it puts me back in my place. It's always good to put my ideas on paper...(well, on screen?)
I've been traveling a lot, and I believe I am a little done with my little adventure (in regards to traveling)
I went to Extremadura (Mérida, Trujillo and Cáceres), Lisbon, Marrakech, Rome and Barcelona in one month. :D I loved it, it was so nice to see all these countries and cities. I had so much fun and I learned a lot. The whole airport thing gets you tired, and you always end up spending a lot of money on the way, but I believe it was worth it.
I loved every of these cities, and they ended up being as nice (or better) as I imagined. I am enchanted by Portugal - even though the rain didn't allow me to enjoy the beach and so on. I felt so at home, not just because of the language, but a lot of things that I thought were from the Brazilian culture were actually rooted there.

The people from the hostel I stayed at (which I HIGHLY recommend, called Traveller's House!) were telling me that there is a lot prejudice with Brazilian people in Portugal, due to the illegal immigrants trying to get in... It's understandable, and it makes me a bit sad. I hope Brazilian people dont end up turning like the latinos in South America who have this bad reputation for coming illegaly to other developed countries.

This past week I was a bit down...I dont know why. I was tired from all the trips I think. Katie said that maybe it's because I needed to relax from all the traveling I did and stay at home a bit. I was also homesick like crazy. So I changed my ticket for the 17th of June (which already made me feel better!)
I miss David, and I miss the little home things. But I have only like 29 days (less than a month!!!!!) to get back and I need to enjoy a bit here, since I will miss it...
So today I went to the grocery store, grabbed some jamón, and some jamón-filled olives, and I am eating some 'pipas' here...
Probably go to the park (I will miss my good Retiro), and drink some sangría and hang out with my Paff and Christian. I will miss Christian, he is such a great guy!!

But I decided to turn that little homesick feeling, into (as David said!) good things to look foward. It's so funny: It's a mixture with things and people I am dying to do and see, and the nostalgy from here.
Hey, it's life.
:)
but I am thankful for being able to feel such things.

But I am ready. :) Happily ready.
