On the way home

Sorry for not updating the blog as often as I should, but work kept getting in the way!

Our last full day in Rio! We are off to South Carolina, where we are buying a home and settling in for a while. We are both a bit tired of the 'gypsy' life and looking forward to having a 'home' again. We hope to see you soon:)

Cheers!



Yet another farewell...

Thank you for the great farewell party! Let's not say farewell -- but see you soon;). The B&B in South Carolina is starting to book guests this summer!

You've given me great support (not only on the couch -- of course)! Thanks;)

More farewells...

 Goodbye kisses! Wait, I'll see you on Saturday... we are teaching together:)
 Anninha, Thank you! You've been so loving...not only because of the constant hugging and kissing, of course!
 Marcinha, Elisa, & meeee
 First picture Anninha takes of me w/ actual food, no dessert to display;)
Of course, they made me cry! I got a book of pictures capturing all of our special moments! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Farewell...sniff, sniff

Saying goodbye is never easy! Even though we are looking forward to going home and seeing our family and friends, we know we are leaving some amazing people behind...Thank you for everything! It's been a great ride;)

We've had a few 'going away' parties... Ernie will miss these 'gals' too:)

 Marcinha, Plus 1 (aka Lucas), and me
 Group hug...lots of tears
 Anninha and Ernie (aka her sugar daddy)


Patty & Marcinha, you rock!

 Elisa, aka Ms. Boss, having a strawberry caipirinha -- wow! Let's capture the moment;)

Maria & Mr. Peachy:)

Will totally miss you -- professionally & personally!


Ahhh...she's so amazing; I'm so in love -- thinks, Mr. Peachy;)


Maria and Monica showing off Lady Gaga's shoes! Maria is still taller despite my higher hills;(
The Chef, aka Mr. Peachy, is making pizza from scratch! What a treat;). Can we order them from South Carolina?!

Arpoador - Another perfect day with friends

We had a great morning! Thank you, Elisa, Marinho, & Sofia for such a relaxing and fun day;)




We can see you back there, Marinho!

Sugar Loaf...or is it?

The clouds were playing hide-and-seek with the Sugar Loaf that day -- quite a sight!
