Once upon a time...

Once upon a time I was a child. I was a little girl. I was taught children's songs.
Then I grew up... I listened to different songs. Some of them I could even dance...
I was only ten. I hadn´t grown up yet as I thought I had...
I got taller and taller and some other songs brought new dreams to my life...
These songs keep playing in my heart...

Dear Miners

I can no other answer make, but, thanks, and thanks. William Shakespeare

Forty years ago...

Forty years ago I landed in Lisbon.
Lisbon was a kind of a myth for those who lived so far away as I lived. My mom used to tell me stories about a sophisticated town, about ladies wearing gloves and hats, about kind gentleman, about a lake where lovers could sail...
I knew nothing about a Portuguese feeling named "saudade". One month later that feeling was part of me.
Here I am, paying my tribute to this wonderful town. It is also my town. It's one of my towns.
