Save, save !!! Save who can.
“Summer arrives … the warmth in the heart … this colorful magic … things of life …” As Marina said singing her girls, summer came a long time ago and here to stay. The heat is not in the heart, but throughout the body. And the magic made by deodorants and perfumes are really fantastic things in life.
The playlist “European summerIt is a pleasant miscellany of classics and news. The second song of such Carey St is worth the comedy. She (or them, as they are an Australian indie rock group) has only released singles so far, no albums. It must be the new trend of the market.
Enjoy the 122 songs to enjoy with the wind on your face, a caipirinha and your beloved, on land, in the air or at sea. If you are in a smoking cement bar, your Hawaiian melting with that glacial heat in the lake glass and a lemon pig on the side, enjoy the same way.
It sounds in the box, but very slowly.
Summer nausea
In Brazil the hottest season of the year started a long time ago, but in the old world they have 4 ° C right now.
For those who observe from afar, life in Europe is an eternal cappuccino in the late afternoon with a parked Vespa and his beloved of eyes fixed on you, without slamming the eyelids.
Reality is a subway crowded in advance, without air conditioning on older models, people who really go to work or tourists who want to make the most of the day. So far, so good. The problem is that the class has not arrived in a bathroom here. The deodorant must have been prohibited after the war.
In winter it is usually not taking a shower every day. I suspect that only one weekly shower on the frame on Saturday is a common practice. The clothes and coats help to mask the budum. But what about the summer? The catinga that exudes this class is narcotic. Thanks to Covidid, the masks are still mandatory in public transport and save the homeland. Someone must warn this class that are not dogs.
Enter a bus or tram giving him that painter who comes back from work, or even go to shower yesterday or the day before yesterday, or with that lady and his puppy already full of skinira in the hips, he spent his legs and looking at Those who are going for force is not a pleasant experience. The air becomes static with stench, try to breathe as little as possible, as if I had come out of a cave immersion with the air cylinder at 20%. Postcovid this is even more difficult.
As he is stopped by the smell, life continues. Go down the train thanking Saint Stephen, patron of Vienna, for having to use transport for a few seasons. Recover the senses, take the mask to suck as oxygen as possible and try to remember where your job is or to do there.
Last summer he had one day with 36 ° C The shadow. On the asphalt, over 50 ° C. Spray have launched water spray in the main squares of the city. The children went to delirium and their parents to despair in the same proportion. The old people who read their newspapers in the coffee looked like wax statues. The cats and dogs also surrendered to the city looking for shadows and remained there.
Free natural water sources are installed in strategic points. Whoever leaves the house without a bottle of water, the puppy is Lelé from Cuca or was born in the Sahara.
The city should distribute deodorants, soap, shampoo and towels to the population at this time of year. Make educational campaigns, explain the benefits of the cold bathroom or simply the bathroom!
Install external showers and promote general cleaning and without restrictions on the nation. A mascot, who could be that blue man of the Johnson cotton fields, would have grown up to the new Austrian national identity. The seals would be coined with their figure and a coin of 1 sister euro -in -law.
Salvation is public pools. Well, not everything. Each district of the city has at least one. If it is crowded, you get a line for everything, but nothing so dramatic. The thorn beer is always cold, honest but unhealthy food, the children turn off with ice and ice creams, swim with ducks, swans and fish and everyone goes home, happy and hard hair. After all, they have already made a “bathroom”.
Mediterranean X Bahia
If you really want to enjoy the European summer, tap in Croatia, Greece or Italy. Make at least a boat trip or even friendship with a yacht owner.
I lived a torrid summer novel that lasts to date. Corfu in Greece is a witness. Every day I will start writing a book that tells our story, the honeymoon before the wedding.
Do you remember that Italian town of the film “The Talentod Ripley”? A village with boats that came from the small port, the sun and the blue of the omnipresent Mediterranean, some houses, canteens and bars, good food, madness at night. This is a few.
And Bahia? There is summer every day and all year. I have already spent several memorable moments on the ground of the Bahian, including the New Year’s New Year with the foot in the sand in Arial.
Bahia is unique and should be listed by UNESCO as unparalleled cultural heritage. Food, people, music, the sun, sand, breeze, that summer drink under the coconut trees waiting for the sun to greet, the guys playing on the beach, the Castelinhos, the cheating crab, the shells, The turtles and living waters, shrimp Bobó, Bonfim, Capoeira, Axé, Gil, Caetano, Dorival, Jorge Amado, João Gilberto, Pepeu, Baby, Alceu, Morais and Elba.
Bahia is better than any beach in Europe.

Film: before Sunrise (1995) / before Sunset (2004) / before midnight (2013) – Richard Linklater. The improbable turns of love.
I saw the first two of the trilogy and I remember “before sunset” with the duo Ethan Hawke and the eternal Francesinha Julie Delpy. Each of the three films was spent in a single moment of the day and were made at nine -year intervals.
In the first of them, “before dawn”, Jesse (Ethan) and Celine (Julie) meet on an Eurail train that goes to Paris with a fair scale in Vienna. Jesse convinces Celine to go down to the Austrian capital. The two are lost in the streets of the city and the stories fall in love, of course. But everyone has his life and decides to take the course of the house, not without first combining an appointment in the future.
I can say that this happened to me and my wife, but we made the correct decision to meet us after a few months, not years.
“Before sunset”, the second, I remember vaguely. The meeting takes place nine years later in Paris. Jesse is married and author of the best sellers. Celine is in the city to promote her book that counts in the meeting of both in Vienna. It is the book I will write. They are around an afternoon through the French capital, regretting not following the plans to meet soon. They let the time pass and everyone took a turning point. Until Jesse does not go to Celine’s apartment and decides to lose the return flight home.
The third film “Before midnight” I have not seen, but shows the two together nine years later in Greece, sometimes seeing. During the summer holidays, now married and with the twin daughters, they both meditated on Jesse to move to Chicago approaching their first son of marriage. Celine wants to stay in Paris and get stable work in the French government.
It is a film to see two, enjoying the cities and beautifully represented landscapes and the imperfect and apparently eternal love for the two.
These are films about what should have happened, what could have been and what was really and is stopped.
Book: Havana Dirty Trilogy / Pedro Juan Gutiérrez. Cuba’s bowels are sectioned.
I have read for a long time, but I remember having heard the warmth of the Havana transforming the pages amplified by rum into the glass of characters/author almost always.
Purposities, cigarettes and cigars, drunkenness, Cuban Calient and sex without commitment and rules, a free society also under Fidel’s dictatorship, Malecón. Life really as it is.
Pedro Juan said the human being is a stomach and a sex. More accurate and direct, impossible.
The synopsis says: “The book” Dirty Trilogy of Havana “is a milestone in Latin American literature. In most autobiographical, it is a wide narration on Cuba’s daily life in the middle of the economic crisis and the most emblematic book by Pedro Juan Gutiérrez. Without fear of exposing, the writer tells his private life and everything that goes around. And sensuality.
