listening for the call

Did you ever listen for the night calling you to go outside???

I did… I’ve been hearing it for a while. 

I’ve been having these really weird cravings for my whole life… I have explored the night in NYC, in Sao Paulo, London, Portsmouth, Santiago de Chile, Santa Fe… well… the list goes on and on…

Night time just fascinates me… and I haven’t had time or the mood to explore it… to listen to it’s call for so long!

I used to lay down in the grass and look at the moon… to have long conversations with friends under the stars… I used to walk alone through the streets of Sao Paulo or New York and feel the smell of the late hours of night – or early hours of morning if you will – and feel the freedom that it used to give me… The emptiness of places that are so full of the human presence during the day…

I felt this call tonight… I had to open the bathroom window and breathe the night time air… look outside and take a peek at the iluminated and derk windows as people were asleep or going on through their business…

I had to look at the skyline and the fading red/yellow line of a sun that insisted to make itsel visible… even at 11pm… and it felt so great!!!

When the night calls you it calls you….

The same thing happens when the road calls you… I just love the journey… 

I remember travelling since I am a lil thing… I think I love more the journey than I enjoy arriving to my destination… It has always been like that.

I think I need to take the road again… I know I have roots now and I know I can’t just leave everything behind, but even if just for a week I need to get away… I ned to feel the thrill of the journey… I need to feel alive this way again…

When the night calls… when the road calls… you have to listen.

The only question is when will I  - be able to – do something about it??

zya!

Let the games begin…

… we’re looking for houses again…

After spending the past 2 years in our current flat we have now agreed that it is time to move camp!

Exciting from one side… New house… starting fresh etc etc etc… even if moving just from Wimbledon to South Wimbledon (or so we hope)… but hey… this time we’re looking for a house… with a backyard… yay! :)

Still bloody difficult… specially knowing how fussy Vic can be… lol… We’ve got a couple of VERY good runner ups already tho… and things are actually looking good as they seem to be lower in price than our current flat! Which is great!

Let’s just hope this time around things are not as stressful as they were when we moved from the Metro Central Heights! Every time we move I want to believe it will be the last time… but I do know for a fact that there is no such thing in London… lol… the idea of starting to pack all our stuff gives me the hibbie jibbies!

On a brighter note…

Things are looking great @ Crossed Waves!!! We’ve been offered a meeting room, in central London in Tottenham Court Road Station (actually inside of the station @ exit 4 to be more precise), completely free of charge! The place is not great or enormous… we can feet about 20 people there comfortably, but for what we need it not, it is PERFECT! We call it THE UNDERGROUND HUB! hehehe Loving it!!!! Big plans, big plans! :)

OK… gotta run… loads to do!

zya!
