Very special...

Simple...Beautiful...So true...  

The original song is from 1952 and since then it has been interpreted by the most brilliant voices of Brazil.





Não fazes favor nenhum
Em gostar de alguém
Nem eu, nem eu, nem eu
Quem inventou o amor
Não fui eu
Não fui eu, não fui eu
Não fui eu nem ninguém
O amor acontece na vida
Estavas desprevenida
E por acaso eu também
E como o acaso é importante querida
De nossas vidas a vida
Fez um brinquedo também

Marina

She arrived today...menina Marina...
The little girl who will change the lives of my dear friends Neto and Flavia...
And I still remember when Neto came to our place and said: "Lari, I met her, the woman of my dreams!", and I said : "really? That's amazing!"...in summary, a huge coincidence, she was my ex sister-in-law! Yes, totally random, we couldn't believe it...after that, we spent New Year's Eve in Punta Del'Este together, we had great chats about live, love, people from Capricorn( hahaha, the 3 of us are...Neto Jan 9th, Flavinha Jan 14th, me Jan 17th) I was one of the bridesmaid in their wedding, they came to visit me in London last year and now, Marina!!! She arrived today and all I wish is I could be there to meet her and give Neto and Flavinha a huge, massive hug!!! Marina, a lovely little baby and one of the most beautiful songs in my playlist, from Dorival Caymmi.

In moments like this there is no way I can avoid questioning what I'm doing here, miles away from the people that matter the most in my life...
Anyway, Marina menina, menina Marina, God bless you and I promise I'll "esmagar" you very very soon!!!

Looking for flight tickets now!!!!



The most "chorao & babao" dad I know, for sure!!!

Neto and I in New York

Flavinha, the sweetest bride


The 3 "tios" bobos, from London, saying hello to Marina!
