Travel

Wow, I dont have time for this shit. I booked a room in Venice California, for the whole month. And apparently I booked a room with a drugaddict and psycho woman. First when I arrived everything was cool, She was really nice. But after 15th of the month she said if I will stay more. I say no, it is too expensive, room costs like 1500 usd per month. ANd then the psycho woman start being more and more evil. 

I was so happy to buy a new laptop 6 months back, I praised my MSI GT70 Laptop in this video. But MSI sucks!! My laptop broke down after 6 months of usage. And all I need is a working laptop so I can travel and relax. But now MSI fucked me over really good. I have to wait 2 months to get it repaired so meanwhile I am stuck at home unable to travel and go back to Thailand. 

I stayed for quite some time for spiritual reasons in small Brazilian village/town. It is so away from civilization. Farmers use horses as car replacement. You get a regular shortage of electricity. It happened like a lot, I would say at least six days in a month. And people are obsessed with elections and politics. The firecrackers, rockets, can be heard all day and all night in the months before elections. Quite funny. How many Brazilians are, in fact, missing fingers?

Another city I visited for a day. Goiania, claimed as one of the most dangerous cities in Brazil. In bus station, bus station clerks told me stories how buses coming to Goiania are often robbed, so bus drivers never stop and pick up people from beside the road. Goiania must be really dangerous, if you are afraid to pick up people who are waiting for a bus. And that is true. I was waiting for a bus in a village going to Goiania, and there was a bus going to Goianina passing me every few minutes. I tried to stop them with my hand. They waved back and show me a no-no  sign.

This is my last day in Brazil. I haven't gone to Rio de Janeiro at all, only the first day after I waited for a plane to Brazil's capital Brasilia. I have stayed in Brazil almost one year. 11 and half month to be exact. Brazil is different country, different culture. I was thinking hey Brazil is close to Mexico. They must have  burrito stands all over the place and Mexican food. You wish. I think Brazilians are too proud people. And that is so stupid. They have high import taxes, over 40%.

I have been staying here for a few months and I like it. The one thing that I like the most is the Brazilian weather. In wintertime it gets a little bit chilly in the evenings, and you have to wear a jacket for a few nights, but on all other days the weather is just perfect. I mean it is not as hot as weather in Thailand where you sweat profusely all day.

You can walk outside in the street during the day and it's hot, but it's not super hot. You don't sweat, you enjoy the sun touching your skin.

I have been staying here in Brazil for the six months and here is my experience. Some people may disagree and some people might not. The biggest problem I see in Brazil is that the economy is too proud of itself. This is a weird statement but let me explain. I have traveled all over the world and in every freaking country they have electric toothbrushes. I’m talking specifically about oral b toothbrushes from Braun company. This is a German company and I would say all of the countries I visited before carried these electric toothbrushes.

I feel I am a very lucky person! I just realized that. Other people would give legs and arms to have a life style like me. I mean I have been in the 30 different countries in the last 10 years, only because I was able to quit my job and start traveling. I mean if that is not a god's blessing than what is it?

I have lived in one of the most beautiful cities in the world; Budapest was the ugliest city ever though.

Here is where I lived:

Here are some more pictures from my travel in Brazil. I like it, it is not bad. But I miss my Thailand. Brazilians are too similar to us, Europeans. Not so nice as Thai people. But learning Portuguese is much easier then Learning Thai. That is for sure.

Also the weather is pretty cool. Today and yesterday it is even too cold if you ask me. I think I am getting a cold. 

SO here are few shots I took with my Iphone, hope you enjoy it.
