    Magic Kingdom | Disney 2017

    June 16, 2017 /

    And here comes a flood of photos, get ready! Disney’s most famous park is also one of the most photogenic and obviously most photographed places in the world. I decided not to take the official camera, more for the practicality of carrying something more compact, such as the phone, so many photos were taken. However, with the phone, the battery may not last all day and hence the question of recharging with portable charger or finding an outlet by the park (which is not feasible at all). I intend to take the camera like all previous trips, even if trambolhenta. I’ll start by saying that I found it very crowded…

    10 tips for visiting parks in Orlando

    June 9, 2017 /

    Mandatory group photo at magic kingdom entrance   The month of May flew, because we were in Orlando on vacation. You know what vacation is like, that anxiety to get there, then in the first few days it seems like you have a lot of time ahead of you and when you see it's enough to pack up and come back. On trips, I end up giving a break to social networks and posting very little, because focus on family and tours, really does not seem like it gives time to check the phone. Yes, as it has become our travel routine, everything is very intense. This time, we spent…

    Tulip Festival | Ottawa 2017

    May 30, 2017 /

    Canadian Tulip Festival 2017 The beautiful tulips colored Ottawa during the days 12 and 22 Of May in 2017 and I passed there quickly to record a little bit of this beauty. We were going away on the second day of the festival and not to miss it, I visited Dow’s Lake on the way to the same airport. This was the 65th Canadian Tulip Festival that takes place in various locations in ottawa and gatineau and note there, in 2018, will take place from 11 to 21 May. The 15 minutes under fine rain were essential for me to register with the same phone, the festival that was promising…

    IKEA Guide for Newcomers| the Dining Room

    April 24, 2017 /

    Almost forgotten here on the blog, I come back today with the IKEA sweetheart series and the empty pocket love-hate relationship with those who are changing countries and need to start from scratch. We’ve had several rooms in this series (see links at the end of this post) and although most newly arrived immigrant households are somewhat compact for economic reasons, whether you want it or not, you’ll need a place to eat, being a family, a couple or someone living alone. I have selected pieces that can be used in the long term, because from my own experience, I know that many of the things bought in these first…

    The art of immigrating

    March 27, 2017 /

    At Ottawa airport, the day we arrived as permanent residents in Canada. Just like art in other fields, the art of immigrating is yes, in a way, complex and not for everyone. Today, after basically 9 1/2 years of the moment we became immigrants, I remembered those first days and months when we arrived with so many things to learn and so many uncertainties. We are with renovation here at home currently and after almost 30 days without stove and 2 weeks camped on the basement floor of the house where the laundry is doing cooking times, we are slowly returning to our normal rhythm. The kitchen here is not…

    Look at you dear readers, I, as a motivated architect That I am, I’m always finding ways to turn our home into a sweet home (see the hashtag #studioajhome on instagram). This is not only a task reserved only for architects or staff working in the area, many people I know are always trying to bring their style to their home, making improvements and making their corner in the world more cozy. They say that in a blacksmith’s house, the skewer is wooden, but here at home, on the contrary, I try to make the improvements constantly and when possible (and drag Diego with me), but there are things that…
