With a gap of one month, I finally got the chance to publish new pictures. This time I had to merge the 3rd and 4th month.
The project is almost getting into the finishing line, but the experience is still being very interesting and enjoyable.

Portuguese Art in Brussels _ a piece from home

João — Fri, 28 Sep 2007 15:48:17 +0200

When we are abroad it is always funny to find things from our motherculture.
At the BOTANIQUE metro station, near where I live, everytime I go there I see Portuguese Art. Why? The tile panel in the platform was made by a famous Artist - Julio Pomar - and represents one of greatest Portuguese Poets - Fernando Pessoa.

Last weekend one of my best friends got married. It was hard, but i could not get there and be with all of my friends at the wedding. However, they found a solution and I "was" there all the time, with a big smile and full of energy!
Take a look to some of the pictures my Friends sent me:
