in Rio

No words to describe how beautiful is this DVD of Bebel Gilberto... I was simply agape while watching it.

Everything perfect: her voice and the melody at that unequaled landscape - during the day, sunset and night... Wow! So nice... I just regret not being there for its footage.

I miss Rio so much! - not only the postcard, but everything which comes along: friends, buzz, career, respect, recognition...Well, it must come at the right moment. 

After all, I remember who I am:

Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand / Just like that river twisting through a dusty land / And when she shines she really shows you all she can / Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande

A gold gift! Thank you ♥

Just a solace for being a guest of Bebel Gilberto's live DVD shooting (happening now, at Arpoador beach, in Rio), and not be there...

I miss the beach, my friends and family, besides all cultural Brazilian buzz and our well-known human-warmth.

Furthermore, I love bossa nova!
