Breathe, It is Paradise

IMG_5000Breathe and exhale. Say amen and dream. Take your temperature and stay cool. It is the sun. It is the cloud. It is the palm tree. It is the serene sound of tranquility. It is the quietness. Silence. It is the sea. It is the sunset. It is the red sunset. It is the sun on the horizon. It is heaven. Relax. It is paradise in the middle of the ocean. It is the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe in the golf of Guinea in Africa, Lonely Planet and CNN travel destinations for 2014. And oh, did I say that’s where I come from?! Indulge!

It Is Earth Day!

DSC_0008It is Earth day. How are you celebrating the day? Personally, I am a recycle freak. I recycle anything and everything that can be recycled not because it is fashionable but the right thing to do.

DSC_0132This is how they do it in Geneva, one bin for each type of goodies… Pet – pet’s monkey businesses, Verre – any breakable element like in glass, Organizes Compostables – organic components like in fruits, Papier Carton – paper & cardboard, Alu fer Blanc – aluminum can, Ordures Ménagères – garbage to include everything like in electrical wire, old clocks... Yes, you do not find one tiny bit of paper or whatever on the ground, it is insanely clean. This is what I call keeping mother earth happy. I wish I could say the same about many hoods. Yes, I am pushing it and yes, clean air is always in the air in that city.
