Black and white photo of a street mural depicting a man in a hat smoking a cigarette, with smoke rising, on a shadowed cobblestone alley bordered by buildings.

🪩 There was a LOT of good stuff in between these two photos. Full weekend. Glad Monday is rest day. And so happy we all just say “Let’s go!” when someone suggests something to do.

Two people stand at an outdoor DJ setup with turntables and audio equipment against a wall decorated with graffiti and fish murals.

A tall glass of Asahi beer with a frothy head sits on a wooden table under warm ambient light from a nearby lamp, with a menu and chopsticks in the background.

Ohyama photographs nondescript urban buildings from cities across Japan and edits out the backgrounds, leaving just a cutout of the structure. The seemingly simple process renders each building almost as a miniature dollhouse.

⛰️ Final photo of the weekend. I did spend 46 minutes (and 17 seconds) at that pool, right before the photo was taken. Brilliant way to end an epic couple of days.

View from a dimly lit kitchen window overlooking a backyard with a pool, surrounded by greenery and mountains illuminated by the warm light of sunset.

🤣 This weekend deserves a longer post.

👀 Kova

Street art of a face with glowing eyes on a weathered garage door, partially obscured by hanging laundry and a parked blue car.

😅 Not a lot of photos, but I guess that’s great! We went, found a lot of friends we didn’t expect, had a generous amount of beer, danced, and had SO much fun! Also got a haircut.

🥳 Next up? Joining Mansinho, and we’re going to a party at the biggest favela in the area. We love it there. Also, first time out with the new camera!

Humor, honesty, and kindness.

It would make my life worthwhile, if this is how my daughter described me.

📥 Photos have been sent. Work is done. Not too bad, and good to be back to the new office. They even rolled out the red carpet, or so it seems.

Grand hallway with arched doorways, marble floors, red carpet, and ornate hanging lanterns leading to double wooden doors with frosted glass panels.

🫥 I love to post photos over here, and on the blog, but I wish there was an easy way to add music to them, and easily share them. Picking songs for Instagram stories is a guilty pleasure that would be very hard to quit, I’m afraid. I have a lot of fun with it.

👀 It’s a lovely city. And newcomers always bring something new to the table. Some more than others, of course.

A person lies on a narrow cobblestone sidewalk in front of an orange building with balconies, sun-bathing , using a phone while partially shaded by a black cap.

🚶🏻‍♂️ All things considered, it was a 17500+ steps day. We had a good time, but boy is that subway station far from the damn museum. The tiny one behaved like a champ, in a pair of pink Hunter wellies!

🤕 It was a fun afternoon for the kids. Hundreds of kids in a museum with science experiments. Noise levels through the roof.

🧠 Off we go, to the Knowledge Pavilion. We’re taking one of tinyMovieStar’s best friends along for the ride!

☀️ That early morning light, in between rain showers.

A dark green sedan is parked on a cobblestone street in front of a beige apartment building with green-trimmed windows, a lamppost, and parking signs under partial tree shade.

Stairway leading out of an underground area with sunlight casting shadows on the walls, a red “M” metro sign above, and a bright blue sky with clouds in the background.

💼 Friday is my Back to the Office day, for 30 mins only. Not too bad.

📺 Done with Legends. I’d say 3.5/4 stars. Would watch Season 2, but not sure if we’re getting a new one. Yay for British TV!
