Why starting a blog?

I enjoy writing, and I mostly do it for myself, be it in Portuguese (my native language) or in English. Soon (I hope), I might even give French a try.

I write on word files on my computer, I write on physical notebooks that I keep in my room and my library.

I write poetry (one of my poems was recently published in a book with poems written by several authors), social criticism articles, deep thoughts, scientific articles regarding Psychology, whatever floats my boat.

"So... Why start a blog? Why now?", you may ask.

I've had blogs before, but ended up giving up on them - I was a lot younger then. I was a student, and I found it hard to juggle school and other activities at the time.

Mainly because I think it's about time that I start sharing my thoughts with the world, and to get feedback from whoever has the patience to read them, and feels like communicating.

Lets face it: it's a huge world, and the internet allows us to "visit" places, meet people and touch and be touched by cultures other than our own that we most likely would never be able to experience otherwise.

That is how we learn. And, as I see it, once a student, always a student.

What can you expect from my blog? Expect the unexpected!

You'll most likely bump into poetry, deep thoughts, personal development articles, music (I love music and I take great pleasure in torturing friends, family, neighbors, coworkers - I can sing all day!), book reviews and recommendations (I love reading!), photographs I might take (I love Photography, but I am only an amateur, so please bear with me), social criticism articles, travelling...

If it pops in my mind, it might end up on my blog!
