Day 197

If adventures will not befall a young lady in her own village, she must seek them abroad.

Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

Day 196 - StreetStyle

Day 195 - A Royal Affair

Quem perdeu a oportunidade de ver este filme, que em março deste ano estreou nas salas de cinema portuguesas, não deixe agora de procurar por ele. O filme é Realmente muito bom (eu sou suspeita porque tenho um fraquinho por filmes de época).

Ao actor Mads Mikkelsen (já próximo dos 50) uma salva de palmas, que além da sua excelente interpretação rebenta a escala de sex appeal possível para um só filme. A realização e a fotografia do filme também ganham pontos!

Gostei do facto não perceber absolutamente nada do que eles diziam (as legendas neste caso são fundamentais acreditem!)

É certamente um filme que não me vai sair da cabeça por algum tempo.

25 REASONS TO LOVE LISBON

artigo completo na Lisbon Magazine

MY REASONS TO LOVE LISBON:

1 | IT’S UNPRETENTIOUS
Lisbon is cool because it’s not interested in fitting in.

3| IT’S ONE BIG ART GALLERY
Lisbon is filled with imaginatively-adorned streets, from artistic (and not-so-artistic) graffiti, to dazzling tile panels on walls, to art nouveau store signs, to its characteristic cobblestone design pavements. Everywhere you turn is someone’s work of art.

4| THE WORLD’S BEST PASTRIES

7| IT’S BOHEMIAN YET TRENDY
Somehow Lisbon holds on to its unconventional styles while also being up-to-date on the latest global trends. 

8| ARCHITECTURAL DIVERSITY

Here, no two buildings are alike. 

10| IT’S TIMELESS
(...)the past and the present coexist in Lisbon.

11| IT’S HAUNTED BY GHOSTS OF POETS
Like other great historical cities, Lisbon has inspired artists and writers, and its soulful atmosphere feels haunted by writers such as Fernando Pessoa, Eça de Queiroz or Nobel Prize-winning José Saramago.

14| THE BEST CLIMATE (IN THE WORLD)
(...)300 days of sunshine throughout the year.

15| THE BEACHES
The only other major city blessed with sand and sea is Barcelona, but Lisbon’s coastline is bigger, more diverse and beautiful.

20| THE COFFEE IS BETTER AND THE TEA IS ONE-OF-A-KIND
Portugal knows a thing or two about coffee. (...) A tiny cup of strong, black coffee in Lisbon is called a “bica,” and if you’re a caffeine addict, you won’t find better coffee anywhere else. If you prefer tea, try the only tea produced in Europe, the Gorreana green tea from Portugal’s Azores.

25| IT’S SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL

Lisbon’s luminosity and seductive alleys that force you to wander around discovering hidden secrets make it one of the world’s most beautiful cities.

Day 192 - Woodkid

"Early this year, Yoann Lemoine took us to more than a narrative with the autobiographical album “The Golden Age”. Through the eyes of the character Woodkid, we immersed ourselves into the emotional, mother-y and psychoanalytic narrative explored with sounds, textures, ambiances and a lot of symbolism through his music and self directed videos."

I Love You

Ghost Lights

"In both Lemoine's videos and his music, there is a strong focus on narrative, as well as rich, vivid imagery. In mixing the grandiose with the intimate and personal, he has created a recognizable visual aesthetic, to accompany his rich, sweeping, orchestral collection of music."
