Mi Gente, today is beautiful day, last night was a beautiful night. I spent yesterday playing video games and got a surprise visit from Kimmy & Mathias, Kizomba Canada’s cutest mini-couple.

Day 60 | Montreal, Are You Ready?

The struggle is over, the fun was necessary. 60 days of tears, joy and celebration. I had my last bacalhau at the airport and I took a piece with me just to be sure before I land to have a snack. I’ll close my eyes as I eat it and reminisce about my crazy experience […]

Day 61 | Mexico

The trip was amazing. Couldn’t see anything, slept all the way because we had to leave the house around 5 oclock. We had an amazing night with the Kitaba social last night, a lot of people came. Was one of the nights where I danced the most. They did an amazing birthday surprise in the […]

Day 67 | Feeling Pumped

Yesterday was the last day of the Kizomba Canada Summer Set session. First session completed since I got back from #stuckinLisbon.

Day 72 | Family First

Woke up on another day in another city. On Sunday I got bad news about my nephew: Junior was sick at the hospital. He is first born of the next generation, the first grandson of the family, our biggest baby . Knowing that, without thinking twice, your doctor jumped on the bus and made my […]

Day 73 | Hard Work

Eweee Mi Gente! Last Thursday, you already know, Manuel & Flavie taught at Baila Con Gusto. Lots of new faces, discovering #kizomba for the first or second time. That made me happy.

Day 81 | Texas via Chicago

I really don’t like the food on the plane. It tastes weird. So I make sure I got my sandwich. Yes I know I’m being a little cheap. I got my water too because I really don’t know where they get their water from, that plane water don’t taste like mineral water. I dunno if […]

Day 81 | Texas via Chicago via Houston

Just arrived at Chi-town, one hour behind Montreal, I did some time travelling and still managed to miss my flight. I dunno actually, I’m going to my gate to find out what the heck is going on. Now that I see some black people, I guess I am in Chicago. Hopefully I don’t cross Kanye […]

Well. Wakanda weekend. Amazing San Antonio. The weather, amazing. Old friends, amazing. I finished my first semba workshop. Amazing. Always planting cookies on student’s minds. Shit that motherfuckers don’t usually think about but is very important on the dance floor. That’s why your boy is named Dr. Kizomba. I have a sad news to tell […]
