Um guia de Lisboa escrito por uma turista londrina / A Guide to Lisbon by a Londoner



Gosto de saber como os turistas estrangeiros veem Portugal. Principalmente se gostam. Fico com aquele orgulho patriota. :)

Reproduzo aqui o primeiro parágrafo de um post que encontrei no Pinterest: "My Guide to Lisbon":

"Olá
I think my last visit had to have been at least my sixth to Lisbon. At least. I wouldn’t consider myself an expert on the city by any means, but this time I jotted down a few addresses that I’d been to before or new places that I’d heard about to take some snaps for a little guide here on the blog, in the hope that one day it’ll be handy to a few of you, or at least convince you that a trip to Lisbon is totally worth it!!"

Estudo da Universidade de Roma prova que ler deixa as pessoas mais felizes



É senso comum dizer que ler faz bem, que proporciona aos leitores inúmeros benefícios intangíveis. No entanto, é difícil encontrarmos estudos que comprovem essas teses. Ou era difícil. Investigadores da Universidade de Roma 3, em Itália, realizaram um trabalho com cerca de 1.100 pessoas para encontrar a resposta para duas questões: «Quem lê livros é mais feliz do que quem não lê?» e «A leitura melhora o nosso bem-estar»? A conclusão, apresentada no artigo «The Happiness of Reading», é bastante clara: os leitores são mais felizes e encaram a vida de forma mais positiva que os não leitores.

20 sinais de que encontraste o trabalho que te apaixona / 20 Signs You’ve Found Your Passion



It’s often not until someone prompts us to think about the work that we do that we recognise how we truly feel about it. Sometimes, all it takes is the right question to make us look at our job in a whole new light. Today, I ask you this: How would you feel if you were to stay in your line of work forever?

If, upon reading that last sentence, you were filled with warm fuzzy feelings – congratulations, you might just have found your passion. Here are 20 signs that let you know that you’ve found the passion that makes your heart sing!


  1. You consistently wake up before your alarm clock, excited to start work.
  2. The idea of building your career fills you with anticipation, not dread.
  3. You’re a little freaked out by the magnitude of everything that you have to do – not because you don’t want to do it, but because you want so badly to succeed.
  4. You “productively procrastinate” – whenever you get bogged down in one task, you take a break and distract yourself with something that benefits your passion, too.
  5. You get a little twinkle in your eye and a grin on your face whenever you’re asked what you do.
  6. You’d rather stay up working than watching TV.
  7. You sometimes dedicate your weekends to work, and don’t even mind doing so.
  8. You’ve got an insatiable appetite for books, blog articles and anything else that you can get your hands on related to your field.
  9. When you think of a life without your passion, you feel empty.
  10. You make room in your life for your passion, scheduling personal appointments and everything else around building your dream.
  11. You find it difficult to relate to people who have no desire to pursue their own dreams.
  12. You’ve found yourself cutting out negative thinkers from your life. You won’t let small minds talk you out of big ideas!
  13. You’d rather have a “dream lunch date” with your business idols than your favourite celebrities.
  14. You wake up thinking about it. You go to sleep thinking about it. Actually, there aren’t many moments where you’re not thinking about it.
  15. Your head is constantly spinning with ideas. You have brainwaves in the car, in the shower and any other inconvenient locations.
  16. You hear others complaining about their jobs and careers and, although you feel sad for them, you’re thrilled that you can’t relate.
  17. You’re constantly thinking of ways to improve your business and make it even better. You know you dream big, but you also work hard and back yourself with the confidence to try and make it happen.
  18. You start realizing that friends, family and even total strangers start coming to you for advice related to your field or entrepreneurialism. 
  19. Following your passion has taught you that you need to be working with something that you can throw your all into – whether its this passion or another one. You are no longer willing to settle for just a job that pays the bills but crushes your soul.
  20. You found yourself nodding throughout this list, reaffirming that you’ve found your place. And knowing that you’re bold enough to pursue your passion? Well, gives you a completely indescribable feeling in the most wonderful way.

Como vêem os estrangeiros Portugal e os portugueses? / Top 10 Tips for Traveling in Portugal: Ditch the High Heels!

Este texto é longo mas é muito divertido. Somos nós e o nosso país pelos olhos dos outros, dos estrangeiros que tanto gostam de Portugal.


Paulo Ossião


"I adore a stunning pair of high heels. I’m not talking about the mammoth spikes that can alternatively be used as an assault weapon, or block heels that make you walk like un-oiled stick figure; I’m referring to the elegant sensible heels that sculpt your legs into sumptuous, sleek delectables. That said, Portugal is not for the heel obsessed. Frankly, Portugal hates pumps, because no matter where you travel, you’ll inevitably hit slick cobblestone. These intricately designed death traps are stunning to look at but torturous to traverse. Either the heel will get caught in the spaces between the cobblestone, twisting your ankle into oblivion, or you’ll perpetually find yourself on your ass. Either way, your vacation will end short of fabulous, with you in a cast and your 600 euro laser cut Jimmy Choo’s abandoned in some roadside bin. My suggestion, let the natives climb medieval castles in 8 inch heels, while you lace up your hiking boots. 

Now, let’s tackle a few other handy, a bit of tongue and cheek, tips for your next trip!

TOILET SEAT

Half the population will be unperturbed by a bare bowl, but for those of you who enjoy a “sit down” experience, note this key travel tip when visiting Portugal – bring a seat! From hospitals to dive bars, get prepared for cold porcelain, because this is going to be your new reality! To date, I’m still unclear if toilet seats are considered an unnecessary extravagance here, or whether they’re swiped and resold on an the black market, but I can tell you that they’ve become my “Big Foot” of Portugal.
Suggestion: You can either tote an inflatable seat around, or use your visit to strengthen those quads as you hover precariously over the throne.

SOUP

Allow me to set the record straight, you’ve never tasted soup until you’ve visited Portugal!Portuguese soup is not just a convenient starter, it’s the cornerstone of Portuguese cuisine. From rich and chunky Sopa Alentejana made with garlic, cilantro, eggs and bread to the ubiquitous Caldo Verde containing pureed potato with shredded kale and chunks of chouriço (chorizo) sausage, there’s a soup for everyone. Soup is so ingrained in Portuguese gastronomy that when I told friends that my toddler never encountered a bowl of soup in the USA over the holidays, their response was consistently, “Wait, what!? Then what did he possibly eat?”
Suggestion: Don’t let a meal pass in Portugal without ordering soup! Every region boasts of their own creation, so get out there and start tasting!

THE DARK

I’ve recently come to the conclusion that the Portuguese must have strong ties to the bat family, because I’ve yet to enter a building that’s fully lit. No, even that’s generous. There’s simply no light! It’s not like they don’t have electricity, because they do. And it’s not as if they don’t appreciate a warm, cozy environment. They love a good fireplace! But after several decades of poverty and recession, light has been deemed an unnecessary expense reserved only for special occasions; hence, on a cloudy, overcast day, you’re screwed. It’s so bad that after having my son in the local hospital, I had to call for help after getting stuck inside the bathroom because I couldn’t locate the handle for the door. (photo by christian.parreira)
Suggestion: Channel your inner bat. Turn off the lights in your house, don a pair sunglasses, and practice maneuvering the space without killing yourself. For the practical among you, simply download a flashlight app to your phone and attach a small torch to your keychain. When in bind, these will save your life.

LANGUAGE

To me, European Portuguese sounds like a drunk Russian hooked up with a Spaniard! The easiest way to understand the sound is to place a large dollop of peanut butter in your mouth and say “shhh” intermittently, and voila, you’re a native speaker! When we first moved to Porto a few years ago, I naively believed that my Spanish would carry me through without a hitch. I was clearly ignorant and smoking crack because it’s not only one of the most difficult latin languages to master, but one of least sensual for me. The one redeeming characteristic is the people themselves. Because of who they are, the language transforms into a sound that ebbs and flows with the ocean. Not my favorite of all languages, but it has its redeeming aspects. Not only that, the majority of the country speaks several languages (including English), so you’re in good hands.
Suggestion: Just about every language tool in existence is geared toward Brazilian Portuguese, which is by no means the same language!! Consequently, I suggest you find a sexy Portuguese lover who can’t speak a lick of English. I’m not promising that the rest of your life will be drama free, but I guarantee that your Portuguese will go from zero to a novel’s worth of vocabulary in no time! Either that or check out this website for several language tools. 

CROSSWALK

Unlike Spain, where the zebra crossing is taken with the utmost seriousness, you might as well sign your will prior to leaving your home country, because the Portuguese have zero idea what a crosswalk is! Why we haven’t substituted the Italians for Portuguese as the most insane and ill equipped to be behind the wheel is beyond me, but I do know that there are ways to survive your trip unscathed. First, never cross the street until the car has come to a full stop. If you go all New York bravado on them, you’ll wind up in a full body cast. Don’t do it unless your 8 feet tall and built like a rugby player. Second, always be on the defensive. Assume that you’re completely invisible, because you are! Whether you’re in a car, or simply walking down the street, this is a mindset that will save your life. 
Suggestion: Either wrap yourself in blinking Christmas lights during your visit or simply remain attentive and alert when near traffic.

CHILDREN WELCOME!

How many times have you gone to a restaurant and either experienced, or watched, a server glance sideways at a child in a judgmental, critical manner? Unless your child is demon’s spawn, prone to fits of passionate fury, tantrums, theft or assault, you’ll never ever find that here. Portugal absolutely adores children of all ages. To give an example of how insanely obsessed they are with tiny humans, I’ve had my son welcomed in michelin starred restaurants, adopted by every grandmother in the country, entertained by medical staff during my routine check-ups, given priority in government offices and totally showered in hugs and kisses at school. When I say that Portugal is filled with some of the nicest people on Earth, I mean it, but this applies 1,000 fold to children. (photo by pedrosimoes7)
Suggestion: If your kid is needing some serious tender loving care, get your family to Portugal!

THE ATLANTIC

Despite Portugal’s snuggly relationship alongside Spain, and its ridiculously hot summers, do not expect a Mediterranean climate throughout the country! The famed warmth can be found on the interior of Portugal, far from the touristy areas, or south near the Straits of Gibraltar. If you’re north of Lisbon, along the 8,000 sq. plus miles of sandy beaches where Mother Nature is both schizophrenic and manic depressive, get prepared. Within a 24 hour period, you may experience gail force winds, gorgeous blue skies, torrential rain and freezing cold temperatures. On a good day, you’ll get two out of four…not bad!
Suggestion: Follow the lead of a Portuguese grandmother and always dress in layers…lots and lots of layers. Zip off pants, t-shirt, wool sweater, rain jacket, hat, etc, you get the idea. Prepare for the worst and expect the best!

COFFEE

Much like Spain, coffee is an integral part of the Portuguese culture. But if you’re envisioning a gargantuan bucket of half skim mocha layered in pixie dust, think again. The Portuguese are straight-shooters and want nothing more than a shot of espresso…period. At their most complicated, it’s an espresso with milk and sugar. Anything beyond this is not only considered blasphemous, but worthy of having your visa revoked. Seriously, don’t do it! Learn to love espresso, because you’ll be injecting it several times a day, alongside a stupidly delicious pastry! 
Suggestion: Keep your coffee simple. Here are a few tips. Otherwise, order fresh squeezed orange juice. It’s absolutely heavenly and won’t instigate caffeine induced seizures. 

STARTERS

“Hello juicy orbs of love! How nice that you’ve graced my table alongside a heap of freshly baked bread and a small terrine of pate. Did they know I adore enormous black olives marinated in rosemary olive oil? Did they have a premonition that I adore grilled chouriço? Does Portugal love me this much that they’re willing to give this away for free?!” Take a breath my friend, because that’s a big, fat NO! Granted, they’re cheap, but not free. Tasting those mouthwatering nibbles is equivalent to a stunning woman wearing Gucci; to ignore her is impossible, but to engage will surely cost you!
Suggestion: First ask yourself, am I really so hungry that I want to sacrifice my appetite for fillers? If the answer is yes, be sure to choose wisely because you should only pay for what you eat; and if that consists of freshly grilled chouriço or juicy canned sardines, rest assured you made a wise choice!

UNADULTERATED KINDNESS

Looking for a country emanating in goodwill and kindness? Welcome to Portugal, a place where even the downtrodden go out of their way to shower you in kindness. Over the course of two years, I’ve been hugged by the homeless, given chocolate cakes by neighbours, blessed by addicts, offered free rides by taxi drivers, had my wallet returned to me intact…twice and have consistently been received with a smiley hello! I’ve even had a dapper man in his 70′s tip his beret, gently wink and say, “Lovely day Miss. I trust it will remain as beautiful as you.” It’s the one country where I’ve adopted the entire elderly population as my own grandparents. It’s that ridiculously loving!! But after decades of building a strong, thick wall of defense, I’ve had to let go of suspicion, ease my way into openness and generally take on a “shower me in love!” approach to life where strangers are simply friends I haven’t met.
Suggestion: Lap it up while you have it, because there aren’t many countries that will treat you so well!
So there you have it! From my short two years living in Portugal, and a decade of visits, this list is a compilation of the nitty gritty as I see it. However, life is subjective, and I am always open to feedback, suggestions, comments as you’ve experienced it. So please, share your story of traveling Portugal!!! And if you want to visit with people who know how to see the real Portugal, give us a ring!
Cheers",

3 dicas para escritores iniciantes / 3 tips to aspiring writers




"1. Tear into it
In her book, Practical Tips for Writing Popular Fiction (Writers Digest), novelist Robyn Carr suggests you study fiction to become a better writer. This is great advice. Read a book once as a dreamer, a second time as detective. Start looking at how other authors are doing it. How do they structure their sentences? How much dialogue do they use? What are the main plot points? Don’t just do it on good books but on those that disappointed you. Try to find the knocks in the engine.
Picasso said to copy others was necessary but to copy yourself is pathetic. That’s a good point. I’m not suggesting you copy or steal other stories – but to look at the structure behind the stories of others. You then start to use this to build your own stories.

Tip: Type out the first page or chapter of a novel you’ve read. You’ll be so close to the work, you’ll see the structure emerge first hand.


2. It’s in the detail
When learning our craft, we learn to pay careful attention to detail. We start to see how important it is to paint our words with the right colour, shape and size. The right detail makes your writing come to life, and helps us build a believable story world.  Sometimes we forget that what we see in our minds as writers isn’t available to the reader – we have to make sure it’s on the page. We learn to gather and organise these so they draw the reader in.

Tip: Visit a coffee shop. Write down all the fascinating and mundane descriptive details. Fill a page or ten pages.  Find the ones that give a mental picture of the place. Choose just five sentences from your pages that give the best ‘snapshot’.


3. Take off the training wheels
Reading and studying about the craft of writing can teach us a lot – and writing is about learning and improving all the time. But ‘studying’ can also turn into a form or procrastination. We don’t get back to our stories and put (perfect) theory into (sometimes-clumsy) practice. 
We all have our own approaches to writing. No one can tell you how writing will work in your life and your career. This is something you have for figure out for yourself.  But as they say: ‘Learn the rules before you break them.’

Tip: Have a Journalist Day. Find the one event in your day – or even a friend’s day – and write a 300-word article, poem or mini-story about it. Give yourself a 5pm deadline. Keep it. Get in the habit to writing to a deadline. 
Making up stories is easy. Finding the language, structure and focus to shape your imagination into a novel, screenplay or short story is a lot of hard work".

Os livros e a depressão / Reading with depression




Depois de ler sobre o modo como os livros ajudam a lidar com a depressão no meio de uma crise, eis uma nova perspectiva: depois da depressão, o que muda na leitura?


Reading, Depression, and Me


Last month, Rioter Amanda wrote about the challenges she had while trying to read during a bout with depression. The post resonated with me particularly hard and at a timely moment. Just days before, I went and got help for depression after years (and years and years) of believing that it was who I was and something that I could manage entirely on my own.
For long periods of my life, hitting low points meant turning to books, rather than turning away from them. I could sit down on a weekend and devour 4 or 5 novels in no time. Sinking into another world, one entirely outside of my head, meant getting away from the disease. I could disconnect from myself. I’ve always been a fan of dark realities, since so often, they’re well beyond any realm I could imagine in my own world. Whatever was causing me pain couldn’t hold a candle to the things I was seeing in fiction.
When you’re in a bad mental place, you reach for comfort wherever you can find it.
I put off getting help not just because I thought I could do it myself. I was also influenced by too-frequently-seen narratives in books — and other media — about mental illness. When you struggle with something like depression or anxiety or both, your brain isn’t functioning normally on any level. You really believe the terrible things your mind is telling you. Regular exposure to the message that seeking help, especially medication, is a sign of weakness and a means of numbing yourself to reality, sinks in. The last thing in the world I wanted as a writer and as a reader was to feel like the things that buoyed me through rough times would be the first things I’d lose when getting better.
After making the excruciatingly hard decision to medicate, I can’t say enough for what a positive difference this has made in my life. Especially my reading and writing life.
I’m enjoying — really, really enjoying — reading and talking about reading in a way that I never have before. It’s not a support system for me. Rather, it’s an engaging, fully-immersiveexperience that I am an active, present part of. I’m still turning to dark books but the way I feel about them is changed. I think I love them even more because I see my world in there.Because I am able to see what is and isn’t reality. I’m coming at stories with a better sense of who I am and what it is I believe, increasing my empathy for characters and choices they make.
There’s a sense of quiet in my head I’ve never had before. That quiet has given me the chance to concentrate and think critically in ways I’ve struggled with in the past. I’m not rushing from idea to idea; instead, I’m able to think through the actions and choices in a story and pluck more carefully and more thoroughly at the strings holding them together. My time with a book extends beyond what it’s bringing me at the moment — escape, comfort — and I’m more able and excited to grapple with ideas days later.
My reading and my writing have both slowed down. But it’s the kind of slowing down that feels good. There’s breathing room and thinking room, with no pressure to hurry up and get through so I can fill those spaces with more things. I’m taking part in enjoyable, richly rewarding activities that fuel and exercise my mind, not just turn it off.
Someone told me that there comes a grieving period when depression/anti-anxiety medication and/or therapy and/or other treatment starts to really work. It’s not grieving about losing who you are; it’s about how much you denied your past self. About how you didn’t give yourself the chance to function but listened to those painful messages your mind fed you.
Depression took me out of my reading life. Recognizing that — and getting help for it — has put me back in in ways I could never have imagined. Reading isn’t about powering through. It isn’t about disconnecting.
Reading is about being a part of something.

O futuro das bibliotecas num mundo digital / "The Future of Librarians in an EBook World"

"In an environment where we are continually being solicited to buy, click on, or otherwise consume products selected for us by algorithms (which often make ridiculous and even insulting suggestions), the presence of a guiding human sensibility seems more valuable than ever. A good librarian, unlike the monetizing formulas employed by Google or Amazon or Facebook, is not only capable of independent thought, he or she is also committed to nurturing critical thinking in others. All the technological bells and whistles a library can employ are pretty much worthless if there’s no one minding the store".

Este é o excerto de um artigo pertinente sobre os desafios que hoje se colocam às bibliotecas. Leia na íntegra AQUI.

O fétiche por imagens de livros na internet / The fetish of book images on the internet

Eu pertenço a este clube! :)


Face Out: The Curious Rise of Bibliographics
Suzy Staubach



What does the proliferation of sites, books, and blogs celebrating images of books say about our relationship with the printed word?


While we debate whether reading a book printed on paper or via an e-reader is preferable, a fetish of book images has emerged here in the U.S. and in Europe, manifesting itself both online and in print books themselves. It has permeated Facebook, Pinterest, Tumblr, and beyond.

There is clearly a deep and widespread fascination with these images, representations of books, mirrors that cannot themselves be read. I admit that I’ve been pulled in, fascinated, looking, posting, but I still wonder what it signifies.

First, let’s take a quick tour.

The web site My Ideal Bookshelf (www.myidealbookshelf.com), which is also a book, features paintings of book spines by Jane Mount. The artist says she “paints portraits of people through the spines of books,” believing the books a person chooses to display tell a lot about him or her. On the site, you can commission an original painting by Mount in gouache on fine watercolor paper, framed or unframed, of your own favorite books. You can also order a painting for a friend or order notecards and prints of her earlier bookshelf portraits.

The companion book, My Ideal Bookshelf (9780316200905), features Mount’s paintings of the spines of books selected by dozens of well-known writers, such as Michael Chabon and Jennifer Eagan. The bright paintings, one shelf for each author, with a row of books against a white background, are an intimate peek at writers’ reading habits. Looking at Mount’s art, I found myself wanting a painting of my books too, although my house is awash in books.

Bookshelf (9780500516140) by Alex Johnson showcases modern and highly original bookshelves. There are “library” shelves that look like buildings and “pallet” shelves that look like, well, pallets, and shelves made of stainless steel or polyurethane. This is a heavily illustrated book, ostensibly for sophisticated designers who, as a professional matter, use books as presentation. Again, this is about images.

And then there’s Bookshelf Porn. In January 2009, Anthony Dever created his visual blog (http://bookshelfporn.com) using Tumblr “to allow people to indulge their love of books, libraries, bookstores, and bookcases by showcasing the best bookshelf photos from around the world.”

I think the notion of equating looking at and lusting after beautiful bookshelves filled with books with pornography is a keen insight into the increasing popularity of images of books and bookish things. Have books become objects of desire or is it the representation of books that is desired? Bookshelf Porn also has a strong presence on Facebook and Pinterest and was chosen by Time magazine as one of the 25 best blogs of 2012. The blog’s Facebook page has more than 52,000 likes—that’s 52,000 people looking at Facebook posts of bibliographics every day, often several times a day.

The Book Riot web site (http://bookriot.com) is devoted to lists and recommendations of books to read. Its Facebook page (www.facebook.com/BookRiot?fref=ts), however, is intensely visual, with frequent posts of images and quotes about books, reading, bookstores, and bookshelves. The posts are so good, it’s tempting to share all of them on your own or your bookstore’s page. Based in Brooklyn, Book Riot has a staff and attracts advertising. Its Facebook page boasts almost 33,000 likes.

Pinterest is a feast of book visuals, with many boards and pinners devoted to images of bookstores, libraries, books in art, quotes about books, bookshelves, other things made to look like books, people reading, and on and on. For starters, there’s Book Patrol, Book Expo, Bibliophilia, ABA, and many bookstore pinners focusing on book images as well as individuals with boards devoted to book images. I’m not talking about book-cover pins, which are essentially promotional, but delicious photos of books in every guise.

Tattered Cover has close to 3,000 followers of its many images on Pinterest. Why are all these people looking at pictures of benches made to look like books, earrings in the shape of books, cozy booklined rooms, bookmobiles, Middle Eastern bookstalls, and more?

Two recent illustrated books for people who love ogling images of beautiful rooms filled with books are Living with Books (9780500290309) by Dominique Dupuich and Roland Beaufre and Books Make a Home (9781849751872) by Damian Thompson. These are dream-books for those of us who don’t have houses large enough for separate library rooms or the funds to purchase all the books we would like to own.

Dreaming may explain the astonishing proliferation of book and book-related images and the many people flocking to them. I wonder if the images are a fantasy fulfillment of our desires. Are they salve for the unconscious fears that lurk in our reader souls as we spend our frantic days working in an increasingly technological world? Is it easier, less time-consuming in our time-pressed days, to feel admirably bookish by looking at these images rather than by actually reading? Are the people looking at and sharing and posting these images just book people looking for one more literary high? Is it a fad?

It’s certainly interesting that the surge of bibliographics coincides with the rise of e-books and the Internet. They are a different flavor of virtual.

As perplexed as I am about how to interpret what this means for our culture as a whole, neither do I know what it means for the physical books on our bookstore shelves or the e-books on our web sites. However, there is no question that representations of books are capturing the imaginations of many.

Whatever the meaning, as an extension of the book culture in which we already participate as purveyors of books, we cannot let ourselves be left behind. Perhaps it’s time to join the cult of bibliographics ourselves?
