Seasonal Readings

For me there are Summer books and Winter books, Autumn books and Spring books. There's books for every season of the year. Summer has began so it is time to grab my Summer books and start reading them!
In my collection I have got a few books that have Summer written all over them and because I haven't been reading a lot this year, I decided that I want to read all my Summer books. (How many times can I write "Summer" and "books"?...)

These are the books I'll be attempting to go through this Summer:

1. Estou Nua, E Agora?
2. On The Road
3. Paper Towns
4. Férias em Saint Tropez (in english: There's Something About St. Tropez)

I will be sure to update anyone who is interested in knowing how the reading unfolds... but for now au revoir and good readings!

Festival Season

Less than two weeks from now I am going to be attending a Summer Music Festival called NOS Alive. This festival takes place in Lisbon (Portugal) every year and it is a 3 day festival. This year it will present us - the audience - with a variety of artists. If you'd like to know who the artists are here's the link to where you can find that: NOS Alive Artists.

I am going to be attending the 3 days because there's an artist each day that I want to see. During the first day a lot of people will be performing but I am only interested in seeing the brilliant James Bay. Then on the second day I want to listen to the great music of the great Kodaline. And finally on the third and final day I want to sing along to the beautiful songs of Sam Smith.
Obviously I will be watching some of the other artists as well but I am going to see these 3 artists primarily.

I will be vlogging the 3 days and I will most likely combine the footage into one video which will be going up on my second channel - Carolina Rosa.

I am not sure when will the footage be up but I'll try to upload it on the 12th of July so keep your eyes peeled on that day.

Comment down below if you're excited for festival season - which I am aware has already started but for me it only starts in July.

Greece Colours

Summer officially starts tomorrow and to celebrate that I thought I'd do a little blogpost about one very special item that I've purchased just yesterday. It is this beautiful wallet from Parfois that just has this stunning pattern and some of the happiest colours of this season!

I had to buy this new wallet because my previous one is about 3 years old and although I took really good care of it, it had to break - the zipper - someday and that day was yesterday.

This new wallet of mine cost me 13€, which I think is a very nice price for a beautiful day to day item.

I bought it mainly because I love the colors and the pattern - and obviously I needed a new one. In terms of size it perfectly matches my expectations but in terms of the space inside I think it is between average and good. And I say this just because I am not the biggest fan of the card holding section... but apart from that I think it is really good!

The pattern and colors remind me a lot of Greece. Unfortunately I have never been to Greece but I have a great passion for it and when I was about 12/13 I decided that I'd spend my honeymoon in Greece. Funnily enough the movie "Mamma Mia" - which is one of my favourite movies of all time - had just premiered and the first time I watched it I felt the need to go to Greece. So I think my love for Greece came a little bit from that!

I am absolutely and madly in love with my new wallet and I love that I bought it just when Summer's about to start! It is in the most beautiful Summer colours and I feel a great deal of joy, happiness, passion and confidence whenever I look at it! I great purchase in my opinion!
