My holiday || As minhas férias
It’s taking me a while to settle down this time… But let me tell a little bit more about my holiday! We went to Hawaii!! It was perfect, brilliant, divine… I have no words to describe the beauty of Hawaii, all the Aloha spirit and how good it was to be there. Hawaii is all about colours, patterns, flowers, happiness… I’m so inspired that I’m making a Hawaiian Kumpel Doll 
We also visit San Francisco and Chicago, two great cities with lots of things to do, see and buy!! San Francisco is very nice, very cozy and cute with the up and down streets and all the water so close. Chicago is very different but I love it! It has such a good vibe, and all those buildings, the amazing Art Institute of Chicago and the great night life.
I bought some things during this trip. Things for me and, of course, crafty things! During my many visits to Barnes & Nobles and to Borders I was about to loose my mind with so many crafty books!!! It was insane, paper crafts, knitting, sewing, plush… there were books about nearly everything!! I had to control myself not to boy to much stuff, because the luggage was already quite heavy!
Bottom line: this were super days… I got so relaxed and I enjoyed all the time I was away… It was about 26-28ºC in Hawaii and about -2-1ºC in Chicago but even that was fine to me! If I could only travel all the time 
Some photos:

Por falta de tempo este post é só em inglês…as minhas desculpas. Felizmente, as fotografias falam por si
