In a recent interview I had the privilege of having Fairen as my interviewer, and one of the questions was why I am a blogger. I said it was a way to share my thoughts, which is entirely true, but I´ve decided to “dive” more on the subject.
In my Portuguese blog I have published more than 14200 posts, and looking at them I notice that many are about politics, economy and sports but the main issues are music, movies and book reviews: About 1100 records, over 4600 songs, more than 800 movies and more than 200 books reviewed, in addition to specific issues such as:
“Some Curiosities About The World of Music “: 83 posts (first post published on February 8, 2014)
“Stories of the Oscars”: 36 posts (first post published on March 12, 2010):
“Greatest Guitarists Ever”: 31 posts, (first post published on February 15, 2016)
“Greatest Drummers Ever” : 11 posts (first post published on June 21, 2016)
“On Saturday,” where I publish one iconic image and I explain its meaning and history (first post published on September 3, 2016)
All for what ? Not only to share my thoughts, but also (and this might sound a bit arrogant) to left some kind of a “own DNA”.
I know that Portuguese is not accessible to everyone, but it’s my language. If I think posting in English some of these thoughts? It is not out of question, soon I will write about this subject on my blog The Other Soul, although the future belongs to God …
I can hardly wait to look into the other blogs (more links, please). I thrive with music also and love practicing Portuguese. hmmm… the only phrase I remember this moment is is my sister-in-law entering the house from work saying, “Onde está a mulher feia da casa?” It’s said with love 😉

I love “onde está a mulher feia da casa?”, which means “where is the ugly housewife?” :):)

I liked the interview with Pedro. This is the only way we truly get to understand the perspective from which other bloggers blog and why. Thanks.
