A little bit behind schedule for my monthly recap post, but for a good reason: the last week was spent recharging batteries, thinking about life, and being a tourist in my own country. I've visited a coastal

The title pretty much sums this day! Morning came, and the crazy winds from yesterday were replaced by a soft breeze; so off I went to finally enjoy some beach time. On the other side of the river that

Well, in fact, only tomorrow will my vacations end; but since I have some free time now, might as well put it to good use. Already reached my last destination, a location with a huge beach in front, although

I love to travel and going on vacations, but it's not that common at all to feel that I need it. Well, now was one of those times. Dealing with serious health issues from a close family member (hopefully

Back on the road, but in a different way! Every year, as part of the celebrations that happen once a year marking the county's anniversary, one of the main roads accessing Lisboa (my country's capital)

Ok, seems like I had a decent start this season; still battling in gold league, but with a within normal win rate so far. Let's hope it stays that way! As for a broader picture of the coming Splinterlands

Well, the title says it all!: for this week's SMAP, birds on wires is what we want to see! And fortunately, for anyone that likes to photograph these guys, our #featheredfriends tend to like wires very

Well, nothing unusual, to be honest. My tendency to procrastinate added to having had a few more complicated weeks equals to... still not having a clue on what to do in my next vacations! But still plenty

I just achieved the goal of reaching 50 season chests... but with my worst win rate EVER! It seems nowadays I'm only facing pro players (bots?) with maxed or near-maxed decks. At least, unlike the league

Doing hiking trails is one of my favourite ways to spend free time, and with my vacations around the corner, decided to revisit hiking trails explored long ago. Not as long as to predate colour photos,

Weee, free theme for this week's SMAP! It has been a while since I posted for SMAP; couldn't find decent photos to fit last prompts, but no excuses now! So, fresh from my last birdwatching session (that

So, how's the great burning working for you? Have you joined in? We're still a long way from the end of the event, and the amount of burned DEC is insane: almost 500 million DEC, between DEC and DEC-B,

...se has conocido la felicidad! These were the lyrics of a song from a band called Charanga Habanera, that seemed to play non-stop during my vacations in Cuba... 13 years ago! Seems a lifetime away, but

Slow and steady wins the race... right? Well, I can say I'm in a race, but just one to reach my goals! And it's crazy to think how close I am to reaching them. Last months was my 5th year hiveversary,

I probably had the hardest season yet, since I started playing Splinterlands! True, I had less time to play these couple weeks; but still, I struggled to get out of Gold league, and only managed to reach

My last nature getaway was around one month ago. In the middle of Spring, the perfect timing: flowers and bushes blooming everywhere! And by the rosemary, these little ones were minding their business,

Ever been to a place that brings you back in time? I'm not a car fanatic, by far; I would gladly skip cars and motos entirely if I could just ride a bicycle everytime. But when I visited Cuba, the classic

Splinterlands is turning 5!! Amazing how time passes by. I still remember gathering steem back then to be able to buy the summoner's spellbook (I turned 5 on the blockchain last month, so Splinterlands

I had dinner today with a friend I hadn't seen for some time now. He's almost in his sixties, and at some point our conversation digressed about how one approaches work and the consequences of working

Some creatures are really strange, and it has been a while since I've encountered this particular one. When I was wayyy younger and spent basically all my holidays in my grandparent's village, seeing them
