Enjoyed a visit to the Casa das Rosas right in downtown SΓ£o Paulo on Avenida Paulista. Finished in 1935 and occupied by the builder’s family until the mid-1980s. Now it’s open to the public and free to visit! More pics on insta.

My tradition on overnight United flights, especially going over the equator, is to have the grilled cheese and tomato soup snack midway through. Pro tip: ask them to put the soup in a mug, much easier to handle πŸ˜‹

Bom dia! Standard scrambled eggs brekkie. Nothing out of the ordinary but a nice cup of tea always wakes me up.
