Diva How hot does it get where you live during the summer? We had a temperature of 36 degrees Celsius today, and let me tell you, we're just not used to that kind of heat here in London, UK!

🗨️ Fui Yeah. The famous Galo da Madrugada. Do you believe I have never been to it? I'm here 7 years now and never found the will or the guts to join that folly. But everyone tells me it's a great experience -- you included.

🗨️ Fui No, it's not my thing. But this year I allowed myself to participate on one of the 'previas' (prequels) of Olinda's carnival. And mind you, even being like two weeks ahead the main event, I found it overwhelming. At one point I was being carried away by the crowd, having little to no control where I would go. At one point I felt so hot and sweat that I thought "this is hell -- and I'm loving it!". But when I cooled my head off a bit afterwards, I realized it was not for me.
