Hoje.

Finalmente, today. 07.14.07.

Lauren arrived early this morning. A fellow Longhorn and Brasilophile - she´s been working in Recife at Lula´s office, another UT architect, but this one a Brasilian artista with an incredible firm in the historical neighborhood of Olinda. He will be a design professor along with Jay Sanders. She and Taia have already been talking away, and I know that the language immersion will be incredible for all of us.

And now I am here. At the moment, Taia has gone with the women to Porto de Sauipe, where his family has an incredible house one the beach. I will nap soon, and await our next querida, Sarah, and instrutor da cultura, Wes.
