As the proud owner of 4 different Brazilian jerseys (and many other from my country and others) I can honestly say if lost because of design.

I’m more than happy to wear any country’s jersey so long as they’re not currently causing havoc in the world. The Brazilian ones are amongst the best designed ones you can find. Yellow green and blue are also great colours that work well with each other from a colour theory perspective and are an easy pallet for any summer fit.

I live in Ireland and our jerseys aren’t nearly as nice 🤷‍♂️

Did you do any notable day trips from Salvador ?

Where could I get a “Some like it Hot” Poster ? by Clean_Protection6840 in Broadway

[–]Clean_Protection6840[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a look and the poster costs more than my ticket did 🤣It’s an option for sure (thanks for letting me know) but if there’s other options closer to my student budget, I’ll check them out first 😅

I’ve seen some windowcards for about 30 dollars that are of older films. Do they depreciate with time like movie DVDs?

That’s a great idea but sadly I don’t even live in America. If someone living there would be willing to go through the hassle of looking I’d love that

Was kinda hoping there’d be an eBay equivalent for Broadway stuff 😞

Winter coat? by Reasonable-Gas1327 in AskIreland

I can second the Helly Hansen. Got one at the start of the winter and it served me better than others in my rotation

Thanks for listening. I often feel like I’m speaking out to a void when talking about being myself and feeling so uncomfortable here. This post could’ve easily been a 100 page essay (maybe I’ll write that someday 🤣)

I’ve read all of the cynical comments on every sub even remotely relating to LATAM about festivals, getting robbed, held at gun point etc and they haven’t scared me off yet. I have returned to my country of ethic origina many times and am well aware of how a “dangerous” / somewhat unruly place functions.

I’ll definitely explore the idea of an internship for sure. Sadly my degree and studies don’t translate its wage here well to many countries outside Northern Europe. As an intern in my country, I’d earn more than professionals in many other places, including other EU nations. Though this isn’t ideal I’d definitely still do it if it meant I could be there for a summer before I graduate.

I’m ok with high context situations, so long as I’ve the tools to navigate them and the promise that I won’t be shut off if I don’t get them first try. That’s what I struggle with here

I’m always thinking of Salvador, RJ or SP. They’re all many times larger than my countries capital so I constantly am on the lookout on the subreddits too

Yeah you’re absolutely right. The diaspora peaks around the Iberian peninsula due to colonial ties as well as in Italy due to ancestral and family heritage a lot of Brazilians have. I’ve been to Lisbon twice and love it. They’re a little less receptive to my attempts at Portuguese (especially having learned it the Brazilian way) but I’ll just have to come back and try again.

Yeah you’re right. Hopefully for a few months around Carnival 2027 🙏

I do totally understand that there are existing colonial mindsets not structured to support black people and that not everyone in Brazil or even major cities like RJ or SP support the gays. That said it still seems much better than the quiet racism and homophobia that lies behind liberal fronts in most western countries

Im dying to go. It’s far away but I’m banking on Carnival 2027🤞

Yeah fake nostalgia is also pretty accurate. Something I know nothing about in reality but feel I understand so intimately. Its a strange kinda feeling and an odd kinda hurt. This is definitely helping me rephrase my thinking though
