sooooo, finally I got to make this one, like with the journaling, I kept thinking what and something that I discovered in the past 3 years kept driving me to this. Up until 3 maybe 4 years ago, I would have said with total assertiveness that I would have never chosen to come to live in the UK. I lived for a few years in Spain, Madrid and Palma de Mallorca, and that especially Mallorca have a lot more that make me comfortable le than London. Don't get me wrong, I am hugely grateful for all the UK has given me which is a LOT, especially as one of the main is my daughter, and now it feels home, as one of mine...but our cultures are so different, lots of stuff that I made conscious in the 30 years I have been living here, mainly (and yes, totally mainly) the weather. I'm tropical, we, Sarita too, love summer heat, we were at home in north east Brazil where summer heat means 40 Celsius in the shade... and don't deal well with cold. But in the past few years, I started seeing all the unconscious stuff (and this I reckon I have to thank the countless scrap booking challenges that make me look into things I haven't thought in 20 years or more) how much of my growing up, and further on life pointed to Britain. Here are just some of things I love and that shaped my personality, there are so many more, writers and performers especially, but I went for images I already had so I could finish in time. I loved so much the Photo List challenge, I went for the same format

Love how you make this layout, the choose of the picture, the police type and the colors, it's just perfect and your story is really interesting! I guess it's not easy to have some big culture difference but you go through very well and I ;ove how you explain it! So inspiring my friend!:)
 
I love how you share with us from the heart! Thank you! What a wonderful layout (with lots of nostalgia for me) and journey. Love, love, love!
 
What a great idea for a page! Love the pics of all the influences and your journaling to go along with each. And love the themed elements. Wonderful page!
 
Oh I love your layout and I love the story behind it! I can't even imagine what a difference it is to have to get used to Britain when you can from such a tropical paradise like Brasil.
I love how you created your layout though. I love that you have found some things to love about Britain as well, like Mary Poppins, which I LOVE too.
Oh your layout just puts a smile upon my face. Fun and beautiful, as always!
