Relax, everything’s fine

“If his eyes are a bit too hot, a bit too bold, this is still a matter of interpretation. If the girl doesn’t like it she has only to be rude and move off. But why shouldn’t the girl like it? Mike is flattering her with his attention. In effect he is saying, ‘You interest me. I want to know you better. You’re the only woman here I care about.’
For, in addition to his flattering attention to this woman, Mike never makes the mistake of spreading his interest. He narrows his focus and speaks to only one woman, and he makes the impact of his body language all the stronger for it. Half the time, when Mike leaves with the girl of his choice, she hardly needs any persuasion. By that time a simlpe, ‘Let’s go!’ is enough.“

Oh, the treasures one finds in other people’s book shelves. Here’s Body Language by Julius Fast from 1971.  Relax, but pay attention. And you might find out who will leave with whom.

Pictures and Sleep Party People

image

Maputo is cloudy today after yesterday’s storm, and I’m soon going back to FACIM. It’s the last day today and I expect to get promotional T-shirts, bags and random business cards thrown at me all day, as in the ending of most expo’s.

Anyway, while relaxing at home yesterday I found a song that I would like to share with you.


This messy little beat was released a month ago by Andrea x Kodak To Graph and it’s called Pictures. The tune is so random that I can’t really think of in what occasion it would be perfect to listen to. Other than now, that is. I guess it’s one of those songs that you would put in a “random” or, as in my case “Pretty Much Amazing” playlist on your iPod and look up at those moments when you’re not really sure what you want to listen to. Yes, that’s exactly what this song is for: For when you’re looking forward to something great, without yet knowing what it is. Ha!

The second song goes in the same playlist. Here’s Sun Glitters featuring vocals from Danish Sleep Party People, edited by Tours. The song has been named Alone. I would say it gives the feeling of the good kind of alone, though.

This one was released 10 days ago, and I don’t know if you noticed, but there are download buttons up there. The artists are sharing these fresh pieces of art, awesomely, legally and for free. Because sharing is caring. Ciao!

Last days at FACIM

image

Tons of people here – and of course, UNICEF is still around as well, tomorrow is the last day of FACIM. On my first day, when passing by the Turkish pavilion, I told the hosts there how much I like their coffee and got the promise that I could get a bag of the coffee they serve in the pavilion if I come by in the end of the fair.

And guess what, they kept their promise!

To the rescue

Things that will save you if you are going to sleep after sunrise in a house where the family with two loud little children will be waking up in one hour.

What a great night, really. We visited three different clubs and only stopped dancing when the sun came up. The new girls were teaching me some steps and a Malawian dance that looks like: “ouch, I’ve hurt my back!” So much fun.

Boa noite.

Prime time

image

I love being able to come in after a proper breakfast and then sit in the office until late, which is my prime time in terms of productivity. In the Embassy I always had to be in at 7.30 and leave before all the diplomats had left.. Here, I can just stay around as long as I want to, listen to music, and keep on working – managing my own time. #likeabaws.
