20 years without the Berlin Wall...
Berlim, 20 anos depois
Não conheço cidade com tanta história contemporânea como Berlim.
Porta de Brandemburgo (Brandenburg Tor) e Pariser Platz
A minha primeira vez (e única, até hoje) que visitei Berlim foi assim um despertar de sentidos em todas as direcções. Foi duranteAbril de 2006, altura em que a cidade mais parecia um estaleiro, com incontáveis obras para o Campeonato Mundial de Futebol, que se iniciaria daí a dois meses.(...)

A joke
An Englishman went to Spain on a fishing trip. He hired a Spanish guide to help him find the best fishing spots. Since the Englishman was learning Spanish, he asked the guide to speak to him in Spanish and to correct any mistakes of usage.
They were hiking on a mountain trail when a very large, purple and blue fly crossed their path. The Englishmen pointed at the insect with his fishing rod, and said, "Mira el mosca!" The guide, sensing a teaching opportunity, replied, "No, senor, 'la mosca'... es feminina."
The Englishman looked at him, then back at the fly, and then said, "Good heavens... you must have incredibly good eyesight."
