  2. Congrats on your one year honey! I truly enjoy reading your blog and seeing your projects! BTW, I am thinking of maybe going to Brazil for New years!...I am going to do research, but it's something I have always wanted to do and what better place to celebrate it then in one of the most exotic countries in the world!
