Hi, I'm Maira and this is my attempt at old-fashioned personal blogging in the era of social media overload. I'm a Brazilian-Swedish futures day trader and programmer (and former wedding photographer!) currently based in Valencia, Spain. 🇧🇷🇸🇪🇪🇸
I've been blogging on and off for 20+ years now, from everything from linux to apartment hunts and culture shocks after living in five different countries. (Un)Fortunately, I really enjoy my analog life away from screens, which invariably leads to me quitting any and every blog I start...
Here we go again. This time I'll write about unambitious, mundane things. My happy things. Photography, travels, my dogs, learning piano, gardening, baking... Maybe trading (we'll see about that). The kind of personal stuff I'd share with my mom on social media, but without the ads. 👽🖖
