Hey, guys! I’m sorry there were no blog posts in November. I spent a lot of time working on the website layout (I hope you like it!) and some new pages, such as Sanrio Pixel Art and the Favourites section. I must also admit that I received some really nice feedback from my recent posts, especially My Thoughts on Indie Web and Web Revival. I tried countless times to write another post like that one, but nothing quite came together. Then, I realised I had completely lost sight of my original purpose: seeking fun, not views. Funny, isn’t it?
When I decided to create this blog and finally launched my first post two weeks ago, the only motivation was to reclaim my personal space on the web. I have been talking to my late Millennial/early Gen Z friends and we all share the same thoughts on social media: we are all sick and tired of it. We all miss those times when the internet meant freedom, the online spaces allowed us to be more creative, no algorithms were used to define what we should or shouldn’t read, etc.
I have been to Belfast twice for a few days, and it’s already one of my favourite cities. It was my very first time travelling by train, and now it makes me really sad how there are no trains in Brazil — it’s simply the cheapest and most comfortable way to travel long distances. The landscapes are breathtaking and there are no worries about the size of your luggage.
After leaving the train station, we went to St George’s Market. It has got everything from antiques to handmade scarves and local food. I bought myself a scarf since I didn’t have one (it’s in my profile picture!). Now I am all focused on creating a whole new wardrobe of winter clothes.
Our next stop was the gorgeous and amazing City Hall. There is a museum inside it and it’s free, definitely worth the visit.
I know Belfast is famous for the Titanic Museum, and the James Cameron movie is one of my obsessions, so of course we went there. However, to my surprise, it wasn’t the most remarkable thing about our visit. I was expecting more displays of actual objects found in the sea, but there were very few. The museum is focused on an “interactive” exhibition, with information totems, buttons, and even a tiny roller-coaster inside. It was very crowded, so it was impossible to explore all of them.
Most museums are like that these days because it’s more “Instagrammable”, but it’s such a loss for our culture. I want to learn from museums, I don’t want to take pretty pictures and completely forget about them later.

Prettiest bus everUlster Museum
My favourite museum is certainly the Ulster Museum. It’s so big you need more than three hours to see everything. Unlike the Titanic Museum, it has loads of antique objects, the history of Northern Ireland and even a mummy. I tried to take some pictures, but the lighting always reflected in the glass shields. I might as well say I didn’t take any pictures because I was having so much fun.
Our last stop after the Ulster Museum was a lovely café. I had rhubarb crumble and pumpkin spice latte for the first time. It was delicious, but again, no pictures. 🙁 In my defence, now that I am running this blog, I will try to take more pictures!
I’m glad I could write a post for this blog, you know, the first post never counts. Now the good part starts! Yay!
