nobre! 🐦🔥 (e sim, prazos matam a criatividade. por aqui, decidi que a frequência será semanal, mas sem datas e prazos - quero escrever como eu escrevo, no tempo que escrevo). ansioso pra semana que vem! ☕
Melhor decisão, meu amigo, não ter data fixa. Sinceramente, os leitores não ligam tanto assim pra isso. Bato sempre na tecla: o importante é o conteúdo.
I’ve always refused calling myself a nomad, even if people insist on putting a label on what I was (am?) doing. For me, it’s just part of who I am. I’ve been in Brazil for two months now too, staying here and there with friends. Still no address. But, for me, that’s just life, I don’t know, is kind of a natural movement. Maybe because I like to live my life in cycles, with no deadline to end. Tks for sharing your perspective!
That's perfect, Juliana. I used to describe myself as nomad for some specific reasons, like my parents, or to introduce myself in Substack. But it annoyed me a lot. I am not a nomad, I am Mateus, who likes to travel, to write, to read, to make friends, who needs to work.
I'm always impressed by the number of pearls of wisdom you are able to come up with! You did that a lot in our interview and you just threw another one in this very newsletter: "Nomads are like atheists: a minority. A home, like religion, brings comfort and security." Ahaha I love that! Great issue as always!
Wow, Caterina, that's such a great compliment! I will describe myself from now as a writer who has "pearls of wisdom to share"! I say the same about Freedom Focus, I always read and get really impressed by every single word. I really like the English expression "like-minded people" and I am absolutely convinced that I found in you and Freedom Focus a like-minded people. Thank you, Substack, for that.

I'll continue reading. Keep on the great ride :)
Thank you! There is nothing more important for one who writes reading that.

I feel exactly the same!!
The hand game is so sweet. creating parallel lives and 'sliding doors' moments !
Yeah, Barbs, that is so sweet. The kids are so brilliant. It was, maybe, the smartest thing I have done in all my life! haha
I think the title of your Substack says it all, Mateus (and it's great)--- No Direction Home! couldn't be a better title at all.
Wow, Jeanine, thank you! It motivates me a lot to keep writing about this No Direction Life.
It seems like you are figuring it out as you go along. And that's kinda what life is, no?
Figuring out where things fit in and how to deal w/ all? Saludos!
