Back from (insert country name here)


Once you spend three days of non-stop diplomatic activity, you just feel you want to be hit by a gavel...


Briefly, you could say that what you do inside four walls contributes next to zero in the solving of current world affairs. Well... sort of. One does what one can, or rather, what the circumstances allow one to. In that sense, some productivity is possible, but well. I tried to upload this yesterday as a means of making an act of self relief. Experiences end up being the summarisation of acts projected through a memory in the form of vague and blurry images; eating fejoada (however you write it) and mango, reading Susan Sontag and leaving a book behind.

This reporter rest his case
