SunThursday by @lizanomadsoul - From my balcony, East Timor
Hi, Steemians around there, here is my photo for today's Steemit challenge, SunThursday, by @lizanomadsoul
As you know, my friends, I'm home in Portugal for holidays... I'm happy as a sun, as I am with my kids. Next week I'm heading back to East Timor, where I work and it's my second home. There I have the most amazing view from my balcony. I miss it already! Cheers, my friends, have a great 2018!

Thanks, @lizanomadsoul :)

So I finally get to see the view from your balcony 😍 It's beautiful and peaceful - there are no buildings to distract the eye.
By the way, I just finished The Book of Disquiet by Fernando Pessoa. What a fantastic read!
Indeed, Dan, I always say I'm not gonna have another view like this in my life... :)). I Have hundreds of photos from my balcony, as there are never two days alike, as you know. That's the beauty of nature, and of photography, being able to always capture different moments!
I'm happy you loved The Book of Disquiet. I have it in Portuguese and is something from the outer world. Fernando Pessoa is one of the best poets of the world. So glad you read it! I'd love to have the book in English too, it'd be an amazing experience to read it.
I'll try to find and buy it, as, furthermore, I also present poetry in English and Portuguese on my website, especially from Portuguese authors. It would be great to be able to present the amazing writing of the The Book of Disquiet.
Thanks for your comment, my dear friend, it made my day! Cheers!
It is from the outer world :) I read it in English, but I kept thinking how much more beautiful it would be in Portuguese. No matter how good they are, translations always take away from the power of the original work. Unfortunately, I don't speak Portuguese.
I'll check the poetry section on your website, and I'm happy that I made your day :) Cheers!
You're right, translations are always poorer than the originals. Even if they are good, and many times they are. Thanks for taking the time to check out my website. It has a search field, so you can search by poetry and easily get to them :)). Thanks, my friend.
Or obrigada ;)... But I think this Portuguese word you already know ;))
By the way, I can't find the poetry section. Am I doing something wrong?
Dear Dan, there is no poetry section. I post poetry on the blog (home page) around once a week. For finding the posts you have to search for poetry on the tag cloud section or write poetry on the search field.
Now for something different: are you experiencing any issues here on Steemit? I'm a bit worried because in my Steemd my reputation went down to 25 and have no bandwidth left. And in the blog, in the wallet section, the 25 appears also and my nick nolasco instead of hippiesoul! It's so weird! Should I get worried? Or it's a kind of temporary bug? Sorry for this inconvenience, but I needed to ask for support, I still get terrified when I think I can get flagged or downvoted by some whale or so...
Thanks for your comment and help!
Hey @nolasco, I am experiencing the very same bug on Steemit, and I don't think it's something to be worried about. Maybe something in the code got messed up while they were working on improving the UI :) Let's wait and see if they are going to fix it.
Aw, ok, thanks and let's pray :)). Cheers, my friend!
Oh, now I saw the pic in your comment... I've tried also and you're right, most tags have disappeared! I'll check it out with the guy that supports me on the site!
Thanks, my friend!
How nice! No wonder you have many Indonesia pictures 😊
Yes, that's why ;)... Thanks, my friend!
Love the colour in this. Amazing.
Thanks so much!
Its beatiful <3
Thanks kindly :))
