Ricemagic
Loving freedom. Interesting city, interesting people. [We are elitist, individualist, arrogant, young and we are proud of it]. Let’s keep rational, let’s change emotions, let’s remain romantic.

The Concert of Scissor Sisters...
...was a whole lot of fun. It was a pity they didn't play my favorite song from the second album - The Other Side - and one of its most funromantic songs - Might Tell You Tonight. Ana Matronic said the Coliseu dos Recreios de Lisboa was the most beautiful venue where Scissor Sisters had played in Europe. She also said it was as if we all were inside a great spaceship. The first time I was in Coliseu I also had the same impression: we are inside a gigantic spaceship!
One of the maddest moments during the event was when Jake Shears climbed to the second balcony (on the left in the picture) singing all the time.
The band was enthusiastic and the music was great.
Pictures of Italy
Ricemagic was in Firenze, Italy and also one day in Pisa. Here are some pictures.

The Carabinieri drive no less than these beautiful and powerful Alfa-Romeo...
... while some Italian citizens drive cellulars with two or three wheels...

Firenze is beautiful
I feel so lonely here with my big hands... I would like so much to have some paparazzi around me but unfortunately it is forbidden to take pictures of me...
Campanile di Giotto
When the Carabinieri go for a ride, they go on no less than BMW motorbikes
The main entrance of Palazzo Vecchio...
... and a view of its tower.
Pisa: approaching the Piazza dei Miracoli
A view of Torre di Pisa

Pictures of Estonia
Ricemagic was in Estonia in March. Here are the promised pictures.
Estonia’s National Flag
A view of Tallinn’s main square
At the city center
An adorable pub experience
The Castle of Kadrioru in Tallinn
The main Russian church
Tallinn’s skyline seen from Viimsi
Tallinn is beautiful (a simple sentence is the best and more than a simple sentence isn’t necessary)
Estonian women are even more beautiful than these beautiful girls
And they like babies very much
One should be very carefull with Estonian squirrels
Eduard Wiiralt: We fell in love with the art of Eduard Wiiralt and we would like that it would be much more famous than it presently is
A little forest in Viimsi (10 Km from Tallinn)
A typical Estonian landscape (in the extreme South-East)
These balls are alive and they have their own story...
In Estonia there is wifi everywhere, even in the most unexpectable places and a 24 hour voucher costs about 1 euro!
The beach along the bay of Tallinn
This is not in Portugal! This is Estonia!
This is where we, some people from Tartu and a Polish girl that knew of Alfama and Madredeus welcomed the Spring at 6:30 a.m. singing in the city of Tartu
Tartu’s main avenue
Helsinkki is like Madrid, so if you haven’t been to Madrid, here it is how it looks like. (Be carefull, though, that the people from Madrid and Helsinkki's are not the same.). Helsinkki is a city in Finland and Finland is not a province of Estonia (just to be sure that no doubts remain or arise or...).
A typical Estonian house somewhere in Estonia
Somewhere in Estonia
The national park of the swamps was totally overwhelming for its heavenly beauty. The sheeps lead the way. This is the perfect place for an infinitelove declaration
A thin wall of trees
Somewhere in Estonia
This is where Tallinn’s singing festivals and great concerts take place. Estonia is a singing nation
A reflection from and about the Estonian people
