Hi Victória,

good to see you again after a long time...
I'll check it out, right now on YouTube that singer you recommended for us.

P.S. - Esperanza (spanish) = Esperança (portuguese) = Hope (english)

Nice find! I must confess that I'm surprised, because is not too common to see a woman on the bass. I think is cool anyway, sweet voice she have... and more: I find out she can sing in english, spanish and portuguese. That's great!

Thanks for sharing.

Very much welcome , Samuel! Always in the mission to spread good music around.
Her name does mean "hope" . Its soo pretty i think im going to steal it for my future 2nd daughter , the first is obvioulsy going to be Diana and the third will be,,, Ella !!And if I have a boy...mm Joshua is my fav
Im not pregnant , just to be clear! I have a boyfriend but no diapers plans as of yet. I'd love to have a big family, with 4 children, as I grew up in one . I honestly dont know how my mom pulled it off.
Ah well , time will tell..How are things in your end, Samuel?

[Samuel]

So Victoria,

you have been asked a hard stuff to me. Actually I don't have a girfriend or any plans to create a new family because I live with my parents and sister yet.

In my end, still cloudy because I'm in doubt about it, I can see myself working inside a laboratory (I'm student of chemistry) and maybe with a family... who knows...

I really need a bit of time to know what I really plan to the future.
I'll keep you informed

Its ok Samuel, just take your time and wait for the right person. Voce deve tem Esperanza , hehe. Isso es otimo? Eu nao conheco muito de Portugues. sorry! I vacatiooned in Brazil several times but never got to learn the language unfortunately , mais eu comprindo a gente quando falan portugues. . its a beautiful language.

[Samuel]

Victoria!!!

NICEEEE... you really seemed knows portuguese because I understood very well what you've said. I think you're ready to sing the portuguese songs from "Diana Krall - Live in Rio".

Ahh. and of course, Thanks a lot for the advice.

Samuel:
Eu sou muito obrigada que voce gosta muito o meu portugues. Eu sou uma fanatica de Gal Costa , Bebel Gilberto and lots other bossa nova musicians. Languages are my passion, but unfortunately i dont have enough time to devote to learnng a new one right now. Eu sou uma perfeccionista. hehe. Conheco um poquinho de frances e mais nada de aleman. ah well...

Cheers,
Vicky

Vicky:

então agora é só continuar treinando para ficar cada vez melhor!
Sobre a música brasileira, é muito estranho, mas a Bossa Nova não é tão popular quanto deveria ser aqui no Brasil...

Stay cool,
Sam.
